Today we spent the first half of the afternoon exploring the State Gallery of Victoria. The gallery had an impressive display of art from 15th and 16th century Europe as well as many exhibits of pacific island art. Some of the art from the South Pacific in Islands around Australia were my favorites. It is amazing to see what great craftsmen the islanders were to carve such intricate pieces out of wood.

In the later afternoon we took a tram to St. Kilda Beach, one of the popular vacation spots in Melbourne. The beach was incredibly windy and a little too cool to stay out on all day. We grabbed some light lunch and took a tram back to get some more work done later that day.
