It gives me a new and a fresh perspective, which is different from what others write or the way they express a similar thought or idea.<br /><br />So obviously, my choice or my option while in Melbourne will be to do something that not many generally go for. Shopping and market hopping is surely not going to be high on my priority list. But when it comes to art... YES.<br /><br />But HOW is more important... I am going to hire a Segway and go zipping along the Yarra riverside and see the public art on display there. Interesting, isn't it? The Segway will not take me further in lesser time, but will also make sure that it tires me a lot less. Obviously, i am going to stop and click pictures... maybe even relax by the side of some and do a fast sketch on my iPad.<br /><br />But art only by riding a Segway? No way.<br />I am going to go tram-hopping and try and discover street art and street public art and the same time ride different types of trams through this wonderful city.<br /><br />What else? Well, I just might go up to the Skydeck and watch and click the way the contemporary and heritage architecture co-exists in Melbourne.<br /><br />Or maybe take an early morning balloon ride and see how God spreads his colours over Melbourne to make it such a lovely place for art.<br /><br />Arvind Passey<br />www.passey.infoArvind Passeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05341799018508448940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7714981690614285546.post-44935166674467570972015-01-05T10:30:00.536+00:002015-01-05T10:30:00.536+00:00Hey ,Superb post ,so all set to pack bags to have ...Hey ,Superb post ,so all set to pack bags to have a thrill at Melbourne…Now being high on my wish list:)U’ve very well covered "the best of Melbourne" & for the entry in contest ,there cannot ever be a single place for me..It has to be a bouquet of places to feel calm down my zest to explore it..So naming ,first comes the Great Ocean road not just to linger or have a decent walk but to amaze myself with Jetskiing ,Scuba diving & to try swim with Dolphins & seal!

Dear! Your explanation about Melbourne is wonderful and picturesque description. I am a person who always attracted to nature first of any place so I would love to see the Melbourne Nature & Wildlife. The 12 Apostles rock formations is world famous rocks which changes its color in sunrise and sun set. And then I will see the Phillip Island Nature Park where I want to see the animals which I hardly see in India. I never saw Penguins, Koala and other animals.<br />Driving on a smooth road with natural beauty around you, it always gives you a feeling of heaven on Earth. I would love to drive on Great Ocean Road which is also famous in world to give you a scenic experience and the pleasure of that driving is amazing. <br /><br />Bhawna <br />Bhawnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12452325176047402413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7714981690614285546.post-14833923904080602352015-01-04T10:04:28.952+00:002015-01-04T10:04:28.952+00:00Great post! After reading your post & watching...Great post! After reading your post & watching all the videos, I would definitely want to visit all those amazing places when I get to visit Melbourne :) But of all, my top pick would be a visit to Yarra valley for a beautiful sunrise balloon flight. After seeing the video, I can't stop myself from dreaming a romantic magical flight above the scenic vineyards and watching the sunrise from up above! Throw in my favorite wine, I will doubly enjoy the ride sipping my glass and taking sensational selfies all the way :) Now I can't think of a better way of spending a vacation!!<br /><br />Next of course, cruising through the great ocean road in a open-top car to enjoy the coastal scenery and the iconic 12 apostles for the nature's amazing work at play. Then a ride around the city in the vintage trams to enjoy its urban splendor and the legendary puffing billy to enjoy its natural splendor. Finally a day at the hot springs to unwind and totally rejuvenate myself :)Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09863260784321567125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7714981690614285546.post-35788683495911493332015-01-04T03:35:35.428+00:002015-01-04T03:35:35.428+00:00Being a nature lover, Australian flora and fauna a...Being a nature lover, Australian flora and fauna appeals to my inner senses. If I ever have a plan, I would like to explore the flora and fauna, quite unique to Australia. Maybe, cuddle a koala bear as well, in one of their national parks.<br />- Ranjith (http://www.alightheartedtalk.com)Ranjithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16782648459576429787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7714981690614285546.post-43845328419799563832015-01-03T20:00:27.308+00:002015-01-03T20:00:27.308+00:00thanks dear....have a great year ahead too...wish ...thanks dear....have a great year ahead too...wish you n ur family :-)NandiniDekahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03528566878229182574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7714981690614285546.post-34165205825991130732015-01-03T19:56:12.535+00:002015-01-03T19:56:12.535+00:00:-):-)NandiniDekahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03528566878229182574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7714981690614285546.post-11830829048615287082015-01-03T19:55:08.447+00:002015-01-03T19:55:08.447+00:00thanks , same to you :-)thanks , same to you :-)NandiniDekahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03528566878229182574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7714981690614285546.post-39050565730893655332015-01-03T19:53:54.189+00:002015-01-03T19:53:54.189+00:00thanks @ck :-)thanks @ck :-)NandiniDekahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03528566878229182574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7714981690614285546.post-42410308724831149712015-01-03T19:52:13.575+00:002015-01-03T19:52:13.575+00:00thank you and happy new year to you as well!thank you and happy new year to you as well!NandiniDekahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03528566878229182574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7714981690614285546.post-83508916458808216362015-01-03T18:17:07.462+00:002015-01-03T18:17:07.462+00:00Yes!

