Flying back from Melbourne

Just had the best couple of days with our son Ben and his flat mate, Laura in Ascot Vale. We took the Perth sun with us to take the chill out of each day. We heard that Perth had Melbourne rain while we were away. Rather than give you all the details, the highlights were being looked after like king and queen by the staff and even seated in business class for some of the trip.
We went up the tallest building in Melbourne, The Eureka. Amazing 360 degree views 88 floors up.
Ate delicious food in a variety of interesting places, and stayed in a luxury hotel looking over Flemington Park racecourse, which is just down the road from Ben's apartment.
I'll add more news later as we are about to take off in a brand new air bus A330-200. I'm looking forward to watching a movie on the screen in the back of the seat. Too many choices!
I forgot to mention that Ben was working on our flight over to Melbourne from Perth, so it was great for us to see in action for the first time in his 5 years working as flight attendant. Greg took most of the photos on our trip which I haven't downloaded yet.
