I spent my last day in Melbourne at St. Kilda’s beach. I took the number 96 tram from the City centre (Queen Street) to the beach. I passed the Melbourne Museum and a lot of other sights. Museums are not really my thing but this is grand and quite stylish from the outside.

After almost half an hour, I got to the end of the line but there was not a beach in sight. I do not know how the woman I asked kept a straight face but keep it she did, while letting me know that I had travelled to the wrong end of the tram line. An hour long tram trip later, I finally got to St. Kilda’s, where it was surprisingly windy and chilly – bear in mind that the mercury hit 40C last Thursday during the tennis. I walked up and down the beach / boardwalk.

The water at St. Kilda’s was quite calm and there were people paddle boarding and wave boarding. The wave boarders all wore wetsuits.

This could have been summer in Cornwall!
