Grand ol day in Melbourne!

what a beautiful, fun day today in melbourne! first stopped off at a couple hostels to find a place to stay for the next week or so and decided (very smartly, i think) on back of chapel hostel, which is about 20 feet from the job i decided to take (the one at Hoo Haa as a waitress) so that when i get off work at 4am i dont have far to go. since public transport stops at 3am this will be very key in next stop!

next was a picnic in the botanical gardens and then exploring the yarra river district - what a surprise! it was absolutely beautiful and filled with interesting places and people. after that was watching the sunset over st kildas and finding the pint size penguins just as they were finishing marching around for the night. wonderful sunny day and cant wait for tomorrow- my first day of work!
