Day 164 - Royal Arcade

Stopped at an ATM for market money this morning, very cold air. I love Melbourne city in the winter, with its darkish laneways and cosy cafes. Here's the entrance to Royal Arcade. Funny, I don't usually notice the gold ornament above the entrance.

Day 157 - Block Place

Most Saturdays I walk through this lane off Little Collins Street and towards Block Arcade. No matter what the weather, the cafes are always full. There's a lovely little jewellery shop, a good music shop (Basement Discs) and once you're in Block Arcade you can enjoy Haigh's chocolate. Today I bought chocolate peppermint frogs.

Day 55 - Arcade in Melbourne city

A bad photo of an interesting arcade. Not sure of the name but you can come in from Flinders Lane or Swanston St. It's small, dark, a little dirty, but the leadlight is great. I'm cheating with this photo because I took it on the weekend, but my camera has been taken for the day.
