melbourne Today we woke fairly early for a big day. We headed down to the yarra and walked around for a bit. The we were on our way to the Eureka sky tower! In our travels we came across 2 Irish street preformers! No one else had stopped but we thought they looked hilerious so stopped to watch. (Which im so glad we did now!) At first they were quite average.. but VERY funny!! Once they got into it more, you could see they clearly had a talent!!! Such a good start to the day. They were called Lord of strut, check em out! =)
I had been to the Eureka tower before, but my brother hadn't so we went there. Im terrified of heights, but ever since climbing the Sydney Harbour Bridge I'm more ok with heights. My brother was going to climb the tower, but i think my mum chickened him out!!
We headed for the Aquarium, and came across a few more talents on the yarra river. One was a "bus passanger" leaning to one side which was pretty cool, and the other was a guy who drew amazing pictures with chalk!!
They have a new penguin exbitition and
station
station they were sooo cute! they kept following me! They had cute little feet and i just couldnt get over how cute they were! I could have stayed for hours! I do like seeing the sharks, and string rays at aquariums but i really enjoy the sea turtles(love turtles) and the dangerous little animals.. like stone fish, jelly fish, blue ring occys etc! I was very happy to see the sea turtles because in sydney i didnt get to see any! BOO!! so was really happy seeing a very active one!
We booked a ghost tour at the melbourne old gaol. I have been here before, but was amazing to view it all at night. It was by far freaky! I live in Adelaide and have done the adelaide haunted tour, and wasnt that "freaked out".. the new section in the adelaide gaol at night was freaky, but i knew this as during the day its freaky.. its also been known as the most haunted area in the adelaide gaol, and ghost hunters have witnessed alot there. BUT..melbourne gaol was very creepy! Not very big, but that didnt matter. When i had gone there during the day a few years back
Lord of Strut
Lord of Strut i felt weird being there too and heard creepy noises. It was ALOT more creepier at night, i felt like someone was watching me the whole time, and i didnt feel right walking past the cell doors!
Off to bed, and another early day tomorrow!
