Safe and sound

Arrived Monday in Melbourne after 34 hours of travelling. Flights were pretty non-descript (a bit bumpy at times), LAX was a nightmare, total chaos plus i had no US dollars to spend on a drink, i was dehydrated and tired, needless to say i slept through the take off from LAX to Melbourne.

Flying into Melbourne i passed over Sydney at sunrise and saw the Operahouse and harbour bridge from a great vantage point.

Weather in Melbourne is overcast at the moment, but its such a great contrasting city that the weather doesn't really detract from the experience.

I have been welcomed at the Institute of Forensic medicine and was asked to do an autopsy on my second day there!

Backpackers is pretty basic, but it clean and friendly (and cheap).

I'm off to visit a rock bar i have just read about, will write more and post some pics when i get access to a PC at VIFM.
