Day 16: Winter strolls

Another stunning day in Melbourne so a walk up the Yarra River was a great start to the morning. I did make a crucial area and left my sunglasses in the apartment! As mentioned yesterday when I was here 15 years ago I took some similar photos to what I took today. I won’t bore you with the before and after photos but today the sky was so blue! We walked up from Southbank to the Olympic Park then back round to Flinders Street Station to buy a Myki card for use on public transport. Just a casual 5.63km.

The plan for the afternoon was to meet Pam, Pam is my Australian mum 😍. We caught the tram down to St.Kilda, grabbed some lunch from Wedge (thanks to Pam) and then walked to Port Melbourne. In our heads after the mornings adventure we both thought we would be strolling along the sea front in glorious sunshine – catching some winter rays. Alas, we were battling a head wind for 5km and I’m not going to lie my ears were cold 😂. Non the less it was a nice but refreshing walk.

After a pit stop coffee with another friend of Doms we headed to the convention centre to meet Stricko and try and buy a bike for baby Noah, which was a success. The evening consisted of a very nice steak dinner and some red wine. We are leaving the city in the morning, I will probably head back in at some point – we shall see 🤷🏻‍♀️.
