Melbourne

January 9.2009.



Arrived in Melbourne- staying a relatives in Epping. On Saturday we went down to city , by tram, train and just walking. Walked through the Victoria market, large food, clothing market. Would love to just pick up the food, fish and meat part and export it to Prince George. There is nothing that you can not find in it. Had lunch in the market, tried something different. Lebanese. We sat out and ate and had live music to enjoy. Another thing to export.



Went to the Ron Laver park where the Australian Open is played and also around the lake in the city where the Grand Prix races are held in Australia.

Had not charged the batteries for the camera so did not get any photos.



Turned in the camper van - was too costly on gas. Have now rented a small SUV and will continue the trip in that.



Going to do the great ocean highway tomorrow and for the next day. Then off to Portland to see some more relatives. The Logan's. Then we are going to Adelaide and on to Alice Springs etc.

Hi Alice and Donna, Sounds like you are busy. We arrived in B'dos on Thurs. No flight disruptions for us. The first time in a month-so said an Air Canada hostess. We are so blest!!! Even our luggage flew with us. Things just the same here. We will stay at the same apt. but a different unit. They have built a lovely boardwalk along the beach starting from the apt. all the way to the beach we usually go to. No more dodging traffic.
Have a wonderful remainder of your trip. Talk to you later. Wallace and Rosemary
