Hey guys! Today we toured the MCG, which is one of the largest arenas in Australia (holds about 100,000 people). On the lower level there is a sports museum where we learned a little more about cricket (sort of like baseball, but not really at all) and the history of sports in Australia. On our way to lunch we took a little tour of the Grand Prix course here in Melbourne and then ate lunch overlooking the field that we'll watch the Essendon Bombers take on the Sydney Swans on Saturday.
