Wall Art at the Ian Potter Art Museum

From esoteric art collections to the mountains of Victoria’s great divide. Such diversity. Victoria is quite amazing. What about Melbourne?

Lunch under the branches of an old  tree in the courtyard of the 1888 Building

We’ve done a bit of Tram tracking lately travelling routes their whole distance. #67 brought a stroll through the Ian Potter Art museum at the Uni to gawk at a fantastical fairy tale exhibition followed by Japanese yummies with Sav Blanc under a huge old oak tree outside the 1888 Building then all the way to the end of the line for a icy chocolate milkshake.

Phantasmagorical shapes fill the lobby of the Children's hospital

Today we took the #58 all the way to West Coburg (yeah some people do!!) then on the way back a visit to the beautifully magic lobby of the Children’s Hospital with a delish lunch - Vietnamese pork roll at Degani. Then back on the tram for a quick ride to the Queen Vic Markets to buy some Polish small goods yum!

It was time then to hop back on the #58 to go to the end of the line and back home with a stop in Sth Yarra for another ice cold chocolate milkshake - both travel days were hot!
Travelling by tram gives a new perspective lots of common place things. Two down, 23 to go - good thing we’ve got time! Another month and the pace will step up as we head overseas. More on that later.
