Melbourne Day 2 - Does exactly what it says on the tin, photos from my second day in Melbourne.

The Queen Victoria Market - Basically an English market


Next stop Eureka Tower, the tallest building in Melbourne. Some awesome views unsuprisingly.

This is St Kilda where I was staying. In the distance some where next to the beach.

Found this weird tent on the Soutbank so went in and it was full of crazy things like body scanners and sillohuette things that attached rubbish to you and the fail safe, face ageing machine.

And finally some of the St Kilda beach right outside the Hostel I was staying at (the big red building). The fair that was opposite and another night in the hostel.

Daylesford and the Gays

Went to Daylesford for the weekend for the gay 'Chillout Festival'. Saw the parade, met hundreds of millipedes and and watched Cockatoos and Parrots from a rain soaked porch. Enjoy!

The house where we stayed and the rain that fell trees and flooded southern Australia.

The lake opposite our house on the hill.

The gay parade. Proud to be different and deservedly so.




Festival amongst the trees.



And finally the MILLIPEDES that overun our house in there hundreds and thats no exageration!!! Possibly one of the weirdest things I've ever seen!! Oh and a nice big spider at the end for those who are squeemish.
