G'day, Well I have woken feeling a bit more normal today, the husband is still sleeping. Yesterday managed to get 4 hours sleep, so decided to explore down town. Got the tram into the city, only about a 15 to 20 minute ride. Very easy to use and convenient. Armed with our map we thought we would head off and find the 'laneways', they are alleyways of 'graffiti' apparently Melbourne is known for this. Infact all through little lanes and alleyways you walk down there are fabulous cafes and bars, a very nice vibe to it all. This is when me and Stu definitely know we are city people !! We continued walking around looking at the buildings, people very friendly here, if your armed with a map, they want to help. Suddenly 2.00 pm came 'BOOM' that jet lagged feeling came, said to Stu I need to lie down anywhere, the park will do, 'Nope he said, coffee time' so down a quaint little lane we go to a coffee place called 'madamimadam'. I said to the man, how do you say that, he said 'Madam I'm Adam'. Well for some reason that just tickled me, I think I was severely jet lagged !!!
Last night we went to an open air movie show. It was held in the botanic gardens, they are immaculate, not a piece of litter in sight ! and you lie down on bean bags with blankets over you, well that set me off, thought I was in my bed, at one stage my 'snore' woke me up !!
