MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA
I come from the land down under ....
"Welcome to Melbourne, Australia!!!" |
"The Cathedral!" |
"Federation Square! What a community!" |
"Sitting on the steps, everyone loves to do this here!" |
"Our Slice of Paris" |
"LOVE THIS" |
"CHEERS MATE!" |
OH WHAT AN ADVENTURE....
Now many may be asking, are you guys exhausted?! Well, the answer is yes, but no! We are excited for all the other adventures ahead of us!!! So after a few amazing and life-long filled memories in New Zealand, we made our way to enjoy our first night our in MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA! Australia…. our dream destination! It still feels unreal …. how did we get here (well I guess after over of 24 hours of travel you would think we would get it)! How can I describe Melbourne? IT'S OUR TYPE OF CITY! From the nightlife to the events, and most importantly the beaches! There are hundreds of beaches!!!
Our favorite part of our first night out was Federation Square! The town provides chairs for the entire city to come take a seat and enjoy the giant "TV Screen!" Or the steps where you see young couples sharing ice cream, toddlers running away from their parents (thinking they are so old), or the elderly smiling hand in hand…. never letting go! Life here is so different, as they tell us "we work to live, we don't live to work… that's the problems American's have." So… here we are learning to live life to be happy! Because at the end of the day (my mom's favorite line LOL) we only have one chance to live life, right? So why not live it until we laugh so hard tears fall down our faces?! That's what we plan on doing! So, all of you who read this blog… try to find that laugher in your life that brings a smile to your face.. Let's live like the Aussie's…. lets work to live, not live to work!
Well, I hope you have been enjoying the photos as much as we have been enjoying taking them! We will continue blogging everyday…. so stay tuned!
Miss you all,
Nicole

Delete"work to live, not live to work". I couldn't agree more. Enjoy every little moment in life, because that's what life really is, a lot of little moments. I am so happy you're having this wonderful experience. I'm glad you're in Melbourne already and that you like what you've seen so far. It looks a very pretty city.
ReplyDeleteLove and miss you both.
I have enjoyed tremendously this writing summarizing all of your traveling and different experiences. Since you have taken me along all of them it is easier to relate individually to each. I'm so happy for you both. Not only for everything that you are seeing, but because this is a tremendous learning experience of our wonderful life --life is actually a ride that we all should enjoy! And that's what you are doing--enjoying it! Enjoy everything, including what you would consider the little moments, because those little moments are the big moments that you will hold onto forever.
