I loved the trams in Melbourne, I so wish these were in Sydney. And so wonderful to see that they have kept the historic 35 city tram running. If you are travelling to Melbourne all the trams are free within the city circle, such a wonderful idea and makes it so easy to get around. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________ #melbournecity #melbournetodo #melbournetransport #melbournetram #melbournecbd #southbank #visitmelbourne #melbournecoffee #mondaycoffee #melbournespring #melbourneskyline #travel #instatravel #melbournelife #blueskies #melbourneblog #melbourneblogger #yarrariver #melbourne #australia #home #mondaymotiviation #today

This is an old Irish town in Walcha, NSW near Thun This is an old Irish town in Walcha, NSW near Thunderbolts Way. Originally this land would have housed 10 families mostly Irish in slab and shingle dwellings before these houses were built. This is all that is left of this old pioneering village. It is hard to imagine what it would have been like for these families all those years ago to come to a place so foreign and cut off from their birthplace. _______________________________ @visitnsw @australia @australianhistorichomes @australianhiker @bcf.australia @colemanaustralia #newsouthwales #seeaustralia #ilovesydney #sunset #sunrise_and_sunsets #sky_sultans #explore_bluemountains #bluemtsaus #sydney #igerssydney #australia #australiagram #mountains_shots #amazing_shots #exploringaustralia #longexposure_shots #longexpoelite #ig_australia #australia_shotz #wow_australia2018 #gramslayers #earth_shotz #passionpassport #canonaustralia #canon_photos #teamcanon #sunset_vision #scenicworld_aus
