Our short stay in Melbourne is over

Melbourne time went by very fast but we still did a lot.  As we were leaving we saw a couple in full wedding regalia. Our cab driver was from Somalia and we had a most interesting discussion with him on the way to the airport. We passed a large modern art project. It was situated right next to the housing projects. Our driver said that was on purpose so people wouldn't look over in the direction of the projects.  At the airport there were some very elaborate mosaics on the floor and some very strange items in the stores. We had a fine time in the lounge. I got caught up on the blog. Our flight over parts of Australia was very interesting. We think we passed over some salt flats. The water patterns seemed very strange with parts of what seemed like lakes apparently dried up.  The crew manager on the plane was quite complementary.  He remarked on how we matched and called us a well put together couple.

Jaywalking!


And fast at that


Art over here


Don't look over there 



I managed to get a picture without any people walking over this art


Very cool and colorful 


Eat or be eaten
