Melbourne is a pretty neat city. It is very multicultural and there's a well established art scene. Melbourne has a certain vibe to it that I like a lot. I must say I'm enjoying my time in Melbourne more so than my time in Sydney. I went to the art museums in Melbourne, which were interesting (and free!). There's a Disney exhibit at one of the museums that I am going find the time and money to visit before I leave. I went to the Melbourne Aquarium, which was neat. It had sea dragons and penguins and hammerhead sharks. Speaking of penguins, I went out to St. Kilda on Gemma's advice and wandered around the beach yesterday. Nestled amongst the rocks of a breaker there's a colony of penguins. They come out at dawn and dusk to hunt for food and during the day they can be spotted in the rocks of the breaker. Seeing glimpses of the penguins alone was worth the tram ride out to St. Kilda.
My plans have changed a bit. I was due to head out to the farm yesterday, the hosts had a few things going on and said if I wanted to wait until after New Year's I can. So I will be spending New Years in Melbourne, which I am looking forward to.
