Day 20 - big city lights and the end of the journey

Tonight is the last night of our tavellin south holiday and I'm both happy and sad to be going home on the plane tomorrow. We left Bendigo and caught the train to Melbourne this morning - thanks Dianne for driving us to the station. Southern Cross Station is quite unique with it's large sails forming the roof. Walked up La Trobe St from Central Station to our apartment in Exploration Lane - right in the middle of Melbourne.

Walked around for an hour looking for a pub and a meal and couldn't find one - very different to what we've become used to in Bendigo (how many pubs would you pass if you walked around Bendigo for an hour , a dozen??) Caught the free tram right around the loop - how good is free transport?
Had a beer and dinner in Lygon Street just up the road and then watched the sunset over the city.

Terry is getting better with his phobia of heights.


We've had a fabulous holiday - thanks to everyone for letting us stay - hope we can do some more tavelling south again next year too 


MERRY CHRISTMAS
