Today is the last day of our stay in Melbourne. Thus, we decided to wake up late. We woke up at about 10am and stay at the casino playing jackpot (we won about AUD$150 using only AUD$5!!!) till about 1300h before we made our way to the floral clock at Queen Victoria Gardens and Victorian Arts Centre.

Started to make our way back to the Hotel for the airport transfer at 1430h. On our way back, I could not resist but had to take a photo of the "Effiel Tower" on top of the Victorian Arts Centre. It would look nicer at night though....sigh..

One last shot of the Flinders St Station as we walk back to the Crown Towers Hotel... One of the most beautiful building in the night around Melbourne city.

Today is the last day of my stay here in Melbourne. At 1700h, we are on the plane waiting to return
to Singapore. It has been a very fruitful and fun trip. We will definitely be back in the near future.
There is still so much to see and do. Did not go to the Haunted Bookshop, Queen Victoria Market,
the Melbourne Gaol and so much more. My advice to those coming to Melbourne, try to stay at least a
week here to experience the most out of Melbourne.
Well, I hope that my travelogue Melbourne has provided you with an insight of Melbourne and which are the must-go attractions (IMHO). Will definitely be adding to my travelogue as I visit other countries and places. In this way, it will not only serve as a remembrance for myself and a help to those who intend to go to those countries. |
