Melbourne Day 2 Brunswick Street

To begin our day after a good sleep in, we had to go to Queen Victoria Markets for our second attempt at having borek, after our last miserable one. By the time we got to Queen Victoria Markets it was nearly 1030am.
Not only did we have borek but fresh fruit juice, coffee and a dozen St Helen's oysters. They were plump, fresh and juicy. After such a heavy meal we walked to Brunswick Street through the lush and beautiful Carlton gardens. Passing beautiful trees, fountains and a wedding, with other couples having their photo shoot. It's putting us in the mood for a rather wedding themed trip
After walking all that way we had to stop for sustenance at Alimentari. A very busy and crowded eatery with the yummiest porchetta sandwich. There we met a nice couple from Melbourne who were going to visit Bunker Bay in 2 weeks and were very helpful recommending places to visit and eat in Melbourne.
Ruby realised she hadn't packed any thermals and was panicking that we would be cold on our campervan leg of our trip. That crisis was averted when we found the Sacred Heart Op Shop which happened to have thermals on special for $2. Such divine intervention.
We had the best coffee and hazel nut cake gelato after our big buy at the op shop.
We went specially to Brunswick Street Fitzroy the Rose Street Market and the Fitzroy Mill markets but were rather disappointed as they were much smaller and nothing appealed to us.
We did end the day well with a lovely dinner at Rice Paper Scissors at Hardware Lane for Thai fusion food. A nice reward for a 14.5km walking day.Читать далее
