Trams part duex

Sorry about that not finishing my blog yesterday. On Sunday since we had had too much to drink neither Corrin, Dan or I were feeling up to doing too much. So we got lunch at a fish shop. Your typical greasy hung over deep fried fish and chips. And then in the evening we made pizza (with pumpkin on it) and watched some truly Aussie movies. They told me these were must see movies to understand the Australian culture. So that night we watched The Castle. It was very good and I laughed a lot. If you can find it anywhere in a video store pick it up and see if you can understand them. lol. So yesterday I went with Corrin in the morning to the salon that she owns. I had breakfast in a little cafe near there. Then I took the train into the city centre and went to federation square. I met up with Ailsa and we went to the Melbourne aquarium. There was so big sharks and tons of very cool fish. I will send out some pictures soon. Then Aisla wanted to see the beach so we jumped on a tram. The very cool thing about public transportation in Melbourne is you can buy one pass and it works on buses trains and trams. So we figured out with tram to get on, which can be so confusing with 8 million people around. Once we got on the right one we rode it to the end. Ailsa got off and wondered over to the beach while I stayed on and it took me all the way to the other end of the city where I got off. I was on the tram about an hour and half in total. This is a good way to see the city. There is a free tram that goes around the city centre all day. I may go down and catch that today. Then to end the day off we watched the second movie. It is called Kenny. I think he may even have a TV show on here now. It was also very funny, so check it out if you find it. Well I am going to go grab some lunch and hopefully have an adventurous day.
Until next time,
Cindy

I do remeber the tram now. Sounds like you are starting to get the hang of things in Melbourne. I am so jealous.
Happy Birthday...I will have cake in your honour.
