All wrapped up in Melbourne!

WE MADE IT TO MELBOURNE!!!! And having the time of our lives I must add :)

There is something about the dusty, greyness in Melbourne that makes you really appreciate the clean streets and crisp blue skies of Perth but gawd damn. There are so many facets to this city that you just want to keep running until you trip over a circus, or fall in to magic wardrobe or slip on fairy dust!

I've caught up with some old friends already who have each showed us some awesome stuff (including the world's best jam donuts from the Footscray station. This little old couple sit in this super, dodgy van, there is never a moment when someone isn't at this van, people come from other suburbs JUST for these donuts and they don't make any other kind of donut, just jam)

We also had the best pizza I've ever tasted at Le Niche Cafe where we saw John Clarke and Dash giggled like a school girl.

I also found some REALLY cheap jewelery displays!!!! Which will come in handy because I've been accepted in to the Unwrapped Market for Artists! YAYAYAYAYAY!!!

My brother is a big time artist in Melbourne and was invited to an exhibition opening last night but we were too tired to go with him in the end. The exhibition was for Graeme Base (of Animalia fame)'s wife. So learning our lesson, were going to try take it easy today so that we still have energy for a party tonight :P
