Take Time To Enjoy It — 2 years ago
Just hours fresh from leaving Melbourne.
It felt weird at first. To me, it’s just very different from Sydney. It takes time to get used to the trams, and if you are driving, the hook turns.
But after a Scenic Chopper ride over the Great Ocean Road, how could i not love this city and its surrounding beauty.
My favourite memories of Melbourne start from the amazing solemnity at the Shrine of Remembrance, the suburbarnism of Beacon Cove, the very amazement and humbling experience of the little penguins marching onto shore at Phillip Island, the scenery at Fort Nepean, to the foreshores of little homely towns like Port Campbell and Cowes.
The city itself is compact enough to walk. Also don’t forget Queen Victoria Market for some usual touristy purchases.
I’m still so flattered by Aussie hospitality and the sincerity they exude when hitting the stores at Swanston Street. Or maybe it is just me and the surf shops- Haha.
