Melbourne Part 2

Ok, so walking to Federation Square from Kt. Kilda sounds like a good idea.

It's 3.5 miles one way. I walked over 7 miles a day. No wonder my feets have blisters.

Oh well, got to see everything I wanted to while I was here. Wish I had more time to spend in the various different places, but alas, I must travel on.

I'm heading to Cairns in the morning. Should be good fun.

Rock on my loves~

Melbourne

This is what I have done thus far in Melbourne:

I took a shower, cracked open my jar of peanut butter, and tried to sleep.

Got up in the morning, got dressed, walked from St. Kilda to Melbourne. Takes about an hour.

Found the 5oth anniversary of Barbie, was kind of disappointed, bought a bag.

Found the Art Gallery, It had a Dali Exhibit. Went to that and was very happy. Walked the rest of the gallery, and found a Henry Moore sculpture and almost cried.

Walked home, finding a 7-11. Got a Slurpee and donut for a total of $4. A $3 Slurpee never tasted so good.

Going to the museum tomorrow to find the Ned Kelly exhibit.

Rock on my loves~

Packing

I have never liked packing to go home. This time is the hardest, mostly because it's going on home before I am. I'll be following it shortly so no worries on that one.

I miss everyone heaps and I can't wait to drive.

I get all sorts of antsy at times, mostly because I can't go and take care if it myself. I hate being dependent on others even though I know that Mary-Pat and Ted really don't mind.

Although today I said windscreen. Not windshield.... The transition has begun.

Not only that, I actually was cold today at school. For the first time. Not cold enough to put on the winter jacket, but chilled. The wind blew just right.

So my dears, I'll be off sooner then I think. See you all then.

Rock on my loves~

Journey

So I'll be heading on with my travels Thursday, the 25. Which is also my mom's birthday.

I'll be going to Melbourne until the 29, then Cairns until July 3, then Brisbane until July 7, then Sydney until July 11, then New Zealand until July 23. Then home.

I'm currently avoiding packing my suitcase to send to my parents.

Gifts and what not are inside. I'm going to lock it and not send the key home so my parents have to wait until I come home to open it. :)

I'll be home sooner then later my loves.

Rock on
