Going through some old photos of our trip to Australia 3 years ago, I decided to take a trip down memory lane and take you along with me.
My daughter Candice and husband Mark lived in Melbourne at the time with their two young daughters, Mila and Eva. They now live in Brisbane and just love it there.
Peter and I enjoyed our stay very much, just loved how clean and organized everything is there.
Melbourne City Center fascinated us with all the Graffiti and the vibe was exhilarating.
Walls are covered with Graffiti every where, in alley ways, on shop walls, it is quite amazing.
A quaint little Italian Restaurant, my favorite eating spot, pasta and Italian food to die for.
We took a drive down the coast to Bells Beach ,which is located 100 km south-west of Melbourne. The beach is named after a man named William Bell, a Master Mariner, who owned most of the property there since the 1840s.
Bells beach is a popular surfers beach, a place to be if you like surfing.
One of the most fascinating places we went to was the Art Park in Melbourne. We saw the most beautiful bigger than life size Sculptures.
Being Artists ourselves, this really made our day.
Another amazing place we went to was the William Ricketts Sanctuary.
The Artist William Ricketts, dedicated his life to the indigenous people of Australia, he is remembered by his works at this forest sanctuary for his deep admiration for the Aboriginal people.
The amazing Art work this man has done is displayed through out the Sanctuary.
We were amazed by some beautiful modern buildings in the City center of Melbourne, the architecture is incredible.
I think it's time for another visit, don't you?
I hoped you enjoyed travelling down memory lane with me, thank you for giving me the opportunity to share my memories with you.
