Yet another amazing bonus about living in Melbourne - we would NEVER have been given this 'gift' in England...... It was very well run (obviously busy though) and transport went on virtually all night...
I recall a time about 4 years ago when my sister went to Trafalgar Square in London to join in the revelry and enjoy the fireworks and afterwards could not get home! She had to walk about 2 hours to get back to where she was staying as London transport (which was very sparse) completely stopped!
How lucky we were last night!
Happy New Year to you! Thanks for your very nice comments on my blog!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, it was so nice to 'meet' you.
ReplyDeletePublic transport is one of the real downsides about the location of our house. We didn't venture out last night, but it would have been a long walk home, for sure!
Thanks for the tip! We considered heading in for the fireworks in Trafalgar Square but in the end chose our warm house and comfy couches and watched it on TV. It looked amazing. I think it is best if you book a room in town for New Years and make an event of it. Sydney fireworks are spectacular too if you ever get up that way for New Years.
