Travelog post for: Meav

Hi Mum,

Today we had a trip into the city to have a look around - we got off the train at Southern Cross station and walked around the back to Docklands - this used to be the dock but has been renovated and now there are apartments, restaurants and shops and a huge sports stadium




We had a ride on the City Circle tram - it is a free tourist tram that goes around the edge of the city centre

We got off the tram at the State Parliament building - the old building over the road is one of the city's theaters

This is St Paul's cathedral

here we are on a bridge overlooking the Yarra River

This is the spire on the Arts centre building

this statue is near the Arts centre - it is called Family 2, so we decided to become part of the family!! 

Family 1 statue was missing, so we filled in instead!! 

we found this plant in the gardens near the river,

here we are by the river

Nice day today - 25 degrees C, sunny, slight breeze - very nice!!


we found this nice flower in the gardens too Mum

here we are back on the bridge - this time looking the other way - the stadium behind us is the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) where cricket and Australian Rules Football is played

here I am in Federation Square

this is Flinders Street train station

this is the train we went home on, at Southern Cross Station


On the train and heading home - I am ready for a rest now!!!

Love and hugs
Meav
