Melbourne residents have become somewhat accustomed to the world changing overnight.
But for what felt like the first time, they went to bed on Tuesday knowing they would wake up to a better version of their city.
Australia’s second-biggest city has been under harsh lockdown since July and although many businesses and individuals suffered greatly there is no denying it was effective.
On 26 October, Daniel Andrews, premier of the state of Victoria, announced the largest step in reopening for Melbourne so far, with non-essential stores, cafes, bars and restaurants able to open, and the “stay at home” orders lifted.
