The MelBourne Identity

The forecast for cloudy weather proved wrong, and we spent a beautiful day seeing just a few of the sites in Melbourne. This city is quite different than Sydney in its feel and architecture--and a bit more treacherous as you have to watch out for the trams and so much cross traffic. (Whoever heard of making a right hand turn from the left lane when the light turns red?) First, we putzed around Queen Victoria Market which sells trinkets from all over the world. Then we boarded the free visitor shuttle which stops at all the major sites in the city. Because of Allan's never ending search for local brewery glasses, we walked a couple of miles to a brewery (which evidently was not considered a major site) that was closed and didn't have beer glasses anyway. Good exercise anyway, eh mate?
