Melbourne

My first week in Australia was spent in Melbourne. The jetlag wasn't horrible but I went to bed by 8 o'clock every night. Would wake up at midnight and work out at the hotel gym, then go back to bed and sleep the rest of the night. Very unusual for me, I usually sleep solid all the way through the night at home. The Architecture was incredible. New and old blurred together throughout the city. The first weekend there was ANZAC day and the people of Melbourne party very hard. People could be heard in the street drinking and yelling all night. I got up a 4am sunday and walked down to a convience store to get a newspaper and had to dodge the multiple vomit piles on the street. Seriously, it was everywhere.