I too still remember the scenes from the movie where Priety Zinta sips Coffee while standing at the egde of the deck! But I didn't know back then that it was Melbourne, now I do :)<br /><br />it was nice taking a walk through your dreamy world as you dreamt of winning the Contest.. all the best! May your dreams come true!<br /><br />now getting to what I choose from the list you have compiled.<br /><br />Anti-Gravity Hill!!<br />Are you kidding?! I imagined everything you wrote about the gravity defying things to do up here. I still can't fully believe it! So yes, I want to experience this myself. "Seeing is believing" they say.<br /><br /><br />Eureka SkyDeck 88 is my next pic. I would want to stand at the highest point in Mebourne amidst modern developed architectures and feel like the king. When I read about this, I imagine myself in a suit like a business tycoon looking out from Eureka SkyDeck. Such a rush it gives!<br /><br />Ok enough with Heights :)<br />next on my list is The Great Ocean Road. <br />Being a poet, a location like this would be nirvana for me. What a ride it would be along the coast! I would visit the place with my diary and I am sure that the serenity and beauty of this place would awaken the poet in me. Not just the ride, the Apostles at the end of the road will surely add to the experience.<br /><br />thank you for this opportunity to participate.<br /><br />happy new year.<br /><br />regards,<br />anirudhs2009@gmail.comShetty Anirudhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15897716870331885774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7714981690614285546.post-25364843957299202742015-01-03T15:16:50.029+00:002015-01-03T15:16:50.029+00:00Interesting Post

After reading your post & watching all the videos, I'd most like to visit the Dandenong Ranges for it's scenic beauty, breathtaking view and cool breeze blowing through my hair. :P I'd give anything away for driving through the winding roads which are present throughout the ranges. I'd love to stay at one of the bed and breakfast cottages and go on frequent excursions in the forests with my camera which provides excellent views. And not to forget the famous ride in the Puffing Billy, a day reserved especially for that. To add to that, there are also several picnic spots for me and my friends to spend a fun-filled day and the ranges are a perfect spot for hiking and cycling. <br /><br />Wish you and your blog a happy new year! :Dcruxrebelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05728220074975418678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7714981690614285546.post-6596306197079306822014-12-31T08:09:31.818+00:002014-12-31T08:09:31.818+00:00good one !good one !Mahesh Divyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07738977257094460317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7714981690614285546.post-47053950839009165662014-12-31T07:42:49.180+00:002014-12-31T07:42:49.180+00:00Quite beautifully composed post, discussing the pl...Quite beautifully composed post, discussing the places to visit in good amount of detail.<br />Well, for me, it'll be the 4 hour drive through the Great Ocean Road to the limestone caves.<br />And best of luck for the contest.CyberKIDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18191819885863430458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7714981690614285546.post-44946914639503491852014-12-31T07:12:51.545+00:002014-12-31T07:12:51.545+00:00Exciting post on Melbourne Nandhini.
