Road Trip to Rye: Part 2

January 14, 2013

If you haven't read Part 1 of my little road trip, click here before you read this.
After Rosebud, we headed over to Rye to go for a stroll down the shops and down the pier. One of my favourite places is right at the end of the pier. You feel like you're so far out to sea but you're really not. Of course it's tourist season right now so it's not the most secluded place, but it's a great place to sit and watch the sunset. 

Road Trip to Rosebud: Part 1

January 12, 2013

When I was younger, my dad and I used to take to the road and explore Australia, but we hadn't been adventuring for a while. We decided it might be fun to go on a day trip down the Mornington Peninsula to Rosebud, because of the abundance on thrift shops there. When we got down there we discovered the weekly Saturday market and thought we couldn't come all this way without having a peak. 

Lights and Laughs

January 10, 2013

I met up with a friend tonight that I don't think I've seen since high school. So that's about 3 years ago. She's been living in regional Victoria (crazy) and we haven't had the chance to catch up. We decided to go to the Queen Victoria Night Market but bailed fairly quickly after getting there because there were soooo many people. If you don't like crowds, do not got. I had a curry for dinner and I have to admit that it wasn't as good as last time I went. Overall I was a bit disappointed with the night market compared to some of the other times I've been. 

Best Coast @ The Hi-Fi Bar

January 7, 2013

I thought I'd get some black and white action going for this post. Mainly because the venue we went to is awful for taking photos in. The Hi-Fi Bar in Melbourne is one of my favourite places for live music because you can get up close and personal, but it's terrible to take photos in. I have a confession to make though, I'd never actually heard much of Best Coast's music prior to seeing them. I went because my friend and I made a deal. I'd go to Best Coast with him, and he'd come see Ben Howard with me.

Summadayze | Shenanigans

I dedicate this blog post to the bogan who looked at me and said "there are so many bloody hipsters here." I have made this post as hipster as possible just for you. Also I'm not a hipster just because I like to wear flowers in my hair. Anyway, here is my final post on Summadayze after my Kimbra and Mark Ronson posts. This is everything else. 

Summadayze | Mark Ronson

January 3, 2013

As soon as I found out Mark Ronson was on the lineup for Summadayze, I knew I had to go. I'm not normally a fan of DJ music but I absolutely adore Mark Ronson. It may be because he's a good looking British man, but he is also a phenomenally talented song writer, mixer and producer. I was first drawn to his music because he always has a healthy dose of brass and horns in it and slowly but surely he became one of my favourite artists. 

Summadayze | Kimbra

January 2, 2013

There's nothing better than getting free tickets to pretty much anything, but especially music festivals. Summadayze has never been a festival that I've particularly wanted to go to, but you can't turn down free tickets. The line up was okay in that Kimbra and Mark Ronson were playing. Although I hadn't heard of pretty much everyone else on the line up.
