Melbourne! Ghost of Harold Holt! City + River Splendour!! 36km/2Days Medium
**Epic Melbourne! Ghost of Harold Holt! City and River Splendour!! 36km/2Days Medium**
Its time to go to Melbourne!! Fly in Friday 19 June and convince your boss to have Monday 22 June off, also!!
**Day One - Mornington Peninsula, Ghost of Harold Holt/ Portsea and Sorrento!**
We commence **5:50AM** at Flinders Street Train Station, Melbourne CBD, for our train/bus trip to Portsea, Mornington Peninsula. We head into the Point Nepean National Park where, 7km in, we have early lunch + bathroom break at Fort Nepean. The views into Port Phillip Bay are amazing. **NO SHOPS HERE; MEMBERS MUST BRING LUNCH**.
After lunch we hike out to the tip of Mornington Peninsula before turning back to find Cheviot Beach, where PM Harry Holt vanished 17 December 1967, never to be seen again. There is something very fishy about this: I'll explain on the day!
Suspicions aroused, we hit Butlers Track and amazing views into the Bass Strait all the way to Portsea Surf Beach, a bathroom break and a snack for the hungry ones! Farnsworth Track and local roads lead to Sorrento which we inspect before re-joining the same public transport links back to Flinders Street Station, CBD, by no later than 7:30PM.
**Total Day 1 is 19km**.
**Day Two - Brighton Beach, Trendy St Kilda, Botanic Gardens, Yarra River and Federation Square!**
We commence **9:37am** Flinders Street Station and train to Brighton Beach where we strike out along Port Phillip Bay waterfront for the CBD. About 9km in we stop for lunch in the ever-so-trendy and interesting Fitzroy Street, St Kilda, an exciting destination!
After lunch we head into the famous Albert Park, skirting the grand lake, and then muscle across to the Botanic Gardens, its lake and do some "island hopping"! Out of these amazing gardens we find the Yarra River, which we cross, stroll past the famous sporting precinct (MCG and all that!) and work around to Federation Square which is right next to Flinders Street station. The Transport Hotel is handy for a quick beer to finish the day off.
I will suggest a restaurant, in the CBD, for a **group dinner on Sunday night** for Members who are staying over to Monday. We finish too late on Saturday for this option.
**Total Day 2 is 17km**.
**Meeting Place and Transport:** Both days start at Flinders Street Station. Saturday, train departs Platform 6 at **6:07am**. Saturday fares are about $30 in total. Sunday, train departs Platform 10 at 9:37am and the fare is about $5. Members must buy a **Myki Card**, available from all 7 Eleven stores in Melbourne and many other shops. **Meet at Flinders Street Station entrance, under the clock tower on St Kilda Road, by NO LATER THAN 5:50 am on Saturday and 9:15am on Sunday.**
**What to bring:** Trail runners or trainers; 1.5 – 2 litres of water, refill available; hydrolytes; two snacks and one lunch for Saturday; light rain jacket as always. **NO SHOPS FOR LUNCH STOP ON SATURDAY, PLENTY OF FOOD SHOPS ON SUNDAY!**
Suggested Donation: $80
**Pub:** Saturday is too late a finish. I suggest Transport Hotel, Federation Square, on Sunday

Explore Melbourne is the largest meetup group in Australia. We have eight simple rules in place to protect our community and for everyone to have a positive experience.
❌ Not a dating group! – We’re here to make friends, not find soulmates. No flirty business, please!
📵 No phone numbers, please! – Feel free to swap social media if both parties are cool with it, but let’s keep our digits private. Please don’t add people to WhatsApp or other groups.
🔞 Our events are only open to people aged 18 and older.
📢 Please do not advertise other events or groups.
😅 Don’t be a social octopus! – Give people space to chat with others. Please don't be clingy.
🚗 We don't allow carpooling due to safety incidents/our public liability insurance not covering motor related accidents.
💰 No sales pitches! – No selling, no MLMs, no pyramid schemes, no “life-changing mentorship” offers—let’s keep things scam-free.
📸 Cameras welcome, but… – please refrain from taking photos of our members for privacy reasons.
By joining this event, you’re giving us a virtual pinky promise 🤝 that you’ll follow the rules. Break them, and—poof!—you’re out for good. No second chances, no do-overs. Let’s keep it fun, friendly, and drama-free!
**Liability Waiver:**
The organizer of this group cannot accept any liability for any loss, damage, injury, or accident to participants or their property at this event. By participating in this event, you're taking responsibility for your safety and well-being.

Community Conversations: The Art of Boredom
The Art of Boredom: Reclaiming Stillness in a Frantic World.
We live in a world of constant stimulation, where time often feels like a commodity that owns us.
Somewhere along the way, with our pace of life we've lost a vital human capacity: the ability to simply sit with our own thoughts and feel "bored." But what happens to our mental health, our creativity, and our relationships when we never pause!
Join us for our next Community Conversation as we explore The Art of Boredom. Our guest sparker will draw on her unique background to help us explore how reclaiming the "unstructured pause" is actually the first step toward building a deeper, more compassionate connection with ourselves and our neighbourhood.
Community Conversations is an initiative of the Boroondara Baha'i community, held monthly, to bring like-minded people together to explore themes around current challenges, strengthen connection and understanding.
This is a free event and all are invited to attend.
Please RSVP to register: https://bit.ly/4tWjlDm

Meditation and Discussion Group: The Laws of the Universe
Join Stephen Fiyalko, President of the Melbourne Theosophical Society for meditation, self attunement, study and discussion on the Laws of the Universe.
We welcome all to join at 5:30pm for a 30 min Meditation and will begin the discussion group at 6:00pm. For those who prefer to just attend the discussion group you're welcome to arrive at 6pm.
An understanding of and action within the Laws through our choices give practical tools for facing, managing and surmounting with confidence the many challenges we face in our daily lives, in society and the world itself. Ignorance of the Laws can leave us adrift to be buffeted and feel overwhelmed by stormy seas.
Each week will look at one of the twelve Laws which are principles, not rules, seeking a deeper understanding of that Law, our and their inter-relationship with the other Laws.
Discussion will involve sharing stories from our lives which contribute to a growing understanding and confidence in our lives.
Each session is free, but donations are welcome.
