Melbourne! (Part 2)

Saturday we had a late start because we were pretty exhausted and wanted to sleep in. Then we made some calls home, and we saw Terry's apartment. He has an awesome view and a really cute apartment. Two people could probably live there together, if they really loved each other, but it would definitely be too small for three. But for Terry, it's wonderful. One whole wall is made of windows with a view of the city!








After seeing Terry's house, we went to the Queen Victoria Market. They had shoes, t-shirts, postcards, purses, and anything else you could ever want to buy. 


Then we saw another market, the Federation Square Book Market!


 We spent hours in the National Gallery of Victoria, which is really impressive!





We ate dinner at Lord of the Fries! It's a Melbourne specialty, and it was very good. Fries are fries, of course, but they also had really cool sauces for the fries, and veggie burgers!


 Then we saw a play called The Gift. I don't want to spoil it for you, but I do recommend it.
In three nights we've seen a comic opera, a Shakespeare play, and an Australian play. I feel very sophisticated now!
