Melbourne, Australia

Well we have had an amazing first week in Melbourne. Saturday we got tickets to a AFL game, Kangaroos vs Magpies. We were at the MCG which is there main stadium, it is there largest holding 100,000 people. There was only 52,000 for the game we went to but much more then the saddledome. We had really good seats like 10 rows from the front. Sunday we spent the day at the Victoria Park Markets which consist of over 1000 stalls. Quite overwhelming you dont even know where to start. We also went to a exhibition at the Melbourne center for moving images and saw the history of video games exhibit. It was really big, we wandered around for 2 hrs and Glenn was in heaven seeing all the old systems he used to play with as a kid. Monday and Tuesday we went on a Great Ocean road tour. We went with a small company so there was only 14 of us and it was lots of fun. We stayed in a hostel for the night and got to see all of the Great Ocean Road. Glenn and i got to go on our very first Helicopter ride over the 12 Apostles. It was so cool, we had alot of fun! So we have been pretty busy the weather has been really nice, quite cool at night since they are getting into winter but about 25 during the day. We hope everyone is really good!
Love you tons Jen and Glenn
