3rd day in Melbourne

(1) Hello Everyone ! sorry so long didnt blog ... but anyway, i'm back and i shall continue telling u about m third day in Melbourne ...

on the third day, we took on a Day tour to the Great Ocean Road ! Is actually a road along the south australia coast la ... very near Antartica ... so the waves are especially bigger and especially windy ! super nice ...

one of the highlights of the whole trip is seeing the ocean next to us ad we drive along the coast ... the picture above is the MAIN highlight of the trip ... its called the "12 Apostles" ... its actually the straight straight rocks you see standing out in the ocean ... last time got 12 but then a few fell oredi so leaving behind around 8 - 9 of them i think ... he he he ... the view was SPECTACULAR ! it was just breathe taking !!! it was such a wonderful experience just standing at the edge of the clift looking out into the ocean to the left and right ! awesome ... its just something i dun see everyday ... and this might even be the first the last time i see the 12 apostles anyways ...

we actually sat on a double decker bus along this tour ! so syok ... quite a lot of ppl la so we didnt manage to get the top floor seats lor ... but nvm la ... it was better sitting down anyway cause can see the driver talk and talk and explain stuff over the microphone as the ppl on top have no view of the tour guide BUT they do get the top view of everything ! damn it ...

(2) Next highlight is the Loch Ard Gorge ... since this coast is very stormy, a lot of ships were sunked to the bottom of the sea last time la ... but then got this 2 people who manage to survive this particulat wreakage lor ... so since then, this place is famaous because of them ... however, i rather think that it is famous now because of the BEAUTIFUL BEACH and the wonderful rock formation along side it ! man ! i really tell you ... its DAMN beacutiful wei ! so happy i get to see it at least once in my life time ...

(3) Next highlight is the 'London Bridge' ...this is where some Europian Sailors came to and saw this rock formation and it reminded them of London Bridge and they named it that lor ... it used to be a connected to the left hand side of the land like a bridge but it fell into the ocean quite a long time ago so this is all remains of the London Bridge ! Nice right ... its another breathe taking view from up the clifts ... come to think of it, ALL OF THEM also breathe taking wan la .. until can Asthma lah ... If i can i will wanna do another Great Ocean Road Trip but drive myself ! he he he ...

WAH ! this picture super big ... crazy ... anyways, this is part of the food we ate along the journey ... it suppose to be an Australian Food through and through .. the two metal kettle u see on top contains this drink called "Billy Tea" ... some australian tea la ... and then the white white thing u see is called Lamington ... its a type of Kuih-muih ... its a chocolate sponge cake with strawberry jam in the middle and the outside is coated with Santan ! YEAH ! super nice ... but very 'zai' ... this is part ofthe tour la ...

along the way we past by small small town and very nice places lor ... its like a place where there's Mountain, river and sea all in one place ! syok right ! its like Heaven in one place all together ...

and we also stop along clifts where we can look out into the oceas froma higher view ... super nice lor the place ... plus it was super windy and super cold ! when i look out, its like i'm literally looking out into the edge of the world cause memang its at the end of the map ma ! ha ha ha ..

the whole journey was just really worth it la ...plus we get to see wild Koalas in their natural environment along the way and get to eat Fish and Chip in a town somewhere along the way and get to walk along the beach ... take some really awesome pictures for memory ... and spending time with FRENS !!!! he he he ... at then end of the day, i was so damn tired ... bath ! and then sleep ..

the only picture i didnt take is you know what ? the place we stayed ! The Melbourne International Back Packer ! of all the places i should take i forgot to take a picture of my room ... actually got a reason behind it wan ! ha ha ha ... cause Lizard was saying that when the lift door open right, we should first let it finish open so that *gulp* GHOST can come out first ... weird right ? at first i dun believe wan but then the condition of the backpackers place made me will think of such things wan lor ... so when i wanna take a picture of the room, i suddenly thought of the idea that the picture i take will have 'something' inside so i didnt take ... wanted to take when we check out but then forget liao ! so like that lor ...

Yeah ! let me introduce another member of the Moo Family ... His name is London ! I adopted him at the Victoria Market for $12 only ... but then i didnt have a name for him ... at the Great Ocean Road, i took him out and let him see the London Bridge so i named him after it lor ! Say hi to London ! i love London a lot ... he's so darn cute ... and cuddley ... he he he ...

well ... this is the third day ... tomoro (hopefully) will be the fourth day ... am looking forward to the end of Holidays ... i feel useless staying at home doing nothing but eat finish my grocery ... its like during holidays, the grocery will finish faster wan lor ... weird ...

anyways, ciao people ... bye bye ...

PS* i love london very very much ...
