Everyday Life in Altona

We've posted a lot about specific adventures around Melbourne, but we've also had some really nice down time that we've spent in Altona. Melbourne locals always act surprised when we say we're staying in Altona. Probably because it's further than other suburbs from the city center, there's no night life, and there are a lot of retirees. But, we've grown to love Altona with its quiet small town feel, sea smell, shoreline trails, bustling main street of cafes, conveniently located grocery store, easy access train station, our Airbnb home away from home, and a place just a couple doors down from home where Brandon got his hair cut. 

Everyday life. Our everyday laundry. 

As an added bonus, here's a video of our everyday surroundings. Caution: I am not an expert videographer and the shakiness may make you nauseous. Yes, it is that bouncy even after YouTube claimed to do its anti-shake corrections. Sigh. You've been warned.
