Australian Open Tennis Championships 2012

Melbourne is currently hosting the Australian Open 2012, which is said to bring over 800,000 people from all around the world to the beautiful Aussie city. Last week I was in Richmond, just a few minutes from Melbourne Park where the tournament is held, so I went to see what's happening.
It's really fun. The atmosphere was quite nice and you could hear any spoken language of the globe from the other visitors! Even though it was a bit cloudy on that day, some people got a bit sunburned. The sun here is Australia is really powerful, so need to be careful when exposed to its rays!

    were there any fights at the tennis when you were hearing all of these languages from around the world?
    usually it's between the yugoslavs but sometimes the Greeks, Macedonians and turks have fun too:)
