Metcards II

Back in November, I posted about Metcards (you’ll probably want to read that for background knowledge), which are tickets for public transport in Melbourne. This is part two of that post. ‘Tis a bit delayed, because I somehow deleted all my scans and was not very motivated to continue. Also, WordPress is a total pain when it comes to this. But anyway, let the picspam begin!

Main Yarra Trail

Yesss, my resolution to blog every five to six days hasn’t been broken yet.

I’ve been planning, for a while now, to post photos of areas around one of Melbourne’s main bike paths, which I recently found myself walking on. This is that entry.

Finding somewhere pretty to take photos really increases the level of enjoyability of exercise. Following the same path each time gets dull and boring, and isn’t motivating. Exploring the city, and finding new, interesting places, is.

These photos were taken along the Main Yarra Trail. Note that there are no actual photos of the Yarra River here. I did take some, but any fellow Melburnian will be able to confirm that it is not a pretty sight (it is heavily polluted).
