Eilan in Melbourne
eilan, 02:16h
long drive to get there, about 10 hours in the car…. Going there, we stopped in canberra, the capital of Australia. Actually it’s a very boring city being artificially designed as people were quarrelling which city (melbourne or sidney) should be the capital – none of those, so ok, let’s build one up….
what did I do in melbourne?
I played in a casino for the first time in my life – lost 50 bucks gambling black jack, but, hey, you are meant to lose, aren’t you? – I had shaking knees for about one hour afterwards, I was so nervous…
I climbed the rialto towers watching the city from above – yeah, it’s nice, but after one day of sightseeing you are like “what else is left to see now?”
lunch in chinatown – dim sums, my favourite!
cute beach houses, being about 30.000 E to buy…
next day: great ocean road – simply said fantastic: landscapes, cliffs, the ocean, the 12 apostels…. terrififc! Being for the first time in my life in a helicopter – yeah, did a ride over the apostels!!! watched the sunset, ok. very kitschig, but hey, I’m a girl, I’m allowed to, aren’t I? ;-)
on the drive there we also saw two koalas sleeping on a tree – just soooo cute, I’m thinking about taking one home with me – what do you say? ;-)
