How did I go from this. Modern China where Shanghai has ultramodern architecture and even sleep pods for travellers to Melbourne Airport where I’m scratching my head about how to get home. Our airport seems provincial because there is no train. It’s either a 0 Uber ride home or going to the Centre of the City on a Sky Bus only to catch a tram out to the Melbourne. How can tourists take Melbourne seriously when there is no reliable cost-effective way to get into and out of the airport. #traintomelbourneairport #melbournepublictransport #shanghaiairport #fasttraintoairport

It’s a long way to the top when you want to see where they play rock ‘n’ roll. Nearly killed me. My tip is take a car. My Uber dropped me at the bottom. AC/DC played there in 1978. Maybe they also had to walk up 😆Red Rocks is one of the top 10 concert venues in the US. #denver #acdc #livemusic #redrocksamphitheater #seniortravel

Epic.
Beautiful view and lovely of you
Being originally a Melbourne girl, how cool is ‘Ling Way to the Top’!
I might have mentioned before, our son in law is in the band King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. They’ve played Red Rocks a few times and love it. It looks like an amazing venue, especially with the rocks lit up at night and the city lights in the background.

Blimey - what an epic and worth it climb!!
What an amazing place 🤩 ! The perfect place for AC/DC to put on a show too . ( I was in the Melbourne City the day they did their iconic film clip to this song , trying to catch a tram back to work. 😆 )
