Melbourne International Flower Show April 2005

Taken at Melbourne International Flower Show 7th April 2005


I was so, so lucky to be able to go to this annual flower show. It was a 5 day event and it so happened that we were at the right place at the right time. There were throngs of people swarming the Royal Exhibition Building and Carlton Gardens. City circle trams were packed with people. But the atmosphere is great and relaxing. The exhibition garden is huge so the huge crowds wasn't so bad at all.











Melbourne Albert Park

This quiet, peaceful park is the Grand Prix of Australia Circuit Track. Can you believe it?!



The annual Australian Formula One Grand Prix covers a 5260 m circuit around the lake.
