Maybe they’re crazy in Sienna as well, but they love horse racing in Melbourne. The race is the Melbourne Cup and the day it is held _is_ a public holiday in Melbourne: [http://goaustralia.about.com/cs/melbournevic/a/melbournecup2.htm](http://goaustralia.about.com/cs/melbournevic/a/melbournecup2.htm) and [http://www.melbournecup.com/](http://www.melbournecup.com/) ---

CHAPEL STREET!!! Don’t go there. Brunswick, Fitzroy, Richmond and the City are the best. Weather can get really crappy, but the summers are great (summery thunderstorms), people are friendly, nightlife is fun, lots of exciting places within a short drive. Plenty of ocean near-by (and surf!!). Enjoy. 😃 ---
