![[MELBOURNE] oo2. Caffe e Torta](https://viktoriajean.files.wordpress.com/2013/12/caffe-e-torta-interior-4.jpg?w=1024)
Upon touchdown I had managed to catch a good nights’ sleep (albeit, due to time difference, it was 3am Melbourne time when I finally crashed), and even woke up for hotel breakfast early next morning.
