Day 120 - Mon 6th July: Scienceworks Museum, Melbourne

The Scienceworks Museum has a special exhibition on at the moment which shows how some of the science fiction in Star Wars could becoming a reality in the near future (hover cars, robot limbs, etc). It also gives them an excuse to show off some props and costumes.

But the best fact I learnt today though was: Lance Armstrong has a heart 33% larger than the average man for his height. What a FACT!

Day 119 - Sun 5th July: Flinders Railway Station, Melbourne

I thought I'd pull out another Melbourne cliche picture....Flinders Railway Station again (see Day 108)... this time by night.
