Melbourne Trip!
As i promised...let me present you MY MELBOURNE TRIP!!!!!!!
JENG!! JENG!!! JENG!!! JENG!!!!!!!!!!
Okay lar...not that big deal lar...but it was still the best trip ever...cause it's MELBOURNE! officially my favorite state in Australia!The trip was five days and four nights...i thought it would be enough...but NO! it wasn't...if any of you guys want to visit Melbourne...at least go there for one week! there are still alot of places that i would like to go...but there wasn't enough time...definitely will go back again for the stuff that i missed...
I took Tiger Airways to Melbourne...i have to say it was cheap...but then they have lots of weird charges...like if we wanna check in our luggage...need money...need additional kg...need money...and what the hell...they only gave us 7kg for our luggage weight...of course need to add additional weight lo...food need money...water need money...what also money...i guess thats what we get when we go for cheap air lines...
After an hour plus flight...finally...Melbourne city!!
Had breakfast in Little Broke Street...yum...i was starving at the time....
After breakfast....it was time to explore the city...ahhhhh....i loveeeee it!!!
The city was huge...even china town was a hundred times bigger than Adelaide's one...alot of restaurants...and wuuu...they even had pink trams...when we saw that...my friends were like 'Jessie...thats your tram!!!!!' haha...well i guess everyone knows my favorite color is pink now...
We tried to look for Hard Rock Cafe which was still marked on the map...but when we got there...IT'S GONE!! NO MORE!!! CLOSED DOWN!!! GIANT GUITAR HILANG!!
SEE...sudah tutup!
Came across this giant crab when i walked through china town...yummmm....but no money lar...maybe next time! If you think of it...aw..poor thing..waiting to be killed and eaten...
Second day...woke up damn early...and had breakfast! and then off we went to the Great Ocean Road!
You have no idea how beautiful the sceneries were...the view along great ocean road tops my list...don't believe me? see it for yourself!
Stopped for lunch in noon...saw a really cool dog...had fish and chips....and a picture of our coach...none of us was brave enough to drive in an unfamiliar city...so ended up we joined the tour...stress free!!!
After hours of driving...finally we reached the twelve apostles...
Take a deep breath...and enjoy the pictures...they are just amazing!!!!!! no words can describe how pretty the views were...
And guess what...
I WENT ON THE HELICOPTER!!!!!!!! TO SEE THE TWELVE APOSTLES!!!!!
Rules before getting on...
I know...don't hate me! hah...neh neh bu bu...
Huahaha...it was really like in the movies!!!
Don't siao siao with the views...look at them...i have two good reasons for not wanting to come back down to ground!
1. the helicopter was really really cool....!!! very seok!!!
2. the views up there...OH MY GOD! I just love my camera...it takes really pretty pictures ! and its pink!
What goes up must come down...even though i was reluctant to get off the helicopter...i still had to...well...at least the experience was great...i will wait for my very rich husband to buy me a private helicopter next time! Next stop...the Loch Ard Gorge
Third day...while having breakfast...our driver gave us some bird food...and looky...BIRDS!!
I tell you lo...the birds were not scared of us at all...we were more afraid of them then them of us...i grabbed a handful of bird food...open my palm...and they will fly to you just like that!
And i got the pink one!!!!! I guess it knows i love pink...but it's fat...HEAVY!
Went on an old version train ride! the picture looks like my head is smoking!
They have proper seats in the train...but no...we were not suppose to sit on the seats...we were suppose to sit like this...so actually we were all sitting on the windows...with our legs hanging out...
Look at Angela's boots...the one on the left!
Our driver asked her...'what size are you?' six she answered.
the driver continued...'ahh...my wife is exactly that size...and she needs a pair of boots...thank you!'
He then started unzipping her boots and took them off and left! LOL
Wonder what happened to Angela's boots? well...now you know!
Lunch for the day...buffet grilled meat...with salads...best!
Hoho...took some pictures of koalas...damn cute!
Here is a video of the koala eating! haha..it's so cute!!!
How can we not see the night view of Melbourne? We had to!!!!
My camera not bad right! Love the pictures! Love the views!
Went for dessert! and suddenly i turned into a midget!
\
Fourth day...Sovereign Hill!!
It was a gold mine hundred years ago! and we can see what the mines look like..how the people then lived...how they dressed...how they talked!
Don't siao siao...this piece of small rock can buy you a kancil!
There was this gold smelting session where the guy showed us the process of creating a gold block.
Because we were so drop dead gorgeous...and we successfully seduced the guy...(obviously joking)....we had the chance to hold and took photos with the GOLD BLOCK! PURE GOLD!!!!!!
It was very heavy for a little rock, 3kg to be exact! and it is worth $97,000 in the market currently. How nice if i could take that home with me!
Had lunch....(hah...love showing you guys what i had)
They are real people by the way...not wax figures or something!
It wouldn't be complete without a visit to Melbourne's pancake house would it! I just love pancakes!!!
One place you have to visit if you are in Melbourne...and it's the Queen Victoria Market!
Heaps of cheap stuff! and it looks and feels like home! like our pasar back home! LOVE IT!
One thing got me very excited...they have puppies!! awwwww......adorable!!
One weird looking fish! It looks like a dragon with legs? no idea..
Princess dog bowl and it's pink!!! and really cute dog socks! makes me miss Cookie even more...darn...
These two are really funny...to me...
Yummy...CHUROS! MY FAV!!
Anyone interested in a mankini? it looks hot! it really does! really! no lie!
Amazing greeting cards...
Pretty flowers right?
They are actually carved out of soaps! This is what i call art!
Dua lagi tempat you have to go for shopping! Bridge Road and DFO! Heaps of shops lor...really...we hadn't have time to really take our time and shop! and i was already broke by then...the torture!! It was pure torture when u saw heaps of stuff that you really want to get but you can't!! THE AGONY!!
Got back home with Qantas...and boy oh boy...Qantas is in alot of trouble now with the two incidents of flight screw-ups! But i am home safe and sound...thank you god!
It wouldn't be sane if we came back without getting KK DOUGNUTS!!!!
Yes...i am gaining weight yet i am still eating all these junks! I know!
Bah...finally finished the entry...was getting really lazy to write anything...really had an urge to just show you guys the pictures without saying anything...hehehe..but i guess i pulled it off in the end with really short shortttt talks with each set of pictures.
Okay lor...gonna go to sleep now!
Good Night
Jessie
