(Sigh)
Melbourne...
It's so great.
The people are great.
The music, vibe, trams, food, skyline...the list could go on and on.

I'll be back Melbourne!
For now I'm in Darwin, we fly to Singapore tomorrow night at...00:55AM - oh the joys of budget timetables!
Here's some of the last photos of Melbourne:






- these were from the Lomond Hotel session on Monday night.

- all sessions! That's Leu and Christian in the last one there. Two great people that are hopefully coming over to visit in 2009 :)

OK here's some stats you may be interested in:

Today in Darwin it's 37degrees.
A low of 26 in the night.
Darwin is 8:30 hours ahead of home.
Melbourne was 10.
Singapore will be 7.

We spent some time earlier sorting out our plans. Planning involves these things:
- we are heading out into the outback tomorrow at 7:00AM, should be a great experience....will let you know how we get on.
In the meantime, here's the first pictures of Aboriginals on this blog:

We're quite near the largest settlement of Aboriginals in Australia, so they are a lot more numerous up here than anywhere else really, save maybe Alice Springs...but I've never been there.

I don't know why for sure, but I got a back case of the-flight-is-gonna-crash on the way up here...not cool. Not sure why, it felt like we were constantly hurtling downwards. I hope it's just a once off feeling, and not another neurotic quality to add to my list!!
OK I had better go here and collect my laundry, chat ya'll soon! :)

Nelbert - Nah I didn't get it from you, I think it's the plane I was on. They're not great lets just say!

Conor - You will indeed, stay well clear of Sydney, no matter what eejit tells you it's good. It's not, it's shite.
