Overseas tour Day 94 – Fitzroy & Melbourne Central

Last day in Melbourne.

After a relaxing start, we headed back to Gertrude St in Fitzroy for a coffee and a wander around the fashionable street.

After a hour wandering around Fitzroy we went on to Melbourne Museum for a tour and to visit the Titanic exhibition.

The dinosaur part to the museum was well presented and really interesting.

We also took in the Melbourne history tour, so are now well informed about all things to do with the city!

The Titanic tour was a spur of a moment thing, but proved to be really impressive with lots of artefacts and one of the best we’ve visited.

This evening was a family affair and a meet up with Andy’s distant cousin, Rupert who he last met in 1993! Thankfully neither of them had changed much….

Great to see Rupert who very kindly picked up the dinner tab. We will see him again all being well when next in Melbourne in early 2025.
