My wife accompanied me on one of my trips to Australia where we visited both Sydney and Melbourne (I was meeting with customers in both cities). We started in Sydney and over the weekend, we did the normal tourist stuff, like the Zoo, the Opera House and what I, being an engineer, considered the high point, the Power House Museum. While we enjoyed Sydney (I had been there several time before), when we got to Melbourne, my wife fell in love with the city. While I was in my meetings she got a pass for the trolley system and really got to see the city up close, despite the fact that it was Winter (that visit was in August 1997) and it was a bit chilly. She also discovered that Opals were cheaper in Melbourne than what she had found in Sydney

This must be the cleanest city in the world! It looks as if the residents spend a lot to maintain it as a point of pride. Your picture of the World Heritage building is the most symmetrical, balanced, images I’ve seen. Is there a worn patch in the side walk or grass where you stood to take it?
Yours is a most impressive set. You and the residents of Melbourne make excellent travel ambassadors, Thanks for sharing.
