Victoria’s capital city Melbourne is one of the easier places to explore in Australia. Because the city is flat and arranged in a well planned grid pattern, as well as being compact, it’s easy to get around in. However, that does not mean you’ll be bored silly, because there’s heaps of things to see and do in marvellous Melbourne

New visitors to Melbourne often begin their travels by hopping on the City Circle Tram. It travels around the outside of the main business and shopping area, giving you a good introduction to the places you might wish to visit later. Try walking initially, and if you follow the Golden Mile Trail, you’ll get to see many of Melbourne’s most well known historic sites.

If we made an effort to just list the names of the many galleries and museums that make up the complex of buildings called the Vatican Museums, that would fill many pages. And if we took the next step - to list all of the artists and great art works held in those buildings - that would fill books. In fact, the Vatican itself has filled volumes with such information at the Vatican library.

It was Pope Julius II who in 1506 started the Vatican’s collection of great art with his purchase of the sculpture Laocoon and his sons as they battle a mighty sea creature. From there, the Vatican collection has grown to dozens of galleries and museums and to literally thousands of works of fine art.

If you have plans to fly with your pet, you are part of a growing trend that has been increasing for the last number of years. Most airlines will charge a nominal fee to allow your small pet to accompany you, if it will fit into a FAA approved pet carrier that is small enough to stow under your seat. The following important info can help you keep your pet safe, healthy, and happy on airplane flights.

When you book a flight, it is a good idea to make reservations for yourself and your pet as early as you can. You must inform the airline that you want to bring your pet with you. It is extremely important to tell them, as they will only allow a limited number of pets on each flight. Some airlines don’t allow pets at all, particularly on international flights. Always confirm your flight the day before you’re trip. If you’re traveling internationally you need to confirm your trip seventy-two hours before you fly.
