Touristing in Melbourne


We have left the sand sea and surf behind but not the heat as we head back to the city. Melbourne is currently experiencing a heat wave and the temperatures are in the 40s. I have never experienced heat like it. It is unbearably hot but really dry. When you step outside it is like stepping into tumble dryer, or like someone holding a hairdryer in your face. It is not pleasant at all but this is my first time in Melbourne and I am not going to let a little hold me back from sightseeing.
