Melbourne – Going down to Peninsula

The beginning of a new year where we landed safely in Melbourne, Australia.  The captain of the flight usher us to the new year while we were on the flight -  yes we did our countdown in the plane.

Weather is cold, eventhough is summer.  We were told just 3 days before our arrival… it was actually very hot.  They predicted the weather to be cooling the next few days before the temperature rises again.

Today is beach day.  We make our journey to various beaches along this stretch called “Mornington Peninsula”.  There’s a map right below of this post for your reference.

The first was this suburb called Edithvale.  The next stop was Long Island, Frankston… where there were more beach activities.  Seagulls are common on beaches and you can see them roam freely around.

The next place visited is Sorrento – a small beautiful place with the conveniences of restaurants, cafes and retail outlets laid on a stretch.  Here, you can see a lot of youngsters hanging out, skating and roller blading.  Next destination is Portsea (located at the edge of the peninsula).  Here, we stopped at this place called London Bridge.  It is actually a big rock, sculptured naturally by Mother Nature.  It is beautiful and from a distance, it almost looked like a dragon head.  The place is all natural with untouched seaweeds and beautiful rocks.
