Typical Melbourne

May 2, 2008 | Filed under Australia

I love Melbourne. I really do, I think it’s a city that has everything going for it. A large urban area, excellent dining, lots of arts and cultural activities, a multitude of sporting events, lush greenery and beautiful parklands, waterfront features, short distance from some great scenic drives, quiet suburbs for families…there’s not much to fault with the basic features of Melbourne (transportation aside, but that can be dealt with another day!).

If there’s one thing I don’t like about Melbourne however, it would be characterised in a three-hour period in Melbourne today (one which is actually quite typical of the weather we experience regularly):

Not for nothing are we nicknamed the city of “four seasons in one day”. It certainly makes it hard to decide in the morning what to wear that would suit all possible weather changes!

  1. It seems that the weather is alike in a lot of parts in the world these days. We had the same kind of weather yesterday.

  2. I don’t think you need PM when the time is written 13:30 :P

    Man, I wish it would just be autumn all the time, everywhere so we… Or at least I, could just wear jeans and a tshirt and then a jacket if it gets cold. I don’t know what you would wear :P
