Luna Park, St. Kilda, Australia

October 1, 2014
Luna Park, St. Kilda, Australia 

  
Entry to the park is free.  You just pay for the rides.  Russ and I enjoyed an afternoon stroll around the park.



Russ is the black speck on the left.  The roller coaster runs around the perimeter of the park.



Built in 1913, celebrating 100 year anniversary!



Turnstile at the entry


The kiddie rides are so retro.   I love them!



Really cool tile mosaics on this building 


I found the artist's signature in 3 locations dated 2010, 2011 & 2012


In a previous blog of the Melbourne Museum, Russ took my photo on the Luna Moon which originated here at the park :)

      Today is the first day I have accessed the blog from a computer -vs- the iPad, so I am actually seeing the comments. Thanks for commenting!
      Spencer, you would love this place. My favourite big city is Sydney and Russ's is Melbourne. So, put Australia on your future travel list :)

    3. You two would have a blast here! Wide bike paths and courteous drivers - imagine that!
      Great food and architecture. And if you don't like the weather in Melbourne, just wait a minute and it will change :)
