Melbourne Scrap Book, Part 1

A week before my birthday me and my bestie Sose went to Melbourne for a break.
It has been 5 years since my first visit (the first for Sose) and as our stay would be longer, I wanted to pack as much of the Melbourne experience as i could.
Most of that experience would be shopping- the hit list were the usual spots, Harbour Town, DFO, Queen Victoria market and all the outlets I could google up. 
But aside the shopping, the city itself is so easily explored by foot, i could go on- great places to eat, so many sights to behold, lane ways to explore and yes, shopping trips that will burn a hole in your wallet.
I'll let the pictures speak of the Osumnez of Melbz . . .
