Melbourne on Sunday

Having watch the Grand Final and witnessing a very comprehensive victory by Collingwood, we retired quite early. With daylight saving commencing today, we were all awake and ready to move on by 8.30am.
We decided a visit to the Queen Victoria Markets were in order. Having last visited the markets approximately 10 years ago, we were a little dissapointed with the wares being sold. We were at the markets for an hour and a half before deciding to find a spot to park whilst waiting to board The Spirit of Tasmania.
We found a nice spot a few kilometres down the road from Station Pier and waited four or so hours before we could commence boarding. The time to board finally arrived and we drove onto the ship. Whilst boarding we noticed Roothy and his crew from 4WD Action were also travelling to Tasmania.
By 6.00pm we were on board and settled into our cabin for the journey over. We had a meal at the "Captain's Table" restaurant on board and were very surprised with the quality of the food on offer.
After a drink or two we retired to our cabin. We woke a few times during the night and felt the ship rocking and swaying as we crossed Bass Straight.
