We are now in Melbourne and staying for another 4 days. Any suggestions for having a great time? 
We are traveling the country for 4 more weeks (melbourne -> alice springs -> ayers rock -> cairns -> driving down east coast to brisbane -> home).
Absolutely lovely country and very nice and helpful people so far! 
Cheers

In Melbourne make sure you visit the Italian restaurants on Lygon St in Carlton, along with checking out Chapel St in South Yarra, along with Acland & Fitzroy St's in St Kilda, they are always great spots for food and bars and so on, as is the marvellous Crown casino.
Also be sure to go do a few laps on the Albert Park Grand Prix track (it's free!).
And don't forget to go visit the bathrooms on level 35 of the sofitel melbourne, one of the best views in the city, they're even in the tourist guide.
If you've got time the great ocean road drive down to lorne is always beautiful, albeit a tad chilly down that way this time of the year.
