Melbourne

Today I'm flying to Melbourne, I'll have to be there from Monday morning to Sunday Evening, so here's an excellent opportunity to bring Emmanuelle along to this cosmopolitan city. Cosmopolitan... that is the only word you hear about Melbourne: Cosmopolitan. Even the Lonely Planet tells you it's a fantastic city because it is sooo cosmopolitan. When I asked my boss' wife, who adores Melbourne, what's so great about it, she answered straight away: "it's so Cosmopolitan".
After a week of hard work, the weekend and my wife arrives. Yay!. Time to explore the city, although I have to work on Saturday and Sunday. Friday night we go to a cafe with live music and dance a bit till 2 am. The next day Emmanuelle goes to explore the city and confirms the city is very cosmopolitan. That night we're off to the biggest Casino in the southern hemisphere with a couple of Emmanuelle's colleagues. The casino is not large, it is huge! You could land a plane in there it is so big, we go to sleep at 3 am.
All in all, Melbourne is a pretty city with lots of stuff for people who like cities. And yes, it is quite cosmopolitan, whatever that means.
