Today I had a Melbourne day and it was sooooooooo much fun! I must warn you granny I am a bit tipsy so my spelling may be worse than normal but I will try and work out how to use spell check! Idid brunch with Elisa ( couch surfer friend) and some of her girlfriends. Apparently burnch is a very Melbourne thing to do, to me I just liked it because it felt like a scene from sex in the city.

Anyway tonight was the last night that The Victoria Market was hosting the night market so I thought I would check it out with Lesley. It w...
