Day 10 – Melbourne – 10 Aug 2015

Left this morning at 7 and got back at 7! We headed for the local train station at Gowrie and caught the train into Flinders Street Station, which took about half an hour. Had breakfast in the station whilst Maria wandered around. From there we caught a tram down to the Docklands and did lots of wandering around the streets. The Melbourne Star (giant ferris wheel) is located here as well as heaps of shops and restaurants. Lots of virtuals here, untouched by Maria, I had got a lot of them when here in January, but there were lots of new ones and lots of physicals as well. Back along the harbour we had lunch at a lovely bakery and kept going. Finally for a break we caught the city circle tram and rode around in that for an hour or so, capping virtuals as we went. Walked up and down the cbd for a little while and then about 4 we caught the train back to our station and then drove back towards Melbourne and Princes Park to make a start on the boomerang virtual garden. We had to drive through quite a lot of rain, but it had stopped by the time we got to the park. Stopped off for some supper – 2 minute noodles, and then back to the motel to cook and eat them!! Leaving here just before 7 for the airport and the flight home.
