G'day Mates.........

Published on July 30, 2004 By LifeIs42 In Travel

This is the first post coming from Melbourne, Australia...

In continuation to my last post, I took a flight from Singapore to Sydney
had some in-air turbulence, our aircraft shook a lot but then it was all smooth
and normal....
i watched HellBoy in flight, but more than movies or anything else i was
interested in the flight information available on my in-flight entertainment
system...
most of the time we were above sea....
due to lack of sleep the previous night, i took a nap and in the
evening i was at sydney.....

Aussies are very cautious about the stuff coming in to their country....
my luggage was thoroughly checked and what they found annoying were my shoes and
sandals...
at the bottom of my footwear was some mud and soil which they felt needs to be cleaned
and they took my footwear and gave me back clean and shining footwear atleast at the bottom....

sydney to melbourne flight got delayed as the crew was supposed to come from some other aircraft..
so we started around 40 mins late....

and finally...after 2 hops i was at Melbourne....
Melbourne is cold....
but its a very nice place...lot of things to see....
have some plans for this weekend....

wanna know what all victoria has in store for you....

Stop using your nationality for your benefit to get more comments/points.

If I were Aussie, I'd do it too.

Yo man - I hope you are having fun!!! Try and check out a game of AFL football if you can!!!

If you have any questions about Melbourne at all - email me at mr_frenchy1@hotmail.com - I live here!!!

also, be sure to tell all you American friends how multicultural our city is... for some reason, they have the impression it is not...
