Any suggestions please....on what can I do in Melbourne this Thursday????

                                     
The school is sending another teacher and me over to Melbourne for a conference this week..lucky me.!!!!!! 😊😊

By travelling over late on Wednesday we will have Thursday free to shop/explore the city etc..(well as much as we can do in one day)...before the conference on Friday and Saturday and then flying back to NZ early on Sunday...so not a lot of time to spend there 😓😢.

So what to do???? Any suggestions on shops to go to or things to see..good places to eat even...anything would be appreciated, so we can make the most of the day as I really don't know Melbourne at all.

We are both interested in patchwork and embroidery so are there any shops close to the city or easy to access on public transport.

We are staying out Camberwell way as it is closer to the school that the conference is being held at and won't take too long on the tram to get to there on Friday and Saturday.

Grateful thanks for any suggestions...

Lyn

  4. I'm sure there will be some Melbourne bloggers that can advice you as I only visited Melbourne for the first time last year BUT if you go into the city and have the chance do visit HOPETOUN CAFE.... they have the most amazing Cakes 😋

  5. This will be of no use to you Lyn, sorry... but if I had any time in Melbourne, I'd want to spend it with my cousin... she's the closest thing I have to a sister.
    I hope you enjoy your day & the time in Melb - take your warm clothes!!
