Melbourne Trip Part 2
Day 8 - Another Resting day...
Well, is another resting day. So, i took a lot of that 2 fellows' photos again... haha
I think Taro was a dog in his last life. He doesn't look like a rabbit at all!!! I really do LIKE them...
Day 9 - Melbourne University Orientation helping out + First time tramp experience + Hair cut
Well, woke up quite early today to help my sister out in Melbourne University's orientation. She is helping out for her CMG production (Chinese Music Group)... It was really crowded there. We walking all around to find new member... HAHA... Anyway, first time experience... Kinda fun too...
In the afternoon, my sister brought me to the city centre from Melbourne University by tramp. First time experience again... HAHA... Is almost like our LRT, it just that the tramp drive in the middle of the road, together with the cars... Cool...
I have my haircut at 50 dollar... T.T... Kinda expensive, but the style can't be found in Malaysia =PDay 10 - Walk around + Crown buffet birthday dinner
Since i almost passed out on yesterday's helping out (the weather is too hot), i decided to rest at home whereas my sister went to the orientation. I woke up late (as usual). After having my breakfast + lunch, i walked to HighPoint shopping centre which is in walking distance from my sister's house. Bought some souvenirs from there too =P
Later on in the evening, both me and my sister dressed well, even make up. Why? Because we are going to attend a buffet dinner at Crown which my sister's friends organised for her. That is the ice cream i made. Well, it is melted, i know... HAHA...
Day 11 - Boathouse lunch + Riverside walk
Since is weekend, i was able to go out with my second sister and my future brother-in-law. We met up during lunch time and went to Boathouse which located near our house beside a river. Is a very nice restaurant. I had scallop... haha
After lunch, we walked along the river. There was some sort of competition on the river. They are fast...Day 12 -Queen's Park carnival + Very large-portion's dinner
My third sister fell sick, on her birthday. That's why i was with my second sister all day. We went to a carnival, and played the swing (the one in Genting). We never thought it will be so... (I was really too long until both of us feel nausea). Bad, we had motion sickness after that. Anyway, there was this Schnauzer there. He is about 1 year old plus. He was so cute~~
During dinner, we had this super duper large portion dinner. I was really huge and we just ordered 3 meals for 4 person. Now i know how "ang moh" got their body size and weight =PDay 13 -Tour to Philip's Island
My second sister really is GOOD!!! She took one day leave just to bring me on tour although she was really busy during the whole week. THANK YOU ER JIE!!! MUCK~~~ We decided to join a tour in the city as we are able to rest in the bus. In Victoria, even you are in bus, you need to put on seat belt. We visited a farm, Koala Conservation Centre, Nobbies and Penguin Parade.
We are so lucky that we saw a penguin which is still moulting. Damn cute one =)
On out way to Penguin Parade, there were lots of "penguin houses" along the roadside. They were specially built for penguins by rangers.
Before entering Penguin Parade, i saw this sign which really funny. It definately can't find it in Malaysia =PWhen we are in Penguin Parade, there was a tour of China men there. They talked so loudly until we can't hear what the ranger in front are saying. They even took out their camera to take the photo of penguins!!! (cameras and videos are restricted)... How rude they are...
Day 14 -Playing PS 2 + Another steak dinner =)
Another day free... Since i didn't play PS2 before, my sister brought me to future brother-in-law house to play right after his work. We played San Guo and guess what, i got motion sickness after it (is a 3D game).
My suggestion again. STEAK!!! Yeah yeah!!!
Apologise that i didn't take any photos. Returned the camera to my sister and lazy wanna upload it in my pendrive =P
Day 15 - Departing from Melbourne/Tullarmarine Airport (1.05pm GMT +10)
Yes, i am leaving today. Did i cried? The answer is yes. I cried because I AM LEAVING TARO!!! Kinda heartless that i cried because of a rabbit but not my sisters =P... I really really love + like Taro very very much...
Decided to rare a rabbit once i moved into my brother's house... One day

Melbourne Trip Part 1
Finally, finished unpacked my stuffs and able to post my Melbourne trip blog. Sorry for disappearing for so long. So now, AM BACK!!! haha...I spent 2 weeks in Melbourne and staying with my sister in Maribyrnong with 2 cute rabbits. In Melbourne, I got a chance to go to casino (my first time!!!), take tramp, visiting Melbourne University. Well, overall, Melbourne is really a good place to stay, although we have to bear with the "4 seasons a day", but the environment is totally different from here. I will definately go there again. Maybe staying but who knows =P
Ok. Enough for my nagging. Here the story goes...
Day 1 - Arriving at Tullarmarine Airport (11.50am GMT +10)
Finally, after 8 hours of flight, I am finally arriving at Melbourne Airport.
Though is XL class of Air Asia, for me, i still don't like it either. Especially for a long-distance flight. (My backside was painful!!!)
Since me and my sister took night flight, we were extreamly tired upon arriving. The weather was not as hot as during CNY so I AM LUCKY!!! HAHA... Anyway, i met my sister coursemate - Sherman Lee which is from Hong Kong. He was fetching us from the airport and we had lunch together.
Day 2 - Melbourne City
There was a huge difference between city and suburb in Melbourne. Since we are staying in suburb, we need to drive at least 20 - 30 min to reach city. Here, traffic lights are A LOT!!! That's why it took so long to reach city.
Day 3 - Crown - The City of Entertainment
After dinner, my sisters and future brother-in-law brought me to casino. In Melbourne, there is a casino in Southbank, named Crown - The City of Entertainment. Since i am 19 this year, i am allowed to enter the casino here =)
We are suppose to wait for some sort of fire show outside the tower, but after 1 hour of waiting, we didn't saw anything. We totally forgot Melbourne is in total fire-band (after the bushfire incidents)
But when i enter, i have no luck at all. I lose about 100 dollar from my sister's winning. And yet she still got another 150 dollar in cash. She really won a lot.
Day 4 - Food Paradise...
Now i know why my sisters didn't want to eat any food in Malaysia so eagerly. Melbourne has so many DELICIOUS FOOD!!!
(Sorry i didnt take any photos. Hasn't got camera from my sister yet =P)
Day 5 - Flemington Sunday Market + Chua Yeong Kai's birthday
Flemington Sunday market is held once in a month. I am so lucky that being able to visit it when i am in Melbourne =)
They sells anything here. Flowers, plants, foods, clothes, souvenirs, cards etc... There is one stall that sells cupcakes. The decorations on it doesn't look real!!! The taste is nice too... There is a lot of people queuing, that's why it took us very long to purchase it.
At night, we had a barbecue dinner in my future brother-in-law to celebrate his birthday. WE have barbecue lamb and corn. HAHA. Chocolate cake from Bread Top is up next!!!
Day 6 - Resting day...
Didn't went out today. Lunch - Maggi Mee. Dinner - My second sister bought back for us.
But, i DID took a lot of Taro and Ia-ya's photos. Who are they? Here they are... TADA!!!
They are my sister's rabbits... haha
Day 7 - Visiting Melbourne Zoo + Steak dinner by my SISTER!!!
Yes, visiting Melbourne Zoo in the afternoon. Well there isn't much animals to see. I prefer Melaka Zoo though.
Anyway, after that, we went to Safeway to buy steak and grill ourselves. It was so delicious... In Australia, steak is cheaper than pork. That's why my sister always grill herself.
To be continue...
