Melbourne!
So yesterday i went to melbourne with school and we went to the arts center. This is the place where all the shows are held well many of them are, and it was amazing! When the building was built it took 3 million dollars to build, if you were to rebuild it today it would cost 3 billion dollars. The place was so pretty. the architect died and apparently he's some famous guy that got all these awards. The sad thing about going to the building is that in most places of it you cannot take pictures. so i wasn't able to get all that many pictures of the place. but anyways. The building had an absolute ton of marble. all the floors were covered in this certain type of marble. and the guy who created it tried to do a whole australian theme, with the colors and being all in the desert and stuff. very neat. anyways. we went to see this show called "Cranked" it was a bit strange and hard to explain, but it was really good. its more of a story you have to explain in person. So i didnt get to go see all that much in Melbourne, but i'll have many more chances, so thats not a problem.
