Melbourne Part One


where is shen?
hahaa yes i am in melbourne for nearly a week..and two more days i will be back in malaysia.
i simply love melbourne.
they don't have sucky not puntcual ktm train with freaking bad human odour in it.
instead they have trams which are available every minute, smells good, and you don't have to push your way up and down the trams for people there actually queued up.
simple as that.
and food there of course is more than heaven.
melbourne is a food galore..
a great place for great eater like me.
gosh and now i am totally pumped up.... ish..


Place 1 : San Churro Chocolate

i totally went bezerk looking at those chocolates.

most likely i put on 1kg after leaving the shop..
but i am willing to sacrifice my weight just for super delicious chocolates like this.
and even mummy enjoyed the chocolate coffee..
so why not me?
*evil evil laugh*
even the cup is so fat..lol
trust me if u ever study there try them.
you won't regret.
chocolate fondue
looking at this pic is enough to drool me.
gosh i am seriously craving for this.

PLACE 2: College Square Sis's Staying Place
i ended up playing with her christmas hats..
lol....christmas is seriously ultimately grand in melbourne..
every mall you enter you will be entertained with christmas songs..
and every where there would be christmas trees decorated in different ways..
and there are many street performances too from accoustic guitar to some talent performances.

i love my sister so much..

the only way to burn the extra fat u gained is by cam-whoring lol..
a theory scientifically proven by shen.

PLACE 3 : Queen Victoria Market
wow!!!
sausages heaven.
this would be a great place to rob too..
imagine eating different kind of sausages everyday for dinner...
and their market is so clean even the wet section.
forget about malaysia usual morning market.
no stinky smell no wet floor no irrating flies.
all well arranged and closed up...
it was drizzling that morning so i couldn't get a clearer view of the market.
and the victoria market is one of the largest market in south australia.
they have wet dry sections, restaurants and even souvenirs sections.
mum and dad shopped like crazy for souvenirs..
they are indeed a good contributer to australia's economy.
this is the kid stall..
and their toys all are super way colourful..lol
p/s: xiang xiang, lol you should understand my fettish over kid toys. overgrown baby
and some sweet and sour candy..
long long long..
err but according to my mouth, it doesn't taste really nice..kinda of weird.
i remember telling my friends once that pig toys are really hard to be found in malaysia due to tidak halal issues..
but in melbourne, PIGGY is so famous and popular.
yes piglet is hot.
muahahaaa..
you can even spot me in the market.
and my fettish over baby doubled up in melbourne.
come on, white babies are simply so adorable..they have natural rosy cheeks with huge eyes and they don't cry. they smiled back at you. how can you not fall for them?

though in malacca, the bullock carts have extinct.. but in melbourne, horse riding is still a popular tourist attraction..
but the bad part sometimes you can smell horse shit somewhere in the city.

PLACE 4 : Melbourne University
melbourne uni is really old with those british kind of architectures..bricks buliding and beautiful architecture.. and sometimes you can find weird abstarct structure in the middle of the university.

melbourne uni clock tower, a rival to malacca clock tower.
according to sis, this is the favourite place for graduates to take their picture.

mum and dad enjoying every single moment in melbourne.

PLACE 5 : St Kilda Beach
we had our lunch in Grill.
omg..the waiters there is freaking hot.
and i mean it.
one more thing nice about melbourne is the people there especially the shop owners and workers.. they greet u when u enter the shop, they ask you how's the food, they thank you for coming to the shop even you did not buy anything. how courteous is that?
alright malaysians seriously sucks.
st kilda beach is a popular hang out indeed.
flooded with lots of white people compared to melbourne city where you can actually see more asians. believe it or not but that's the reality.

GRILL served super humongous burger........unlike the stingy mcdonald in malaysia where the fish fillet is hardly bigger than your palms.
and they have bird burgers..how cool is that.

melbourne people loves to have pet and all their pets are super cute and adorable from bulldog to hotdog to beagle to whatever dogs...
i just feel like having one of them.

restaurant tram is kind of popular in melbourne well in other words, it is actually some sort like moving restaurant that travels the whole melbourne town.

luna theme park.
the rides there are super scary and open air.
seriously genting theme park has no way to be compared.
and my sis told me that the melbourne dailies always reported that luna park is dangerous.. with lots of death.....
so chickened out shen did not sit anything.
open air ferris wheel...
dare u to sit it.

luna park is crowded with loads of kids more exactly high school kids.....

finally we went to the beach.
omg it is freezing cold...
the sea breeze was unbearable...
and everyone's hair went crazy.
mum and dad.. looking cute with their hoodies.

though it is so cold at the beach, the white can really bear the wind.. by being half naked, sun bathing, swimming, surfing..
omg..are they even humans?

this is real human.
not a rock.
i am repeating this is human,
PLACE 6 : Sis's Graduation
finally sis completed her bachelor of commerce.

looks like commerce is such a popular course.
with so many graduates on that day.

the proud mummy of her daughter.

the cutie pie in my family

happy parents indeed

proffy dad..self upgrade.
PLACE 7 : The Crown, Casino Center
in melbourne as long as you are 18 years above, casino warmlys welcomed you.
we had dinner in THE PUB in the casino center..
with super delicious food and a great sexy atmosphere.
this is kinda like mum and dad's second honeymoon except this time they have two intruders.

sisters.
PLACE 8 : Docklands Harbor Town
docklands is famous for their weird structures and scalptures.
and that place is a shopping heaven.
though not fully developed yet but there is loads of seafood restaurants.
yes i hug a stone.
lol.

while sis was busying choosing her Guess bag, i played with the race hat.
race hat is kind of famous in australia where the ladies will wear those hats to watch the horse race.

shoppin paradise for ladies.
forget about it if you are a guy cause you won't find anything cheap there.
unlike ladies, i actually bought two pairs of shoes for just $20.

the numbers on the floor.
yes you might wonder why i did not see penguins or koalas.. my parents did. they went to philip island while i continued shopping in melbourne. sis told me that it would be more fun to see those stuffs with my friends.
so buddies out there, let's see koalas together next year.
especially you koo shuk kuan, my going to be roommate if both of us studies in same uni.
