27. Melbourne

Monday, 19 NOV 2012

The skyline of Melbourne city center from the deck of the MS Volendam at dock. The ship in the photo is the ferry Spirit of Tasmania, which we will ride from Melbourne to Devonport, Tasmania, in early January when we come back this way.

We took an excursion up into the Dandenong Mountains (hills!) northeast of the city. This is a view from a hilltop restaurant/visitors center.

The distant skyline of Melbourne:

This establishment had a very nice English Garden. This day it was featuring some xxx-rated entertainment. There were several couples in the garden shamelessly "going at it" right out there in public. I don't mean to endorse pornography, but here is nature in the raw!

{ In case the blogmaster censors this part, above are two photos of bugs copulating. }

Here are a couple of the beautiful flowers in the garden:

 

Here is some of the more interesting statuary in the garden.

Farewell, Melbourne.
