Hi Guys,
Sorry - have had IT issues at home. At work now and can tell you I was in Melb Monday and yesterday. Maybe I am spoilt in Syd but I honestly didn't think much of YMML. Vantage points aren't so great, and a bit too far away from the action! Lots of construction going on so maybe in a few years it might be better but was disappointed to be unable to see much of the international apron. Good photo ops at the approach to Rwy 16, though, but a shame you don't get to see the touchdown.
Maybe they coud spend some $ after the new terminal and set aside a viewing area around the control tower or Bureau of Met. Drove out to Avalon - apart from the remains of EBU, not much to see at all! Nice new shiny terminal, no movement! Had a quick reckky around Essendon which was a little interesting...
Am I being too harsh, guys?
