Footy - July 2, 2006

To ensure I had the full-on Melbourne experience, I could not leave without visiting the MCG (Melbourne Cricket Ground) for a game of Australia's beloved sport: footy aka Aussie Rules Football. Aidan had never been either, so I bought us the tickets and he provided the transport to the city. We grabbed a tram in the rain and proceeded to suffer through the chilly, misting air to watch the semi-barbaric game with men in tiny shorts, no padding, and a broken leg on field after a collision. In short, we had a blast cheering (for the winning team, of course).
