Lately...

the street is always fun when you live in a big city. we sat here one night and listened to street performers

 pepsi max at 711 is soooo expensive. i never buy it there...well, almost never

this zoo is cool. all the animals are out in the open

even the kangaroos

a nice view of the city from the river

another nice view of the city from the river :)

 i thought this was funny

 these TimTams are new and they are delicious! 

"The Fresh Pear", where I've been spending most of my time ;)

 as you can see it is pretty amazing

it's all about presentation

 this is the back of the stand

 kiwiberry; a cross between a kiwi fruit and blueberry. from New Zealand, obviousy

  the fairfield boathouse where we had brunch last week with some friends

we fed the duckies

and Doug and Matt rowed our little canoe down the Yarra river...it was fun! 

cheesy fries with gravy

apparently this is also a British/Canadian thing

it's so nasty and delicious! 

everything Melbourne in 30 seconds

this is just a silly ad for a morning radio show   
I love it because it shows fun highlights of the city

Melbourne!

Australian Open!

I went to "the tennis" (that's what the Aussies call it) twice.

Heidi and I went the first day and saw Federer, Wazi-whatever her name is, and Sharapova.

It was all first round so the games were short but it was still cool to be in the
Rod Laver Arena.

We were really excited.

As you can tell by my attire it wasn't very warm out. 

It was overcast and about 75 degrees. 

Doug and I went the next Friday and saw Andy Roddick.

He won the 4th round and he has A LOT of fans.

Andy Roddick won 

The Hisense Arena. Our seats were really close. 

And it was kind of cold in the shade.
