Living in Nova Scotia, Canada, it was one hell of a long haul to get to Australia. However, it was well worth the flight. What an incredible part of the world! Spending most of our time in and around Melbourne, we took part in a lot of outdoor, water-based activities where I simply couldn't keep the camera in a safe spot, so it stayed at home. However, we had a number of amazing sunset walks along the Port Melbourne waterfront.

I didn't stop long enough to really investigate what this giant rubber duck was all about, but interesting nonetheless.

This restaurant was little more than a hole in the wall, but managed to cram dozens of tables in on top of one another. The kitchen was incredibly small, but the efficiency was very impressive. Arriving at #94 on the wait list, we were seated within 20 minutes.
