Auss First Installment: Singapore - Melbourne Victoria

on Sunday, 29th September, 6thirtypm

the great terminal 3. as nice as it it was new.


and after 7hours or so, we landed. Hello Melb!

know how the aussies spend their 24hours? 888. 8 hours of sleep, 8 hours of leisure and 8 hours of work. yes no more than 8 hours of work. we are jealous already.

melb was quite cold. abou 12 that day.
evidence of spring
straight off the flight, we started the itinery. first was the yarra river. kallang river equivalent, if you ask me.

then here. which we didnt manage to get in due to some unforseen circumstances.
but the exterior was quite worth snapping.
then their 'city hall'

see how much its like singapore.

st patrick

ouch my arm

(:

reminds me of paris. where you are not supposed to drink on the streets.
the shrine of remembrance. built in memory of the australians who died in WWII.

end of the first day. and we got back to the hotel. i didnt like the one in melb as much as the one in sydney. even though the one in sydney, they mistakingly gave me and louis a double instead of a twin bed. so we had to sleep on the same bed. of course, i divided our sides of the bed with the extra pillows. and most of the time, i would be reading on my side and him punching his psp before we doze off.

day 2

how matching, i thought.

breakfast for the day.
happy baby.

Warook cattle farm. thats where we also had our lunch.

hello, i have some food. umm you want some?
here go!

what? more zit?


hey boon, you can buy over this piece of land and grow old here. hahaha. its near mornington.

they think so.

showed us how the dogs gather the herd.

and shave the sheeps botak

he told us that for shaving one sheep, they get 2dollars. tough job!

i took this for you, boon. hahaha so your kinda place.
but the sunset's mine.

im aussie now.
i had to steal one shot. its really prohibited. we were there to watch the penguins come ashore. they are the tiniest in the penguin family. only 80cm.

the glass blowing studio


many many pieces of art

a big crow.
looking rather unwell huh? i am really referring to louis.

and the scarecrow in the winery

where they named their wine romeo and juliet. i know nothing much about wines actually, but we bought what tasted good according to the tongues.

later to the garden maze.

the maze

lavender

then mornington peninsular
had to let louis wear my coat cus as we ALL KNOW, im the manlier of the siblings. he was cold so i let him had the honour.

there were little gaps between the planks of wood and i was honestly speaking afraid to have my shoes stuck in them.


and i wanted to enjoy this properly, so i took 'em off.

the wind was crazy and messed up my hair. so much so i had to hold it to take a picture
sherman and i are the fairer members. mum looks brown here. but she really is not. and the day ends with us all feeling totally tired. all sprawled out on the hotel's bed. and i would periodically nag at louis to do this and that. like go and pack your luggage, hang up your jeans, take out the clothes ya gonna wear tmr, brush your teeth before bed and yadda yaddak.

i'm more of the mum at home to the boys than my mum. we know this. and we know thats why she's not looking alot older than me while i constantly continue let aging beat me with time.

ah, thats why i deserve that bag.

advanced birthday wishes to palley and jules. love you.
