"All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better."
Ralph Waldo Emerson

The last few days have been fantastic. I’ve been to the St Kilda Beach, Melbourne Zoo, Royal Botanical Gardens, and out on the town aussie style. Good times, good times.

The zoo was fun, uber crowded though. I met some people from Chicago there. They aren't quite as friendly as Texans or Aussies.

Next was my first official night out in Melbourne...

Night out on the town was fun. I went out with one of my roommates and her friends. Lesson learned: snake bite = dangerous...and I'm not talking about this kind of snake...

They have this awful cider drink called the snake bite. Word to the wise: Stay Away! Despite my reptilian encounter, the night was a blast. They showed me how to play Aussie pool, and I showed some random guy how to TX two step. hooray!

The Royal Botanical Garden was really a treat. I went on a beautiful sunny day and LOVED it. I hope to return soon with a picnic basket and book.

Lovin' this city!!
