Im bloody loving it....This afternoon ive been to The Aquarium and The Immigrants Museum.Both were really good.
Im staying in a half decent hostel on Flinders Street its quite big and there is a girl in my dorm

I arrived yesterday to see Prince's mug splashed on the front page of MX

Where all the Melbourne orgers at????

I never been to the immigrants museum I don't even know what is in there

aquarium is nice, though I feel sorry for those giant spider crabs

ZombieKitten said:

The spider crabs were dead scary and there is a shark who seems to be quite a bit overweight.The scuba diver was a nice touch he should maybe tie a rack of lamb to his feet for even more entertainment.

Crown All i can do is go to the restaurants there Sucks being 17...

I like the Aquarium too muirdo. Went there a while ago but it was very enjoyable. Never been to the immigrants museum lol not too into aussie history

You'll love IMAX though, although watch out if you get motion sickness

You should check around the city for little cafes in alleyways and such, you can find some really cute hippy type places...or you could just find the nearest starbucks

Make sure you go to the top of the Rialto Tower and the new Eureka Tower. I've been to the top of the Rialto a million times but the Eureka's so new haven't been there yet but there's some room you go in where the floor is made of glass

Check out the Docklands at night too, very VERY posh. It's right near the water too so it's quite glam.

Hell, there's a million places to go

Paul while you're in Melbourne go to the Crown Complex... you'll see a particular restaurant which I can't remember the name of but it's Greek and they have the BEST DESERTS EVER

muirdo said:

Boo, hiss @ Sydney

At Crown there's a restaurant called Nobu and Robert De Niro owns it. There was a huge premiere for it a few months ago.
