Was in no shape to post this last night after dinner and drinks, but here's the final post:
Melbourne is so great!!! We spent our last day criss-crossing the city by tram and foot. We started out at the Queen Victoria Market with a bratwurst for breakfast :).
After strolling through the market a bit, we caught a tram to Flinder's Lane, which is a cool little street with lots of little boutiques and cafes. On the walk we found Hoosier Lane, which is a quite famous ally full of more street art:
We also stopped by an art museum to quickly shuffle through the indigenous art section, which was really cool. From there, we did a little more walking and shopping and found ourselves at Chin Chin for lunch. We had been looking forward to this meal the entire trip - asian cuisine with tons of playful dishes and a fun atmosphere.

After lunch, we hopped on a tram to South Yarra, which is another fun area to walk around and shop. Sylvie and I had fun peeking in and out of a bunch of little boutiques. After a bit, we sat down for a coffee and snack at Borsch, Vodka & Tears, which is a funky little cafe on Chapel Street:
To prepare for our last dinner, we headed back to the hotel to put our feet up over a glass of wine. I looked through some of the art books in the room and Andrew did a little work. Around 7 p.m., we caught a cab to Cumulus, a well-recommended restaurant by everyone we met. They didn't take reservations, so we grabbed a few drinks before our table was ready.

The meal was delicious, but we were so tired that we had to head back to the hotel.
We are off to the airport tomorrow morning, which is the worst news ever. We are (at least I am) so sad to bring this adventure to an end. I know Sylvie and Henry are ready to go back, but it's tough to leave a place we found that's so exciting, livable, artsy and creative.
We're getting up relatively early tomorrow morning and can't wait to talk to and see all of you!!!
