Melbourne Day Out

2008.04.19

[Matt and I, at the train station getting ready to geek out for the day. ;) ]

[We meet up with some of Matt's friends from Hobart in Federation Square, for a gaming exhibition]

[On the way, we discover a community festival devoted to fostering relations between Australia and Oman, with our Lord Mayor speaking. The vibrant colours of the women's fashion around is breath-taking. Sadly, I only manage a few stealthy photographs before heading to lunch - I was trailing behind Matt's friends... who had food on their mind... as it was! :P]

[Gorgeous henna art being done at the festival - enlarge this one for extra detail]

[A giant metallic bee - part of a cluster - hangs high above the footpath on a building in Southbank]

[What a way to end the day!]

Some of Matt's friends were up from Hobart for the weekend (see pervious entry for more information), so on Saturday we ventured into the City for Game On, a history of gaming exhibition. Very, very good - we spent hours there playing old games and reminiscing about all things geeky (in fact, to unleash the inner geek feels more "me" than the teaching persona I have over me these days - after all, these are my roots).

The day ends with a sunset over the Yarra, tiring but satisfying. :)

I love the last image in particular, with its attractive composition of boat, bridge, and city.
