Melbourne Fun


July 12, 2013

Well the fun continues in the hip city of Melbourne.  Omar and I have been branching out to the different 'hoods in Melbourne to get a feel for the city.  I have been finding lots of vegan friendly options at the restaurants and today we hit gold!! - a vegan grocery story and a vegan cupcake shop.  I am also working on my Australian lingo.  Would you like to eat some fairy floss?

Mr. Moon - the opening to the amusement park in St. Kilda.   It first opened in 1912 and it still has it's eerie carni feel.

It is a FREEZING winter wonderland here in Melbourne... complete with snow.

 Acland St. in St. Kilda is famous for it's European bakeries... and yes, we did find some vegan friendly almond cookies.

A view of downtown from the Shrine of Remembrance. 

O and I in the very large and very free Royal Botanical Gardens.

Walking across the Yarra River and back into downtown Melbourne from the gardens.

Flinders Station - the old train station

Brunswick Area - very hip stores and eateries

A shout out to my coffee obsessed friends

All of Melbourne is filled with fun graffiti art through out the town.  Well, mostly all fun... Melbourne has got it's fair share of just gangsta graffiti.
