So anyway, we continued walking down the Yarra River (or up, whatever floats your boat) and crossed a nice little bridge thing to go to grab a drink at Boost Juice. The riverside is a pretty good place to take pictures and I think later I took some photos at night with the lights and what not - which looks more professional than the daytime pics.

On the way back we stopped by a street-side "stall" sort of thing, which was basically 2 people selling framed pictures that they had drawn. Joanne is a sucker for this kind of stuff so she bought one silly girl. We also passed by a few main city areas such as the QV Building and walked back pass Melbourne Central to grab some nutella donuts mmhmm (they were actually pretty average, nutella in a donut- very imaginative). Oh and we picked up a small acoustic amp for Joanne from Cranbourne Music as well. The rest of the afternoon/early evening was spent watching Drew catch up his episodes of Heroes - to which he was addicted for the first few days of holiday. And of course Jeremy came to visit after work and afterwards Joanne followed him back to his place for family dinner. Or something similar to that.

My fellow patacha and I decided it was time to hit the casino - for food purposes. We heard a rumour that Crown had cheap food in order to attract people in the hope that after saving money on feeding their bellies they would blow hundreds more on the slot machines and other silly gambling games. Not that I have anything against silly gambling games. The amount of people playing the crappy crappy slot machines was incredible, although that recognisable ring of the coins dropping down the machine's chute occured fairly frequently. We ate at a place called George's - and I would highly recommend it to anyone. The pasta and pizza is only $9.90 and the $3.90 garden salad was one of the best salads I enjoyed during my entire Melbourne experience. After 5 photos or so I was kindly informed that cameras were not allowed on the gaming floor. Oops. Oh and on the way home we passed a fast food outlet called Lord of the Fries. I thought that was pretty interesting/corny.
