A day at the cricket.

Any trip to Melbourne requires a visit to the world famous ground that is referred to as the G.

Whilst we have done the tour some years back, we were keen to repeat and hear the stories behind this notorious AFL and cricket mecca.

The tour was fantastic and gave us 90mins of history, stories and iconic memories of sporting occasions.

After a very enjoyable morning at the MCG, we headed to the Old Treasury building where the gold was stored when the 1850’s gold rush kicked off.

After a history lesson at the old treasury office, we picked up a tram and headed across the city to the Docklands with the boats and bars.

The stadium count increased by one, as we went to the next largest venue the Marvel (Disney have the naming rights…) in Melbourne with 60k visitors.

Later on the day we went for a look around St Patrick cathedral and the juxtaposition, the Imperial Hotel roof bar for sunshine drinks.

We are both becoming converts to the Melbourne scene and love what it has to offer. Looking forward to our final day in Melbourne tomorrow.
