C is for Christmas is Coming: a morning in Melbourne

Counting down, 21 December in Melbourne
The Melbourne city centre was alive this morning, packed, buskers, families, office workers, tourists and we loved being part of it. The weather was mild and such a pleasure not to be too hot.

The lights, decorations and activities made me realise that Christmas is around the corner, that New Zealand is calling. 

We ambled along the Yarra River, enjoyed the Lego display at Fed Square, particularly the Lego Koala hanging on for dear life at the top of the Xmas Tree, the window shopping was a treat, the Arcades dressed beautifully, we found pies and dumplings along the way, we road the 35 Tram, took the photo Lee suggested under the Flinders Street Station...

So nice to be part of it all...

We are now finished with the first part of our 3 months trip and are transitioning to New Zealand for a few months.
Wonderful Christmas build-up in Melbourne

Standing under the Flinders Station clock, just as Lee said I should.
