We finally made it!! Melbourne is such a nice, cute city with a lot of cafés and coffee shops in the ally ways. There is so much to see just from walking around the city! We were so excited to visit Melbourne, not only to see another Australian city but we also had friends that live there. Tom was one of my roommates in college. He lived with me and two other girls (poor guy). Tom was raised in Melbourne and came to EKU to play tennis. After graduation I wasn't sure if we would see him again, of course all of us girls said we would come to visit him and see Australia, but who knew it would actually happen!! Jason's friend, Joe, from high school also lives in Melbourne. Him and his wife relocated to Australia for work and unlike us, have been lucky enough to end up in a big city! It was so nice to catch up with old friends from the US on the other side of world!! The weekend that we were there was also the Grand Final for Australian Football League. The city was packed and had such a fun atmosphere... reminded of us of what it would be like for the Superbowl. We watched the parade and walked over to the see the stadium as well. There was definitely a lot of purple and yellow... just not on the same shirts or else we would have thought that we were in Minnesota Viking Territory!
