Today i was feeling good enough to get out the house and into the sunshine. Had a relaxing morning at the house then headed off to my favourite bagel place on Degraves street. After a great bagel and a coffee we found our way across the river to the Eureka tower where we bought a pass for the sky deck on the 88th floor for a daytime and night time entry. It's apparently the highest city tower in the Southern Hemisphere, it's a residential tower with the top level windows incrusted with gold or something ridiculous. We even managed to swindle a cheeky student discount which was a bonus. The views were stunning! 360 degrees views of the city and beyond. Night time viewing was even more spectacular when the city was lit up. There was an option to do an 'edge' experience which is a glass cube that slides out from the building so your standing on glass looking down and across at the city. We were going to do this until we realised you pay for the experience and then aren't allowed to take pictures and have to pay again for their pictures which weren't that good. We walked back up to melbourne central and checked out the exhibitions there. Was pretty cool until they closed it and somehow we managed to get stuck in a lift. We came down some steps and security said for us to go round to the other side to get in the lift... So we did but evidentially not around far enough. We got in the wrong lift and just as the doors shut we realised the buttons weren't working and the lift had been turned off... Brilliant. So we tried the alarm bell which was very loud in the quiet part of the library but no one came and we were knocking on the doors, no one... Luckily I had a bit of battery left, looked up the library number and phoned the front desk... He wasn't very impressed! The security guards came back to rescue us and were bemused as to how the situation had arisen, arguing amongst themselves as the escorted us down... Highly embarrassing! Met up with Steph again finally, jumped on a tram to Brunswick street where we met Angela, another friend from our tour in Africa, for tea. We got in at the veggie bar which was all vegetarian- good for Amy but really really tasty food!! It was so good and good value for money. I had half a halloumi pizza with Amy which had a delicious red wine, tomato and caramelised onion sauce, and we shared a burrito too. We went across the street to a ice cream shop... This was no ordinary ice cream shop. The flavours were amazing! We shared a French earl grey creme brûlée which came with the caramelised top and a ferreroe reveal which had a hard chocolate top, coco pops and a chocolate syringe with gooey hot sauce. The best bit was the icecream is actually kept as fresh cream in a slush puppy style machine and to transform it into icecream they blast it with liquid nitrogen which freezes it before your eyes. We said goodbye to the others and navigated our way to the Eureka tower again for our night time viewing of the city, very much worth doing aswel as the day time viewing.
