Melbourne - Rained out at St Kilda

But at Least it was Memorable
St Kilda is a beach town south of Melbourne a few kilometers.  We went to check out the Sunday market and as soon as we stepped off the tram a nasty storm hit.  It was so windy and rainy that we ducked under one of the vendor's tents.  It got worse and worse - to the point that some of us grasped the tents-sides and roof poles to keep it from being blown away.  For a few precarious moments I thought I might go airborn and get a birdseye view of the town.
Once the rain stopped the vendors packed up and left.  We dried off at a cafe, sipping coffee and tea and then jumped back on the tram.
