14 Jan 08 -- 18 Jan 08
The last week of work kept me busy with pretty much no time to do any site seeing. Most of the week's highlights were dinner. On the last night, I decided to go take some evening and night pictures around the city.
Monday's Dinner. Some KFC wrap.
Tuesday's Dinner, Fish and Chips at the Corkman. I think it was 12 AU.
Wednesday, back at the Corkman.
300g Steak and all these for just 14.50 AU.
Walking in the CBD. It is summer. I have to wait till about 9:30pm to take night shots!
Flinders Street Station at sunset, it looks even better at night with the lighting (see below)
Some church opposite the station
A bridge across the Yarra River to South Gate (some place with restaurants)
Skyline at sunset. It is still not dark!
This bridge had statistics of all the migrants to Victoria, Australia
It is getting darker
Crown Casino
Finally the sun is gone! Skyline with Flinders Street Station in the foreground.
Ferris Wheel
Suddenly I heard something coming out of the water. It's a family of black swans. The little ones tried to scare me off.
The Arts Center
Last take of the river view. Time to walk back
Flinders Street Station on my way back
I decided to tram back
Some memorial at a park on the way back
Last stop-by at the Corkman
*Slurp*
Spot anything interesting?
Cigarette Dispenser
Back at work the next day, leaving at lunchtime
Waiting for my flight
Check out the technology used to load the aircraft
Haven't had curry in a long while!
Snack
The flight back was much better. The entertainment system had video on demand.
Hence I spent the entire flight sipping wine and watching movies like Balls of Fury,
and some others that I cannot remember. However I did remember "The Brave One" starring Jodie Foster
that I did not manage to complete before touch down.
It was so boring, I was glad I did not spend to watch it on the big screen.
Thus ends my two weeks in Melbourne. Nice.
