Changing from rural New Zealand back to the busyness of a big city has meant little time for blogging again!
Walking around Melbourne, it's impossible to miss all the sports grounds around. Last weekend was also one of the biggest sporting weekends here...
Formula 1 was in town...
 |
| Lewis was running along the river |
 |
| Jenson was zipping round the track |
 |
| Pete was loving seeing two Lotus teams on the grid |
 |
| Archie didn't really appreciate just how impressively loud F1 cars are |
But out here, F1 is a sideshow compared to the opening weekend of AFL - Aussie Rules
 |
| Pete didn't take this photo, but loved how similar it is to Ultimate... with more fighting :o) |
We saw the Melbourne Demons vs the Sydney Swans - it was a draw, which is really rare.. but what really impressed was the stadium - the MCG (Melbourne Cricket Ground)
After
England retained the Ashes here in December, it seems that the Aussies have abandoned cricket and are playing a game they can't loose to the Poms at instead...
