Tennis in Melbourne


The Opening Ceremony

Friday’s off of school have been a massive blessing with this intensive teaching course. It’s a relief come Thursday, to know a long weekend awaits us students. Our lovely friend “B” suggested that we go the the Australian opening ceremony in Melbourne to watch the tennis. Rhiannon, Whitney and I hopped a train from Geelong into Melbourne to get our tickets for ground floor day passes. The area was beautiful, there were beer gardens surrounding the outside and masses of people sitting on the grass watching the big sceens of the games. I’m not really an enthusiastic tennis lover but the days was packed with Aussies wearing the Australian flag and singing rowdy songs. We saw Serena or Venus, not sure which one, doing their warm up practice and watched a bunch of other games of people I don’t know about.
