aussie aussie aussie,
after being for over a week in australia.
I LIKE AUSTRALIA. You know how people love to say, "Oh,Melbourne is boring,australia got nothing interesting". That's just not their taste, you know what I mean? Melbourne is a rather laid back area, holiday for a chillout time. And on my recent visit, it was winter. It's nice. It's cold, clean, dry, and we don't get tired easily unlike here, mate!
So, I left during the daytime,wondering what would I do for over 8 hours during the flight. Thank AirAsiaX, they rent out these little touch-screen thingies that works like an iPad,but focusing on entertainment. So I watched these 2 movies, but with rather horrid stereo.
Alice in Wonderland and Clash of the Titans
And so before the sun set completely, I managed to capture these rather intriguing images to say the least.
As I was watching Clash of the Titans, I fell asleep. And woke up to only find my first glimpse of land! It was like a breath of fresh air! Australia looked kinda like this.
Can't see much aye? Me too :)
My ma & I landed at about 11.30pm. To save on money, and time, we just stayed overnight @ the hotel. Immigration took us quite sometime, the luggage carousel was SLOW, so we got to the arrival hall like half past 12am. The first thing we did, was to find MCDONALD'S. everybody's lovin it! I had their "Mighty Angus" burger, which is REALLY NICE. As in NICE. It's as huge as a burger from Carl's Jr. and to make it yummier, additional

yes,bacon
With a sweet side of this HUGE BLUEBERRY MUFFIN.

ok, it doesn't look too big here. but i promise you the muffin was HUGE.
And so, we waited/slept on the benches in the terminal for about 2 hours, waiting for the bus-ride to the Southern Cross Station, which is like the KL Central station of Melbourne. The station is HUGE,well compared to Malaysia's of course it is. They have over 12 tracks, with individual trains, connecting rides from 1 end of Melbourne to the other. I can't really find a full picture of the station online, so hopefully you all can go see & experience it yourself.
Being sick of the HOT HOT HOT Malaysian weather, it was about 8 degrees celcius when we arrived. Really cold,especially when the wind blows. And to wonder how we "tahan" the cold, most of the Aussie women just wore some tube top, and freaking shorts. @.@ The guys, could just wear a t-shirt & jeans. in 8 degrees? I wore a t-shirt with an inch of my jacket & I still felt cold. We then met up with my sister, who lives very very south & very very near to the beach, FRANKSTON. It was an hour train ride just from Southern Cross to Frankston.
