Oh, my sore feet! Day eighteen.

We slept in this morning because we were so tired from the weekend of dancing. When we got up it was about 9 o clock. We went in to the city to have a look around at all the amazing things. We  took a tram in to the city and it was really crowded.

 We stopped at the library where there were really big chess sets but they weren't available. We went into the library where it was very quiet. There were lots of displays of old things from Victoria's history including Ned Kelly's armor. 

We then went and had lunch. I had Chinese. We headed down the street where we saw lots of horses pulling carriages. We went on the tram again but not for long because it stopped at the next stop and went back again to where we got on! We decided to walk instead. 

We walked through Chinatown where there were a lot of Chinese shops. We came across the Victorian Parliament House which was huge and pretty. 

Around the corner we found lots of rocks with sculptures of skeletons of animals. We walked to the Fitzroy Gardens and there we went into the conservatory where there were lots of plants and statues. From there we went and saw Captain Cooks Cottage which was small and pretty and then we headed to the Fairy Tree which had lots of fairies and animals carved into the trunk. Around the fairy tree there were free books and we took two of them. 

Near the fairy tree there was the Model Tudor Village from England which I thought the fairies lived in. The houses were really cute and they even had a church and little gardens. A little way away there was what looked like a dragon. We went to explore the dragon and realised that it was a dragon slide and there was also a headless giraffe with swings on its arms and we had a little play on them. 

We walked from the garden to the ACMI Australian Centre for the Moving Image where we saw a giraffe from the film Madagascar with its head sticking through the window. We had a look at the displays inside. They had some models of the dragon from the film How to Train a Dragon. From there we went to Flinders St Station and took a photo under the clocks.

 After that we waited for the tram in the freezing cold for ages and then we got on to the jam packed tram. The driver had to tell everyone to move back. We got back to the car and drove back to the city because Daddy wanted to have dinner in the city! We decided to eat at a Japanese cafe and it was really yummy. I had yakiniku. 

When we got home we had a shower and when we were having our shower mum and dad took down the annexe because it was really really windy. 

I hope we have a nice peaceful night in the stormy wind.
