10 BEST ATTRACTIONS OF MELBOURNE
Affectionately called Marvellous Melbourne during the gold rush of the 1850s, the name is still used today for Australia's second largest city. Located on the banks of the Yarra River, near the entrance to Port Phillip Bay, Melbourne is a modern metropolis steeped in history. Melbourne is a city for all seasons. From wandering the hidden laneways and grand tree-lined streets to the acres of city gardens and parklands surrounding the CBD, Melbourne is vibrant, elegant, and multicultural.So let’s have a small visit of it.
• Yarra River Cruise
A river boat cruise is not only the perfect way to see the sights, it's also an insight into the history of the Yarra River. Many cruise companies can be found along Southbank and take in places such as Birrarung Marr, originally called Birrarung meaning river of mists and shadows, a parkland celebrating the Aboriginal ties with the Yarra River. Another popular cruise goes across to historic Williamstown where visitors can spend time exploring this quaint seaside port.
• Docklands
Docklands is Melbourne's newest precinct. With the highest concentration of green-star rated buildings in the southern hemisphere, the waterfront satellite village is filled with cafés, restaurants, and parklands. The view from the giant observation wheel, The Melbourne Star is spectacular, and the area also houses Etihad Stadium and the Icehouse, a world-class ice sports venue. There is also an art and vintage market held along the waterfront every Sunday.
• Queen Victoria Market
A popular place with locals and tourists, this historic icon has been at the centre of fresh produce shopping since 1878. In addition to the magnificent food halls, market stalls sell everything from clothing, art, and toys to that hard-to-find unique souvenir, five days a week. Tours are available, and special events such as night markets, music concerts, and other functions are often held during summer.
• Melbourne Zoo
Although the 22 hectares of Melbourne Zoo dates back to 1862, the 320 species of animals have the best of modern facilities in state-of-the-art enclosures. The award-winning Trail of the Elephants is an insight into the lives of the resident Asian elephants in a traditional village-garden setting. Another highlight is the Orang-utan Sanctuary where the animals live in their treetop home. With many wild encounters including roar and snore, twilight music concerts, and behind-the-scene tours of some enclosures, Melbourne Zoo offers visitors many innovative experiences.
• Melbourne Museum and Royal Exhibition Building
A short tram ride from the CBD, the Melbourne Museum is surrounded by beautiful gardens and parkland. This modern purpose-built museum houses a diverse collection depicting society and cultures. Highlights include the Aboriginal Centre, Bunjilaka, the children's museum, and The Blue Box a cube protruding off the side of the building. The gallery is a series of hands-on activities designed to stimulate and engage children. Adjacent to the Melbourne Museum is the elaborate Royal Exhibition Building. Built in 1880 to host Melbourne's International Exhibition, the building also held the first Commonwealth Parliament of Australia in 1901. Regular tours are available and the building is still used for exhibitions and special events.
• Arcades and Laneways
Wandering the labyrinth of lane and alleyways around Flinders, Collins, and Bourke Streets is elegant, interesting, and quirky Melbourne at its best. The jewel in the crown is the magnificent Block Arcade in Collins Street. With its mosaic floor, period details, and unique shops, this is the place where late 19th-century gentry promenaded, coining the phrase, doing the block. It's worth queuing for a morning or afternoon tea at the Hopetoun Tearooms. This Melbourne icon dates back to 1892 and is the only original shop still in the arcade today. The opulent Royal Arcade is Melbourne's oldest arcade and Flinders and Degraves Lanes are also well worth exploring. Several companies run guided walking tours of the lanes and alleyways.

31st March 2018 Easter at Hopetoun WA
We hadn't been to Hopetoun for over 10 years, the town has really grown but there are a lot of empty homes after the mine closure at Ravensthorpe. We did a tour East and West of the town to see the flood damage that happened in 2017. I think it was the first time the Phillips River forced the Culham Inlet to flow into the ocean since 1993. There must have been a huge amount of water as you can see debris from the flood 3-4m high in the trees from the parking areas and the bridge over the Jerdacuttup River. All in all a great weekend and a great place for 4WD fun and camping. I definitely won't wait another 10 years before I go back. Thanks Russ and Anne for your hospitality.

Easter 2018 at Hoptoun WA
On Easter Sunday we all went West on a 4WD adventure to Quoin Head. Its only about 50kms or so drive from Hopetoun past Culham Inlet and Mt Barren. The headland at Quoin Head protects a beautiful little inlet and beach sheltered from the wind on an otherwise rugged coastline. The drive in is spectacular but fun and definitely a 4WD with good clearance is needed.
We stopped in at Hammersley Inlet on the way back to Hopetoun and had a look around there too. Another great Camping and picnic destination in the Fitzgerald River National Park. I really need to spend a few weeks at Hopetoun to have a really good look around. Plenty of exploring to do thats for sure.
