After breakfast, we took an 8 minute drive to the Australian War Memorial (Historical), since it was so close to where we had breakfast. It had free entry, but we couldn't find a place to park and had to walk for a while. The memorial was massive. There were displays of guns, vehicles, and even a fully restored WWII bomber. There were touchscreens and info displays, and everything was so well kept. Ethan got lost in the halls, but we eventually found him sitting in an army jeep, and he was at us for accidentally leaving him behind. By the time we saw all of the memorial, we walked outside to a a face full of sun and realized we had been in there for almost a whole day.It was at that same time that we realized we also skipped lunch, and we were getting hungry.
It was almost 4:30 when we stopped by an Asian restaurant called Akiba, It looked extremely popular, as even at 4:30 it was almost full. We ordered some food in the classic East Asian style of sharing plates of food. We got pork buns, Korean style meats, potstickers, clams and oysters, and a whole duck. Nothing was left after we were done, we ate everything.
To enjoy the rest of the evening, we went to the coastline to walk along peacefully, as well as see the National Carillon bell ring. After a short while we drove back to our hotel to get some sleep as it was close to 9:00, and Chris didn't want to make another mistake of getting drunk and doing something stupid as he did in Arlie Beach.
