We flew back to Melbourne for our last couple of nights in Australia (this time).
We explored the White Nights festival on the first night. We took the tram to the Carlton Gardens. A fire dragon was outside the Melbourne Museum.
The coolest thing was the ~15-minute light (and audio) show projected onto the Royal Exhibition building. The visuals showed the edifice being continually built and torn down, with invasions by serpents and lasers, and well, let’s go to some pictures.
I found an app (Lively) that lets you convert your “live” iPhone photos to animated gifs (used here) or short videos.
The next morning was a grooming morning. Haircut for me, manicure for Leena. Here’s a shot from my walk home from the barber. High Street in the Northcote neighborhood.
Feeling spiffy, we took a walk down the Merri Creek Trail to the Yarra River and grabbed lunch at the Studley Park Boat House. After a selfie.
For the evening, we headed to Brighton Beach to check out the Brighton Beach Boxes.
I’m not into bird watching, and Leena really doesn’t like birds (there’s a story there), but she did spot this one on the walk home.
Until next time Australia. We love it here!
