polly Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 We travel this road to get to the Victoria Market. All these were taken on or from Queen streetThis is one of the few really tall buildingsI love the old style of some of the office blocksModern Office BlockTrees are everywhereAll the streets are marked wellLearning Centre BillboardArtwork on a building (honestly, this freaks us out a little. We are not modern art afficionados )Victoria UniversityJust off Queen street: a tram shelter. The old-fashioned tram is a tourist tram. You can take it for free around the city. They announce and describe what you are seeing around you. Aimed at tourists The clock tower is part of Flinders Street Station (train station)Lord of the FriesFlinders street station viewed from Queen street Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polly Posted November 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 (edited) Thanks Hard to take pics out the car window, but hubby doesn't want to stop every two meters any more Can't say as I blame him, but I need to tie my camera to my wrist at soem stage. All this leaning out the window to take pics is a bit risky Oh, and you can now see where the best suit value in town is Edited November 16, 2008 by polly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
