Free Tour.... our favorite word ....FREE.



Marissa was so excited to watch, "Into the woods" at the 
Moonlight Cinema at the Royal Botanical Gardens, 
Melbourne. We soon realized our zeal to see an outdoor movie fizzled a little as we were ill prepared, arriving without enough blankets and no pillows to be comfortable. However, we still enjoyed the adventure of watching a movie under the stars... and big bats. It also helped that with our Telstra cell phone discount we only paid $11AUD instead of $20AUD.


Here is our colorful feathery friend who sat posed for us while we attended the, "I'm Free" Melbourne tour. The tour guides are fantastic as they navigated a huge crowed for almost 3 hours through the historic streets of Melbourne. They share the rich (and sometimes not so flattering) history of Melbourne.


"O Romeo, Romeo wherefore art thou Romeo?" 
Where is Juliet, we might ask?


Graffiti is both a huge problem and beautiful art in Melbourne. It is against the law to graffiti anywhere in Melbourne with the exception of a few areas where both business and the artists work together to preserve the beauty of street art. In some places it is typical tagging and is an eyesore, but as demonstrated here it can help create both a visual and cultural delight.
