Another FREE Tour?

We enjoyed the Free walking tour so much in Sydney and learned so much.... why not do the same in Melbourne?

Anyone up for some exercise?

Melbourne prides themselves in their Graffiti Artwork amongst
many of the alleyways through out the downtown area.  Some
are so intricate and detailed it seems a shame that they are not

perhaps in a gallery waiting to be

shared with the world.

More of downtown Melbourne's artwork.

This is not only a trolley but a moving restaurant. No need for additional entertainment!

Who doesn't like cute little penguins?  Apparently in the evening they come up on the rocks in the St. Kilda Marina where our friend, Andrew keeps his boat. Although we accompanied him there before lunch, we were hopeful that we would see something. No luck! Hopefully when we return to Melbourne. 

The wind in St. Kilda was so strong the birds in the video  where almost standing still in the air.  Entertaining....

How would you enjoy a little time in the hot tub about 15 -20 stories up .....hanging over the ledge?

We met a couple on the pier in Sydney that ended up at the same hotel in Melbourne with us, we enjoyed a great conversation that night on the pier so while Renee's husband was working she joined us sightseeing for a few days.  She braved the wild wind of St. Kilda then enjoyed a beautiful walk through the Botanical Gardens with us to the quint Tea Garden Restaurant.

Our 'Clean Up-Crew' was a few local birds that must of been a bit hungry.  

Travel Saving Tips:

1- Find FREE or inexpensive tours where ever you are going by googling the area and ideas for your destination. The FREE tours that we found were incredible and of course, we left a tip.

2- Take the opportunity to find out places that are free to visit in the area such as museums, botanical gardens, etc... In Melbourne the Botanical Garden is free.
