Skydeck 88 is the observation deck of Melbourne's Eureka Tower. Eureka Tower is Melbourne's tallest building and is Australia's second tallest building. After the Burj Dubai, Eureka Tower is the second tallest residential building in the world.
The 88th floor of the tower is dedicated to an obs…

I only had one full day to see what Melbourne offered, so I decided to see the Melbourne Aquarium, Museum, and Eureka Tower. I started my day in the Melbourne Aquarium and after walking through it, I would have to say it was well laid out and I would recommend this attraction to anyone visiting Mel…

I did a lot of walking around Downtown Melbourne before I made my way over the Melbourne Museum. It was lucky that I did not waste too much time because by the time I got to the museum, I had only 1.5 hours to see everything before it closed for the day. I knew I would have to make everything I sa…

This is a cute little lane called Degraves Street in the heart of the Melbourne CBD. It's packed with tiny little cafes, with the best coffee found in Australia (who makes coffee better than the italians?).
It's average priced if you want to sit down and have something to eat or drink, but it's a…

This is a great climbing center!!! The staff are very friendly and helpful and the climbs change regularly. You will need to take a 10 minute induction class on your first visit. The centre can get quite busy, especially when scouts and other large groups take up many of the easier climbs. Perhaps c…

My sister was going to work so I basically had a day to burn on my own, and boy did I have the ride of my life. The bike rental store at Federation Square opens at 10 and closes at 5 so I basically cycled for 6 hours straight, stopping only for toilet and water breaks and pushing my bike across path…

So many climbs in the one location!!! I love this place!! It is certainly worth the drive (about 5 hours from Melbourne). There are climbs for all levels of experience!
Araps gets very, very, very busy over the easter weekend so you might have to wait for climbs - but the atmosphere is fantastic …

Camberwell Market is arguably better for Australian 'stuff' than Vic Market. At Victoria Market, if you don't want to buy something, you can go away for a few days and think about it. When you come back, it's probably still going to be there because it's a mass produced t-shirt that says 'Australia'…

Melbourne Zoo is lovely day out:)
There are a huge number of animals to visit - it will take you several hours to see them all. The butterfly house is always a favorite, if you are wearing bright colored clothes many butterflies will land on you. The elephant enclosure has been redone and is fair…

Melbourne offers a handful of attractions, but what differs Puffing Billy from the rest is the experience to recapture the romance and charm of the bygone days of steam as you enjoy a train three-hour train ride.
Built in 1900, Puffing Billy is Australia's oldest steam railway and one of the fine…

Oh I can spend hours browsing savers' racks. Sooooooo many clothes grouped by size. I found many great warm jumpers for my trip to the UK here - all for under $6!! and a few pairs of jeans as well. I think I may struggle to pay full price for clothes again. I have shopped at the Savers in Dandenong …

Wander around Melbourne's lanes and alleyways and you will find fantastic street art!!! Some of the walls are commissioned to be painted by art students. Melbourne is becoming famous for it's street art. Check out Union Lane and Hosier Lane in particular (Hosier Lane runs between Flinders Street and…

The State Library is often overlooked as a place of interest in the city of Melbourne. The imposing building is nestled amongst the rush of the city, between high density sites such as RMIT University, Melbourne Central and QV.
The library is more like a museum than I'd imagined, and holds severa…

Have a beer upstairs in the Chloe Bar - a cultural experience. Watch the world go by outside - see cosmopolitan Melbourne. Strangely reminiscent of the Foreign Correspondents' Club Upstairs in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.

Avoid this shopping centre at all costs during the christmas period!! It is soo busy and it will take you forever to get a car park. Having said that, shopping at 4am on the days leading up to christmas is a unique experience!!
