we’re all going on a summer holiday

Well, when I say we, I mean Jay and I.

Due to the cost cost of the wedding and flights to have my kids over for Christmas, we didn’t have enough funds or time off to take a honeymoon straight after we got married.  So, after some deliberation and an evening checking out hotels and stuff, we’ve finally booked the trip

– a long weekend in Melbourne

I’m excited – it’ll be the first place outside the general Perth area I’ve been in Australia.

Melbourne is supposed to be pretty cool and I can’t wait to go now 🙂

So, if anyone that reads this blog hails from Melbourne – please give me some tips and suggestions for the not traditional tourist “must visits”

When I say not traditional – I don’t care about shopping or endless beaches (we have them over this side of the country too) – I care about the things that really make Melbourne and Victoria what it is.  We won’t have a car, so no expeditions to remote places – city limits or train journey only 🙂

And now, with the dulcet tones of Sir Cliff in my head, I’m off to dream of driving through Europe in a London Bus work
