Day trip out of Melbourne. Only 90 minutes out of Melbourne and a great place to bring kids - they will be enthralled by the Penguin Parade, which takes place at night.
A day trip out of Sydney. Good food and of course good wine.
Nice places to stay in if you want to make the trip a weekend break.
The only football stadium with a tube station named after it! Only a stone's throw away from the Arsemal tube station, go savour the atmosphere of a Premiership football match and admire the Art Deco architecture of the listed East Stand Building. Better still, read Nick Hornby's Fever Pitch before going! Matches usually take place on alternate Saturdays/Sundays from August to May.
PS. This review may be a tad biased, coming from an Arsenal fan, but even a non-football fan will enjoy the matchday atmosphere. My wife can attest to that!
