Da' Dome an ting

The one thing everyone says is the epitome of Australian culture and cannot be missed when visiting Melbourne is a trip to the Telstra Dome to see a famous “Aussie Rules” football match- So of course we went… and caught a really good, tension- filled match between the two big teams in Melbourne (John: it was Carlton and the Western Bulldogs)- the place was huge! With thousands of screaming fans (one in particular behind me continued to scream “go blue boys!!” repeatedly for the whole match- I was ready for grabbing her damn flag and giving her a good wack by the end) Other than that- really good fun- basically like Irish Gaelic Football- big muscley men thrashing each other for an hour or so.
