Lorraine & I have been away for 9 days, a holiday in Melbourne. We went over on the Overland, the train that runs from Adelaide to Melbourne and also does the return journey.
We stayed in a hotel on Swanston Street, I think the prettiest street in the city. No car traffic, only trams.
Not being able to walk far, we made big use of the trams which are free in the city.
And surprisingly for Melbourne, we had lovely weather...
An 830km trip.

Lots of buskers, some of them were brilliant.

The Royal Exhibition Building is a World Heritage-listed building in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, built in 1879–1880. Probably my favourite Melbourne building.
