I've been hiding my dog photos on Facebook lately, so here is a recent photo of Mogwai. It was about 34C.

Melbourne 360° Rialto – Melbourne Observation Deck closed at 6pm on 31st December 2009. It will apparently be reopened as an exclusive restaurant.

At one point I thought about getting a year pass to the Rialto so I could go at lunch times and watch the view. I never did. I suppose in a small way, its closing is my fault.

The Rialto view is much much better than the Eureka view, and it is a huge pity to see it go. I may try the restaurant one day.

I took one last trip to Rialto last week to document some of the best views in the city, and the observation deck interior.

Did you know that the British Empire only started counting the 1st of January as the start of the year from 1752?
