And I'm back from my Australia trip ! (:
Yeah, and it was 2 days back.
The trip was quite a fruitful one, though all of us were like, " WILL WE GET H1N1? "
Hahaha ! Imagine how worried i were, practically talking to my sister about the symptoms of H1N1 every night before we went to bed..

12th June, Friday

Stayed home the entire day to have my luggage packed.
On call for cab and headed down to the airport to meet up with relatives..
Yeah, had dinner there and got up the plane for Melbourne.
Before flying, chatted with Shimin on the phone.
Not forgetting, Derrick and Christ too, who was with her..

13th June, Saturday

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ELLE ! (:

Elle was there with us in Australia, but sadly, we didn't get to celebrate with her as we were all worn out.
Reached Melbourne Airport in the morning and headed to the hotel to put our luggages aside.
Next, we went for a train well. It was extremely cold over there, and know what, the train isn't enclosed and the wind was extremely strong ):
Was supposed to enjoy viewing the scenery, but Sara and I both fell asleep on the train. Haha !
Headed for a lunch buffet next. Food was great over there ! Yummy.
Shopping was next ! Didn't got anything as nothing caught my eye. All i bought was food, and yes, i knew i would grow fatter.. Is that a good or a bad thing? Hahah.
Went to have Chinese food for dinner and got back to the hotel.
I actually slept at 6pm, Singapore timing ! Ohmy. SO SO EARLY.

14th June, Sunday

Had breakfast in the hotel and we left for shopping at Harbour Centre.
The apparels sold over there were cheap, lowest at $2 per piece ! My god. Hahaha.
Yups, because that's an export centre (:
Headed for the farms, whereby we get to see cows, sheeps, kangaroos and many animals..
And i was totally terrified when we had to enter an area where the roosters, ducks and several different types of birds were left walking around freely..
But it wasn't the worst. Haha.
I panicked more when i saw all the kangaroos hopping towards us ! HAHAHA !
And they are kinda big. Sara even pulled Grandma backwards when that happened.
Hahaa.
Also went to the Chocolate Factory (:
Got some chocolates back, beautiful !
Next, we left for the farm and went for the Penguin Show at Phillips Island.
They were so tiny, veryvery tiny. There wasn't much to see and left earlier for our dinner.
Hotel next, and to bed again (:

15th June, Monday

There wasn't much that happened on this day.
Had a total of 4 hours of bus ride to go to the Great Ocean Road.
Sandee, Eunice and afew of them were feeling nauseous, car sick !
That was because we were going rounds and rounds around the mountain.
Sara was extremely funny. She used the mask to cover her eyes so that she wouldn't get so giddy. Look at the picture up there ! *
Couldn't resist but to snap a shot of her.
Finally, we got to our destination and the scenery was quite nice (:
With 12 apostles and the london bridge..
After snapping a number of shots, we took 4 hours of bus back for our dinner and back to the hotel..

16th June, Tuesday

It was a full shopping day ! (:
Went to a shopping mall, kinda big shopping mall that Sara, Eunice, Cherry, Elle and I couldn't recognise the place that we should meet our parents at.. Didn't get anything much from there and we left for LV, Prada shops.
We went back to Harbour Centre to shop again as we didn't spend enough time shopping
previously.
Shopped for awhile and Sara and I settled in a restaurant to find something to munch on as we were pretty bored..
Waited for our parents and relatives to be done and we left for dinner.
And back to the hotel to use the computer !
Dad left for Singapore as he got to work and sister and I went to sleep with my mum as she was alone for that night..
She started telling us how both my dad and her met, why she actually fell for him and stuffs.
Sara and I were laughing our ass off. Hahaha.
The three of us chatted till quite late before going to bed.

17th June, Wednesday

Woke up very early to take the plane to Sydney.
Went to sit on a cruise to see the scenery there, the Opera House (:
Alighted at different areas to snap pictures, but just different angles of the Opera House.
HAHA. That reminds me of something ! Oops.
Nothing much after that, but only dinner..
An early night again..

18th June, Thursday

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GRANDMA !

Breakfast in hotel, and shopping at the factory outlet was next..
Didnt have much to buy there.. And as Sara and I were feeling hungry, we settled our lunch at Subway..
Got up the coach earlier with her while waiting for the rest of them.
Headed off to the aquarium, quite similar to Singapore's Underwater world.
But still, Singapore's better ! Haaha.
Spent ard 2 hours there and we left for Paddy's Market.
That place looks so much like Singapore's Bugis Street on their ground level.
But 2nd, 3rd level was much better..
Mum then suggested buying a cake for Grandma as it was her birthday.
Couldn't find a whole round cake, but only slices ):
Guess what my mum suggested. Donuts -.-
HAHAHA ! She said, its the thought that counts right ?
I told her, her next birthday, I'll give her muffins/brownies. Look at how thoughtful i am, mum. HAHA. And she started laughing away..
Didn't get any cake in the end as there isn't any available..
Went for dinner buffet at the Casino.. Got a poor appetite, didn't had much food..
Food wasn't that appealing either.. Hahaa.
To the hotel next.. Sandee and Eunice were sweet enough to walk afew streets away to get a
cake for Grandma..
Gave her a birthday surprise in the hotel and had our cakes.
Had a good chat with cousins and all before going to bed..

19th June, Friday

Breakfast as usual and we left for Sydney Tower..
Sat 2 different rides inside there..
Went up to the Observation Tower to view the scenery of Sydney too.
Had our lunch next , was pretty rushed and we gotta leave for the airport very soon.
Checked in and flew back to Singapore (:
And cabbed home with my mum and sisters..


And i realised, this is an extremely long post !
It has been years since i wrote a post like this.
Will update my blog soon with pictures of my daily life hopefully..
tata..
