MELBOURNE

SO WE GOT BACK ON SUNDAY NIGHT after three days of Melburnian fun. It was great.
I'm totally regretting moving to Sydney. Linus, if you're reading this: Don't move to Sydney, even if you wanted to be with friends. I take back all those things I said about it being ok. It is ok, but Melbourne is better. Move there instead and I'll come and visit!

Jamiroquai
An odd thing to see at 9.30 at night; some guy dressed like this doing tai chi. He wasn't asking for money either.

Lane
Just outside an amazing tapas place, across the road from Fed Square.

Wayne!
Wayne Brady and co in Fitzroy.

Zombies 3
Zombies crossing the road. There were literally hundreds of them. More photos on Flickr.

Return
Return to South Melbourne Beach to reshoot an old photo.

MelbourneFood
All the food we ate while there; breakfast x3, lunch x1, dinner x3.
I'd definitely recommend Movida, the tapas place. Try the chilled citrus and mint soup with cinnamon dumplings and melon. Also, try the pate with fennel and chocolate drizzle. Oh, and the anchovy with salmon sorbet! ALL AMAZINGLY GOOD!

Also, proof that Sydney is lame.
Backstory: I'm walking down the street in Bondi Beach and wearing a scarf.
SURFER: "You know what I really hate?"
OTHER SURFER: "What?"
SURFER: "Scarves. The next person I see I'm gonna bash."

What is the deal with the anti-scarf sentiment? I've heard things of this nature three times now. What is the deal!?

Amazing. I saw the tinsel dude getting on the 96 tram on Nicholson St Fitzroy earlier in the evening.
