Back in Melbourne

Arriving back in Melbourne we felt quite wrecked so decided to chill a bit in the room. Then after feeling a bit more rested we decided to go and see St Kilda's a sort of out of town beach with various pubs. Went to a pub that looked cool but the band that were playing we're a bit crap and since there was only three of us who just wanted to have one or two pints and a chat we soon left.

We met up with Mark and David in the Crown Casino who calmly disclosed that they had won a grand within ten minutes on the roulette wheel!!!

Inspired by the Twins wins I decided to give it a go. The casino is a massive massive place the size of football pitch on three floors with all sorts of gambling and gamblers. I was only willing to spend ten dollars at most so we were brought to a back corner of the casino were the cheap skates and last hopers were.

Mark and David explained all these superstitious patterns that I had to follow such as that if a number comes up twice it will come up again and always stay on a winning bet and to tell you the truth by the time I realised what it was all about I was hoping I didn't win as I was bored and had also noticed that even when someone won big the casino took at least twenty times that in lost bets. I placed three bets none came in and we left.

One plus in the casino was the fire show where three large pillars build up bursts of flames into the air until eventually the whole sky is lit up and heated up by the explosions. It felt like being close to three dragons and I was a little nervous about a seagull who seemed quite unaware of the likelihood he would be roasted at any minute (it must happen quite regularly!)
