Day 3 - Australian Institute of Sport
After our lovely time and brunch at Australian Botanic Gardens (which I didnot want to leave), we headed off to the Australian Institute of Sport. We were so excited to go and see where all the Olympic Athletes come to train at some point in their career. However we did not expect ANOTHER AWESOME surprise....
