Well, the weather has only been unpleasant at night, so far
Hope you're enjoying our city so far - the food is great

Lurker, there is talk of a taxi strike alongside the tram strike, too. For tomorrow.
Limited replacement buses for the trams. Check the website.
Weather will be Springy for Friday and the weekend.

Unlikely ......... we don't do early very well lol
We had a fabulous day today. My son drove us all around the city, the botanical gardens, the tennis centre (mum's a big tennis fan), out to St Kilda beach, then a graffiti tour around Fitzroy before drinks and yummy food on Brunswick St. Then we had dinner with a cousin and his family in Fitzroy. A beaut day ๐
I'm liking Melbourne so far.

okay, the plan now is ... head into the city early(!!), before the taxi strike to, hopefully, shop until they are back running again then back out to look around the QVM.
good news about the weather being great on Friday - that's when we leave ๐
EDIT: I forgot to say - thanks everyone for all your help and info. It's great to get on the ground info from locals.
