Melbourne ultimatum

Our last day in Melbourne and we headed up to William Rickett's sanctuary near Ferntree Gully. Lunch consisted of heavenly scones at Brother Jon's served by the man himself, who turned out to be a decrepit 100-year old blind man from Bathgate in Scotland. Next we visited Sky High at Mount Dandenong and had our photograph taken in front of the Wishing Tree, in which I have strategically placed myself so the magical doughnut feature of the tree is obscured.

Then we said our last goodbyes to the cold weather here in Melbourne before our flight up to Cairns at 6am tomorrow morning. I'm actually writing this at 3.45am as we're about to head to the airport. There's potentially a taxi strike with a blockade of the airport entrance but it should be fine... Anyway, we'll leave our posts on Melbourne with a view of the bay from Sandringham beach.
