Arrival in Melbourne

Arrived in Melbourne at 6pm - temperature 35 degrees!! A shock to the system. The car hire place did not have a map of the city so we spent a very frustrating 1 ½ hours finding our hotel! However it was worth getting here .Alan had booked this hotel so I had no idea what it would be like - it is probably the most luxurious one we have ever stayed in. Called Sofitel and right in the middle of Melbourne. We are on the 42nd floor and the view is absolutely amazing. There are gadgets for everything. After a camper for 3 weeks this is just what we needed. - and the bonus is we are back again on Monday!
