My last exam was on the 19th of June (Tuesday). A lot has happened since then, and instead of boring you with a bunch of descriptions, I think I'll just post pictures!
Wednesday 20 June
Resting at home in the morning, and cube club in the afternoon! Sorry, no pictures from that day.
Thursday 21 June
A while back at the
MUOSS Student Experience Fair, I won a free day tour of the Mornington Peninsula! But I kept putting it off. Well, I couldn't put it off for too much longer after exams, so I finally went on the tour! The weather was not so good that day, but it was still lots of fun.
 |
| From Arthur's Point, you're supposed to be able to see the entire peninsula! But as I learned, this is only possible on a sunny day. |
 |
| Beach boxes! |
 |
| Wine tasting! (What a great view from the winery!) I started feeling a little dizzy after tasting a few wines. I was worried that I was becoming drunk! |
 |
| Trying out some chocolate at a chocolate factory! |
Friday 22 June
 |
| Checked out the Visitor Information Centre at Federation Square, and found some souvenir Rubik's cubes! I was looking around for tourist information and for things to do around Melbourne. |
 |
| There was a nice rainbow in sight from Federation Square! |
Saturday 23 June
 |
| On the way to the Docklands, I had a nice view of a double rainbow! |
 |
| Interesting shopping centre! |
 |
| At the end of the centre, Costco! Since I didn't have a membership, I couldn't get in. I was thinking of the "tag-along method" of getting in, but decided that wasn't a good idea. |
 |
| There's a nice view of the city from the Docklands |
Sunday 24 June
 |
| I spent my day at St Kilda! |
 |
| Every Sunday, St Kilda has an arts and crafts market! |
 |
| The conservatory at the St Kilda Botanical Gardens! |
 |
| This store gives you a good idea of how crazy Acland St can be! |
 |
| Yum, the cakes and pastries in all the bakeries on Acland St look so good! |
 |
| St Kilda community garden! |
 |
| Went out to the pier at dusk to look for penguins! I saw some hiding in the rocks, but they were impossible to photograph! |
Monday 25 June
 |
| Stopped by Saint Patrick's Cathedral on the way to the city |
 |
| I passed by the Parliament House, and decided to go up the steps. When I did, I realized they were giving free tours of the building! |
 |
| To get in the building, I had to go through an airport-like security screening. Then I had to wear a sticker. (This changed my jacket from "GAP" into "TAP"!) |
 |
| Pretending to be the speaker of the Legislative Assembly! |
 |
| The Legislative Council room is also elaborated decorated! |
 |
| Lunch with Emily. Yum, curry! |
Tuesday 26 June
 |
| Flinder St Station |
 |
| Federation Square. The triangular pattern apparently has a tiling pattern that is related to the mathematician John Conway! |
 |
| There was an exhibit on film and other media at the ACMI! |
 |
| Playable Mario games! |
 |
| Visited the Ian Potter Gallery, which is full of art! |
