A short trip to Melbourne

12 Rocks Beach Bar Cafe.

The eatery was a short stroll across where we stayed, also Port Campbell beach was barely 2 min walk across.

Medium rare turned out medium (again), seems like a recurring theme.

Too much sodium chloride for a kid's pizza.

Ya

or sometimes the situation or light is so good that you took a spate of many shots that are all good but all too similar but you still got to choose only one to avoid repetition

and what is the white dots on the ground? The bird is nice but im curious of the ground

I prefer Sydney over Melbourne, maybe it's just me.

But Great Ocean Road above these two.

Been to MEL 3 times over last 2 years. But last week was the 1st staying in CBD.
Really shocked walking on the streets at least half are Asians.

TarraWarra Yarra Valley Winery, an hour+ of driving from Melbourne CBD.

The estate also houses a small museum of art, with a hands on art and craft area for kids.

At Cellar Door,

Abit of a queue, had to wait >30 mins for our turn.

" How come I cannot drink the grape juice ? "

Simple wine tasting.

Most definitely too.

My initial thought was to "exaggerate" the pour by angling the wide lens from bottom up. Shutter speed might have been abit too slow to really freeze the liquid/wine

Will be painful if do 3-4 cab rides a day. That could be the price of a night's stay in a decent hotel.

Price of my cab from airport to hotel in CBD was 80+ AUD.

Cab driver was probably Ethiopian.

Not sure about other nationalities/races, but in some parts of CBD, it felt like asians were at least 1/3 of demographics. I am of course not complaining.
