Our apartment is in the Docklands, a development west of the Central Business District. We are at the end of the Collins Street tram line and overlook the Dock library.

Scott doesn't like heights, so the 19th floor balcony in Auckland was totally ignored. Here we are on the 4th floor and have a good view of neighboring buildings. He was sitting on the couch watching the news, and suddenly realized there were window washers on one of those buildings.
We got out ahead of the predicted rain and checked out some of the neighborhood.

Behind the library, we could look across the docklands to the north shore, including the Melbourne "Eye." You will notice the kayaks at the bottom of the pier. Right behind us were about 30 people who were going on a kayak tour, all trying to get into their gear. It made the walkway a little chaotic. Later, from our balcony we could see the 2-person kayaks going down the Yarra.
