Australia - Day 25 Melbourne Markets



Day started out with saying goodbye to Sarah, who is moving to Adelaide for her new job in Environmental Sciences and then taking the tram with Kylie (pictured here where we are showing off our new scarves) down to the Market in South Melbourne which has fresh, local produce, fish (just caught), and many local wares.  I bought my first pair of authentic Australian Ugg boots!  Then we walked to another neighborhood to meet Kylie's friend for brunch, where we met a nice couple (who have a kiln on their sailboat!) and had a nice chat.  Because I have apparently brought the rain with me (Melbourne is happy because it has been dry), we are going to a movie and will see The Boys are Back.  Tomorrow will be a tourist day for me seeing all of Melbourne.

  1. Hi Kiffy, looks like you're having a great time! NZ and Australia are two of my favorite counties (esp. NZ). We missed you during Thanksgiving - looking forward to Christmas so we can hear all about your trip. (Hey, maybe you can set up Dad's old slide projector :)
    We miss & love you!
