Melbourne Australia - Hanging out along the river

I know my way around Melbourne and never have any trouble getting where I need to be but I have never really understood the orientation of the city.  This trip I finally understood where north is when you are in the center city.  It helped put so many other things in perspective.  

Stayed at a great spot right along the river and most everything I needed to do I could walk along the river to the meeting.  

Lots of great biking seems to have evolved over the past few years - more bikes and more paths.  It is great.  Melbourne is much less hilly than Sydney so much easier to navigate.  

Such a great mix of old and new.

Mostly lovely weather but we did have a storm come through and the winds that preceded it were amazing - wow!
