These 3 people were there to greet us, so cool!
And we went into the place to rent car and we made our first friend! His name was popo *crossfingers*
The temperature in melbourne was just right or even hotter than I thought it would be. rephrase = not as cold as I thought it would be -.- so I was pushing the trolley and SWEATING! zomg, shocking isn't it?
I just realised that houses in melbourne dont have gate, means their house inside the security inside must be very high, who knows you go in and get shot or something!? hahaha.
Our first stop was this place like fun dazzle to celebrate jared's friend's birthday. If I was 10years younger I would have definitely enjoyed myself here. big & long slides = epic fun for young kids.
After a long ride to the resort, we finally made it! (duh) It's called the silverwater resort and its damn BIG. It's the nicest of the few hotels/resorts we went to. On one of the days we played table tennis, air hockey and pool there too!
The rooms are very nice too :)
On the 2nd day morning we went to a chocolate factory and it was damn cool. They are special for making chocolate bananas in white, dark and milk chocolate flavour, all are very nice!
there was a viewing place where you can see them making the chocolate stuff LIVE! here are chocolate houses, so cool! (:
The next stop was this farm place thingy. So me, jon, liang jie and jon's parents went in the same car . and on our way we were listening to one of melbourne's top radio stations, FM101.1 or something. They were playing the song "the man who can't be moved" by The script. (off topic : They play the same songs everyday, so -.- . .)
Suddenly these group of ducks came and block our car. They never move for 20secs! haha. so coincidental lah, the song was at the "So I'm not moving... I'm not moving..." part. we were all LOL-ing so hard at that point of time, you can just imagine the ducks doing an MV to the song :D
Okay, we got to the farmhouse thingy place and before we went to see the animals, there was this souvenir shop. I found so many cool toys and dolls and this HEADLESS DOG!
Okay into the farm. There were many animals like peacocks, cows, cow shit -flies, parrot, etc.
Got one that looks like a squirrel but I forgot what it is. haha
Year of the goat
sad sophie (sophie's the horse's name)
melbourne hills chiwawa? O.O
not-so-ugly duck&lings
Apparently the animals like my bro. haha
relieving our childhood..... (:
We went for go-kart! btw this 'go-kart' that we were driving were not like those noob ones at downtown east. they can drive up to 60km/h. My score was okay lah, could have done alot better if I didn't slack the first 2laps and let everyone overtake me. Sigh, how kind of me :) Uncle Linus (Jon's dad) was speeding all the way and got a very score. Jon and my sis crashed into each other and later I sped and swerved onto the grass and turn turn turn. (dizzy ~_~).
Next stop is this place called "Amaze&things" (read it out loud fast). There were things to do there like mini golf, some huge maze, many optical illusions. To add on to the fun there were many mini games and a HUGE slide. Its like 'L' shape and its a steep drop followed by a long vertical slide down (Correct me if the word is horizontal , I keep mixing them up..), we took turns and screamed! Imagine a roller coaster turning upside down, thats what its like xD
See the illusion :)
wahahahahah..
Some cool cow on our way back to the resort. Very outstanding indeed.
Me, jon & uncle linus stayed up to watch manutd vs (insert team) and arsenal vs chelsea. Actually I was the only person awake to watch the arsenal match,ahahaha.. arsenal won 2-1, which was Good, thank god :)
On the next day (3rd or 4th day le, wooohhooo), the highlight was that we went for penguin watching! At around 745pm (sgp 4.45pm), we gathered near the beach and waited till 9pm or so for the penguins to arrive, they were so cute but sadly no photography was allowed. The male penguins would go out in the day to search for food (I guess) and come back at night back to their same burrows to feed their mate and their kids (if they have any). They will then switch places with their partner (if any) and they will take care of the kids and burrow till the next day.
We left phillip island for Apollo bay, went to feed some fishes to the pelicans and NOOBseagulls. They are noob because they act smart when trying to catch the fish and then when the wind blows they can barely fly! Its like them with or without wings, wont make a difference.
took a ferry to the other side. can park car inside, so cool
here is uncle linus taking a photo of me taking a photo of the ferry before we went in -
shaky ferryyyy
Argh~~~~~spongebob! patchy the pirate hahaha..
Hangliding! was another highlight just that this one wasn't that fun as we expected, can blame the wind for it, cos it just died at the wrong time lol. waste our money..
Back to hotel, playing boulderdash (some BULLSHIT game, seriously). took two character pieces and TADAHHHH~ MSN! "`LIANGZHI. has just signed in" // lol
The top of a lighthouse..
