From the bush to the big city! We spent 3 nights in Melbourne enjoying all the culture of the major city in Victoria. We took in an AFL game at the "G" and Matt & the boys spent one full day touring the Great Ocean Road. Here are some highlights:

Melbourne has a street art culture like we've never seen before...
from graffiti to masterpieces like the photo below |

This Aboriginal artist has painted buildings throughout the city |

An old and famous arcade filled with shops and eateries-
this mosaic was commissioned and completed by artists from Milan in the 1800s and has held up to present day |

Here we enjoyed delicious Australian desserts including Lamigtons, Pavlova & Vanilla slices- YUM! |

We attended the Indigenous Round played by the Richmond Tigers and the Essendon Bombers
and now have two passionate AFL youngster fans. |
