IMPREXXION: MELBOURNE

by xuessium - last update: Jun 13, 2008

..."I enjoyed Melbourne. Alway have. A city fused with rich unfazed cosmopolitan vibe, and yet comfortable and sure of itself and its root. Proud of its sport heritage - it was the first city in Australia to host a summer Olympic in 1956 and is still guardian to the annual Australian Open, one of the 4 Grand Slams of Tennis-dom. Trams still patrol the main streets, refusing to yield ground to modern buses. Watch as each tram stops and starts; the energy of the city captured in each electric burst. The city sparks!"...

For general tips on Australia, please access the Mother page: AUSTRALIA.

Do also check out my IMPREXXION: PORT CAMPBELL subpages for my experiences with the Great Ocean Road.

Drop me a comment if you think that this page has been useful. Thanks!

NOTE: This is likely to be my next most heavy-going VT page. Guess living here tends to make you want to list everything down. I will try my best to condense the page to prevent a heavy-going burgeoning page. If you feel overwhelmed, just focus on the areas you are looking for. Cheers!

Pros:"Lovely city with a little bit of everything for everyone"
Cons:"The petty crimes if I should raise one"
In A Nutshell:"Now, my home away from home...."

 Fantastic page. Very informative tips. If i ever make it down to Melbourne I'll certainly be checking back. The Great Ocean Road looks spectacular. That would be first on my list.
