Day 2
Cross the Dateline
The International
Date Line is an imaginary line on the earth’s surface that
approximately coincides with the 180th meridian (LONGITUDE), and
separates the calendar date. Traveling east across the line takes
the traveler back one day; traveling west, takes the traveler
forward one day.
Day 3
Arrive Melbourne
On arrival into Melbourne you will need to clear customs and immigration, then make your way through to the main arrivals hall. You will be met and transferred to your city accommodation.
At first glance, Melbourne may resemble any other modern city with its skyline full of concrete and glass. However, if you look a little closer, you'll find the real Melbourne, a city of unique charm. There are the clanging trams (street cars), swanky boutiques, friendly taxi drivers, Australian Rules Football, fickle weather and 'BYO's', by the hundred (restaurants to which you bring your own liquor or wine). Add to this, Melbourne's traditional virtues of tree lined boulevards, glorious parks, elegant buildings and imposing Victorian Banks and Churches, and of course the giant Melbourne Cricket Ground and you'll have some idea of the city.
Melbourne has become a polyglot society with a huge diversity of cultures, Italian, Greek, East European, Middle Eastern and Asian. This diversity is reflected in the food styles, the lifestyle, & even the language spoken in the street.
