Here's my overdue promised updates on my Melbourne trip! We took a nite flight. Flew on 28th May nite reached on 29th Morning. We couldn't sleep on the plane as it was too distracting to sleep.
Fresh eggs!! Orange colour!!
We ended up having jet lag... We choose not to rest for the day & headed out with my aunt after dropping off her gals to sch for some sight seeing. She took us to Melbourne city... the ride was abt an hr plus & we ended sleeping & too groggy to move our butts when my aunt took us to a city park 4 us to take some pictures... so she took us to Victoria Market instead. Ducklings!! Black chicks!!
Veggies r so fresh!! Soo Big!! The beeroot sooo bright coloured!! How I wished our sch uniform can change to like their's!! (centre photo)
Had Vietnamese Beef noodles. Got the roasted meat/duck/chicken form "The Butcher" shop next to it for our dinner. Boy! It was deliciously yummy!!!!!
I had too many pictures & it takes up too much time to collage them together... so I got another way of collating my photos... hehehehehe my lazy way.
Sooo.... Tadah!!! This is wat I did! Tough can't add music... it hang when i tried to add music, so no sound, just pictures!! Enjoy enjoy!!
1st time picking apples!! The wind was super cold!! It's not apple season... most of the apples r over riped so we didn't pick much. Can't wait 4 our 2 darlings to arrive!! I love moi boots!! hahahah!! But haven't worn them since back....
Foggy morning!! Our 2 darlings flight almost had to detour to Sydney... Luckily it did not... The morning was extremly cold!! I regret not taking gloves!! My hands went numb n had frost bites... Pie in the sky was YUMMYY!!! My aunt wanted to take us for a ride on puffing billy. but it was too late... the ride was closed for the day & no birds feeding... no birds.
We went to supermarket bought some food. Aunt prepared some sandwiches for us & lots of potato chips!! Off to Philip Island we go!!! The seagulls went... "MINE!! MINE!! MINE!!" when we fed them with our left overs!! ahhahah!!! Only the seagulls in 'Finding Nemo' says dat!!
We adopted our penguins!! Have you??!!?
Another round of shopping 4 me hehehe!! Finally got Levis shop!! But not much choice of wat I wanted cos their sizes r different!! Small too small!! big too big!! ahhaha!! But I still managed to get something. hehhehe!! I wanna go SOFIA again the next time I go Melbourne!! No wonder my cousin kept suggesting it!
SYDNEY!! Not as cold as in Melbourne. Darling habour is just at our apartment doorstep!! OAKS GOLDSBROUGH APARTMENT was where we stayed in Sydney. location was v convinent. If u r traveling in group up to 6 adults is recommended to stay here!! Worth the $$!
SYDNEY Fish Market!! My Mum wanting to visit so much after hearing abt it from my sis! All seafood there super fresh!! I tried an oyster which I don't usually touch... (mummy made me try) Yes!! Fresh all rite!! & More shopping at Paddy's Market!! ehehhehe!! Everywhere I went I'll shop....
Oh ya.. the guy in the picture below the monorail.. he was munching burger i think. & the seagulls surrounding him... i tot of taking out my camera to capture a shot. My action was too slow, suddenly the birds flew & i noticed 1 of the bird flew across the guy & grab his food!! ahahahha!!! "Mine!! Mine!! Mine!!" Said the seagull...
Went back to fish market again for breakfast b4 checking out & heading back to Melbourne.
We headed up to Mt Dandenong again. This time we went earlier & we get to do wat we intended to do!!! The children enjoyed so much!! Birds feeding & Puffing Billy ride!
We head off to Mornington Peninsula. Alpaca- a llama, camel like animal. Its wool is softer than the sheep's wool! Then some wine tasting!!
End of holiday... not enough!!! We wanted to visit the snow mountains!! but we were there too early... snow only started after we left Melbourne!! Disappointed! But we still enjoyed ourselves!! HEeheheh! Like my Buys??? Hehehehhe!!! The egg timer doesn't really work. Its 3 min is too fast! My mum's half boil egg maker's water not drained even half yet!! Well, still mummy's trusty half boil egg maker is the best! The egg timer is cute to look at only. hehehehehe
An advice for future travelers... if you r not used to cold weather... do not travel during winter time!! It's freezing cold!! If can't avoid... one thing when visiting toilets, in aust all toilets have toilet papers & v clean!! But remember to bring ur own non rinse hand sanitizer!! The water is icy cold!!!
It may not be worth too to visit aust during winter as day ends at 5pm. Sky turns dark so soon... like not enough time... But good for penguin parade u don't have to wait too long hehehehe!!
