Lots of choices...how about some Kangaroo?

Oysters, AU$22.99/dozen; that's ~US$1.40/ea

Clothes, hats, wool products. J9 purchased a beautiful wool sweater.

The longest line at the market was for donuts. Really??? but it's the truth

Flowers. Australian flowers are so rugged they feel like plastic, but they're real..

The market place is walking distance from the city center. Really interesting architecture.

The wiki page indicated Melbourne is the Australian Paris.

There are a lot of interesting smaller side-streets that have a variety of dining options.

The Presbyterian church has Korean services on Sunday and a Koreatown was just officially created

Following the Australian book walking tour led us to this area where graffiti is allowed.

In the Museum of Screen Culture was a demo of an earlier form of animation. It starts like this....

...and as the object spins the animation begins. Kinda old school, but still kinda cool.

Melbourne Day 1

29 september 2024, Australien ⋅ ☀️ 57 °F

Each day brings a requirement to be flexible. We like starting
a city visit with a Hop on Hop off bus, but Melbourne no longer has one :)
Option 2 is to go for a city walk using an Australian tour book, but it's going to rain till 4 pm. Option 3 is to visit the local marketplace called Victorian Market Place. It a safe bet since it will keep us dry.
This marketplace is advertised as the largest marketplace in Australia, and most likely, it's true. After the marketplace, it stopped raining, so we walked a good portion of the self guided walking tour of Melbourne, ending our day back in the Executive Happy Hour at the Hilton.Läs mer
