State Library of Victoria

Our days wind down and we begin to prepare to fly home.  It is amazing how much stuff you can accumulate in a short period of time.  I spent this evening going through stacks of papers, brochures, maps, receipts etc.  It is striking how much we have settled in and how much we have done.  Melbourne, Victoria and Australia have become quite familiar to us.  It will be sad and a bit unsettling to leave at the end of the week.  It seems like we have just gotten settled, to know our way around and we are leaving the familiar.  I suspect that home in PA will seem strange when we get there. 

I have a few last things from Melbourne to post over the next few days.  My last views, a last window into the city. 

This is the State Library of Victoria.  Located on the edge of the CBD, close to RMIT & the University of Melbourne.  It is an amazing building - a place you could sit and read all day losing yourself in the quiet atmosphere.
