Melbourne Cup
Went to Melbourne Cup, the race that stops Australia. Melbourne cup is a real experience, everyone dresses up and basically drinks Champagne all day (with the odd bit of chicken) and watches (bets) on the Horse races. Melbourne turned on a hot magical day with Makybe Diva riding to the third consecutive win (A feat only equaled by Phar Lap back in the 1930’s).

There’s no photos of the actual horses?
It was a bit hard to get closer to the track from where I was standing but you can see the race (horses) Here and Here
Unfortunately the presentation area was around the other side which was a tad difficult to get to…
