Hey, could any Melbourne residents tell me some exciting stuff me (14), my sister (17), and Mum (42) could do in our holiday? Good shops, fun sites, anything you enjoy! =)

Right now, you have got the Comedy Festival on if thats your scene. There is also great shopping in Chapel Street, Bridge Road, Chadstone and the City. Crown Casino is also worth a look.

The ideally shopping for you would be at Bridge Road Richmond and Chappel Street, Pharan. Maybe even Chadstone Shopping Center the Fashion Capital. For Food I would try some new restaurants in the docklands. Maybe catch a footy match at Telstra Dome while you’re there. Go to Werribee Open Range Zoo. St Kilda beach is a big tourist attraction. And the City at Night is beautiful!

Yarra Cruise
Go to Observation Deck on top of the Rialto - Collins Street
Crown Casino
For shopping - Chapel Street, QV and Melbourne Central. Shops at Melb Central Station are great.
For food I love Hard Rock Cafe - top of Bourke Street
Visit St Kilda
If you like Cafes and Italian food, then definitely Lygon Street Carlton
Enjoy Girls!
PS. Crown Promenade is great hotel.

Werribbee Open Range zoo is not bad as it is different to most other Australian zoos while the Melbourne zoo is closer to town. Good cheap shopping at the new Direct Factory Outlet at Essendon Airport. Interesting shopping and eating if you take a tram to Brunswick street or St Kilda. If your mother is a teacher she can get free entry to the museum and acquarium. There are some circus rides at the moment at Docklands, you can get there on the free city circle tram.
