Melbourne
Some of the great things I have done in Melbourne.
This is such an experience especially if you are not afraid of heights. The Edge is where you can walk on the glass floor and the panel protrudes out and it is out of this world!
Melbourne Skydeck
This is worth doing and especially at night when you get a really great view of Melbourne at night! Something that I did with the whole family and I am glad I got to experience it.
Melbourne Star Observation Wheel
I have seen many shows at the Art Centre and it really is a magnificent building and vibe. When ever you are in Melbourne you must see if there is a show you can attend. It is worth it.
Arts Centre Melbourne
The Royal Botanical Gardens are really something else here in Melbourne - absolutely beautiful. So nice to stroll around and take it all in. Right in the heart of the CBD, opposite the National Gallery and Art Centre and it is such a vibe.
Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria - Melbourne
This is one of the best stadiums in the world and home to our AFL Football games and grand final. I also saw Eminem in concert here and it is also the home of cricket. It really is worth seeing a game or concert.
Melbourne Cricket Ground
This is an incredibly beautiful library and you really do step back in time when you come into this building. It is right in the heart of Swanston Street Melbourne and so easy to get to and visit. I love it. Sometimes they have a really big concrete ...
State Library Victoria
I don't like seeing animals in cages however the Melbourne Zoo is something that every Melbournian has experienced, whether as a school excursion or personal trip. My favourite section is the butterfly enclosure.
Melbourne Zoo
Melbourne Cup is something that everyone should experience at least once in their lifetime and it all happens here on the First Tuesday in November. This is the race that stops the nation and we are fortunate in Melbourne to have a public holiday jus...
2025 Melbourne Cup Carnival
I went to the very first Melbourne Grand Prix and it was so amazing. I love the Grand Prix. What is so cool is that we have a road circuit and going around Albert Park Lake is so beautiful. Every time I drive around the Lake I feel like I am in the G...
Australian Grand Prix
I absolutely love Luna Park in Melbourne and I have been going ever since I was a little girl. I remember going on rides with my dad because he was brave and mum was not game! I have taken my boys here many times and we love it. I still love all the ...
Luna Park Melbourne
Most Melbournians have also been to the Royal Melbourne Show either with their school or with their family. There is so much to see and do but you do need to bring your big wallet as the show bags and rides are quite expensive. It is worth seeing if ...
Melbourne Royal Show
Melbourne has quite a few ski resorts and I have stayed at Falls Creek. I have been in the Summer time and it is really beautiful too. During the winter when there is snow it is so gorgeous and worth a visit.
Falls Creek Alpine Resort
I head to Emerald regularly with my family and we love to see the Puffin Billy train. I did a video recently and added it onto my TikTok account of Puffing Billy. It really is high on the list of things to do in Melbourne.
Puffing Billy Railway
This place is heavenly but you need to get there early to beat all the crowds. There are so many great baths and different temperatures and it is such a luxurious treat.
Peninsula Hot Springs
Hepburn Spa is such luxury and when you really want that special treatment and place to relax this is it. Hepburn and Daylesford are wonderful places to visit when you are in Melbourne. It is only about 1.5 hour drive from the CBD.
Hepburn Bathhouse & Spa
Gold Goast
I love visiting Queensland.
I absolutely love this place! When I first went there my boys and I went on the Scooby Doo indoor rollercoaster so many times. Oh and the Superman Rollercoaster is out of this world. It was so good to see many Disney characters and it is so much fun.
Warner Bros. Movie World
I cannot get enough of this place and have been a few times now. The lazy river is my favourite and there are so many awesome slides and things to see and do.
Wet 'N' Wild Waterworld
This place is unbelievable and certainly for young and young at heart! So many great rides and I love seeing the Dolphin show! It is such a treat.
Sea World
Sydney
Sydney is such a cool place to visit.
One of the great wonders of the world - the Sydney Opera House. I always go and check it out when I visit Sydney. It is a must. Even just to walk around it and grab a coffee, drink or bite along the strip there is a fantastic thing to do.
Sydney Opera House
The Darling Harbour is so beautiful and absolutely everyone needs to visit it when they go to Sydney. There are so many beautiful restaurants and things to see and do on the harbour. It's a national gem.
Darling Harbour
This is such a vibe and experience. When you have the Opera House, Harbour Bridge and New Year in one how can you top that! This is something that the world stops to check out.
