16 - stay in a 5* hotel

last friday i had a course on oral surgery which was held at the langham hotel - ranked #1 in mebourne according to tripadvisor. we decided it was time to spoil ourselves (not that we usually deprive ourselves) and booked a table at oyster for dinner, and a room at the langham. it was to be a night of luxury - fresh oysters, delicious grilled fish, gorgeous hotel with complimentary hot chocolates on arrival, king bed, and the richest chocolate mousse from the room service menu. We also ordered a banana split - topped with pistachios no less! peanuts are clearly far too pedestrian.




the only downer to the evening was the bitter cold of melbourne streets, and the unchivalrous boys we had dinner with who ignored our unsubtle hints to give us a lift to our car which was parked a few blocks away.
