Easter Break: Adelaide- Melbourne

I just realised I still have many events to blog about.

Left Adelaide on Wednesday, and landed in Melbourne 20 minutes early. Ty wouldn't be called TY if he's ever on time. He was late, as usual, but still, THANK YOU for picking me up! =)

Walked around the University of Melbourne. I find visiting universities a pleasure, haha. 

Harry Potter...


Their newly refurbished library (only the bottom 2 floors).

The upper floors, hahah!

-------------------------------------

Went to Pie in the Sky at Olinda (some mountain) for pies! TY drove!

Met up with Justin and Jeng Shiun in the city. Had dinner at Lygon, then Jeng Shiun's GF, Hazel, joined us for Crown Casino!
The casino was along the Yarra River.

The Yarra River at night.

Jessy met us there at the Casino. I still find it really amusing how most people, especially TY, likes to call me a kid/brat when I wasn't asked to show my ID at the casino. Instead, TY was asked to prove his age, HAHA. KID! I WIN =P

Hazel, Jeng, TY, Justin, me. Didn't have any pics of Jessy in my cam, and she hasn't sent me the photos yet!

 -------------------------------------

Spent the day in the city. Had breakfast with Jessy and TY at Federation Square, then she had to leave us for her class. TY and I walked along the Yarra River.
St. Paul's Cathedral


He enjoys taking ugly pictures of me.


Went to the State Library and guess what we found? A museum with some iconic figures of whom I not know of.

 ME:

3.

4.

TY:

Visited the museum after that with Justin, then took the tram down to St. Kilda and the Luna Park!

Luna Park was a MAJOR disappointment!!!!!!!! Waste of time, waste of money, and my anticipation for it! The rides were lousy, nothing fascinating about any of the games, lousy prizes, EXPENSIVE fares.


After dinner, we headed back to the city, Justin, TY, and I walked to Dorklands (their "Darling Harbour"), heheheh!!!

----------------------------------------

Day 4
Woke up really early for our day trip at Mornington. Mr. TY drove all three of us, Justin, Jessy, and I =) How nice to be driven around... I miss my car =(

Anyways,

Pilot: Mr. TY Chin
Co-pilot: Mr. Justin Wan

Parasites: Miss Jessy Ng & Seeki Ong

Stopped by and took some pictures at some cliff, don't know the name of the place.

Again, TY took the ugliest picture of me.
"Jessy, come!! Take with me!"

The dudes & I.

Look at Justin's smile when I look retarded.

Then, a beach.

Lunch time!!! We had lunch at T'Gallant, which was famous for their wines and Italian food, I think, haha.

Headed to Sunny Ridge to pluck some strawberries. It rained the day before, so the ground was muddy and dirty. The 3 smart ones asked me to pose at the field, as if I was really searching and plucking the starwberries, haha.

"Where oh where?"

"Oh, here you are!"

"TADA!!!"

Ashcombe Maze, Shoreham.

Guess who?

Rose Garden.

 Lavender Maze.

The guys made me do ridiculous things!
But I was game enough for it, yo!

That's all for Melbourne.

Back to a Sydney post next. I made a new friend, and discovered new places =)

Hey, look! I'm not the only one to take "artistic" pictures of you. I was in the photo so can't be me!

seeki said...

wheyLeon said...

TY!DRIVING???? NOOOOOOO

that is just not TY!

LOL

TY said...

Me neither, Whey Leon. I like being a passenger. It is not that I don't trust Seeki's driving, just that I didn't trust the speed cameras.
