June 28, 2014- Melbourne Museum
Saturdays are officially mine and Jesse's favorite day! FREEDOM! Well, i've been experiencing freedom due to the awesomeness of unemployment (will touch more on this later), but Jesse on the other hand.. Even when he travels across the city everyday, comes out when it's dark and leaves work when it's dark. I don't wanna be a party pooper either but I spend most of my weekdays at home (probably 90% of the time) because of two main reasons: 1.) online job hunting 2.) expensive transit passes. The other 10% of the weekdays i've been walking around the suburb manually handing out resumes OR buying groceries. LOL. This is life, guys! Sometimes we're busy and sometimes we find ourselves stuck.
Anyways, there's plenty to do during the weekend! This was part of our anniversary celebration :) I wanted to see Melbourne Museum this time. I'm really loving the museum culture here!! There's just so many interesting things to see. Last time we went to the National Gallery of Victoria and saw the most amazing collection of artworks (sculptures, paintings, relics, etc.). I'm hooked!

"the first non-Aboriginal cultural site in Australia to win World Heritage listing."
Look to your right, and you'll find trams leading back to the city
This was literally right beside our destination
The entrance of the museum reminded me of the TFDL at the UofC!
Ermagerd... a DERNERSERRR!
Honestly though, I didn't know dinasaurs were real until I was 20 something.
