Today we leave the Radisson in Sydney for our short visit to Melbourne - 3 nights.
Our plane leaves at 2 pm so we have most of the morning to pack, have a leisurely breakfast and lunch and walk outside a bit before we have to get our transport to the airport.
The airport was busy as lots of folks were still on holiday. The Virgin Australian flight left on time at 2 and we arrived in Melbourne at 3:35 pm.
We got our luggage and found the car service driver and went to the car for the ride to the hotel.
The tour company booked us at the Jazz Corner Hotel which was a half a block away from the Radisson.
We checked in and discovered that this property was part condos and part rental condos.
The BR was very small and hardly any room to get around in nor access the closet.
It had a full kitchen living room design.
We decided to contact the tour company the next day to see if we could move to the Radisson.
Around 5pm we decided to go to the central district (as they call downtown) for dinner.
Looking at the tourist map the hotel clerk gave us we discovered the Greek District so we decided to walk there to find a restaurant and have dinner.
We were shocked when we arrived in the so called Greek District to find that it was one block long and consisted of two restaurants, a gift store and a pastry store.
We decided to eat at Tsindos, which turned out to be a Cypriot restaurant serving Greek and Cypriot food.
We had a delicious dinner and dessert and then walked back to the hotel to get ready for our half day city tour.
