already missing melbs

We closed out our week in Melbourne with visits to neighborhoods outside of the CBD, including South Yarra/Chapel Street and St. Kilda. I can't tell you how much I loved Melbourne. Here are some photos from our last two days.

Visit to St. Kilda, a laid-back beach neighborhood located a quick tram-ride away from the CBD

(See the sunset behind me through the tram window?)

Melbourne Zoo

(Red Kangaroo - like his human-like arms?)

Finding The Croft Institute--a bar we heard was really cool (even according to Alex)--which required walking down one narrow and dodgy alley to find another dodgy alley, at the end of which the bar was located. (It was closed, but at least we found it!)

(Read the doc's advice for a good dose of some Aussie humor.)

We demand a souvenir kangaroo and koala for Drewy and Elliot. You will be disowned as an aunt if you come to LA with no live indigenous animals.

Can you get me a navy blue Melbourne t-shirt with rainbow lettering?
