Crabs. Yummlicious stuff.
Tried the famous white pepper crab at no signboard.
Quite good.
But at 40 per kg.
I would probably think twice before going again.
That being said, i would still love to try other crabs there.

Some of my favourite pictures from melbourne:

Thursday, June 25, 2009

If i put up the pictures one by one, i think i'll go mad. Made them into collages so it's easier to view. And applause please coz i manage to put them up within 1 mth of my return! =p

Day 1

Reached melbourne around 8am. Dropped luggage at hotel and grabbed breakfast at pancake parlour. I tell you, the pancakes were fantastic. Slurps. Also went st kilda's to check out the beach plus arts and crafts market. Lunch at crown's and dinner that night was at papa ginos on lygon st. We had to walk all the way fm our hotel to lygon st coz of some demo the students had and trams were not able to pass. But it was all worth it! Nearly froze my fingers off coz was so cold but desperate to eat my gelato ice cream while walking back after dinner. Lol.

Day 2

Booked day trip for dandenong ranges, yarra valley and puffing billy. The wineries were so beautiful. My face even turn red after drinking the different wines they had for us to try! Reached our hotel at almost 6 and dinner was at crown's automatic. Their cakes were huge and we had to take away the remaining food coz we ordered main courses and sides as well. Lesson learnt!

Day 3

The next day, day trip was to great ocean road. The sceneries were breathtaking especially at 12 apostles. We took a helicopter ride there as well which cost us aud 140 i think. Halfway there, my camera died on me! Darn! Fortunately my trusty nokia phone was there to help. Haha.

Day 4-7

Food!

Last day trip was to philips island. Heard it's very windy there and was pretty worried coz i'm terrified of the cold. It must be my lucky day coz our tour guide said weather was pretty mild that day. Phew. Took some really good pictures there as a result. =)

So many things to do but some days we were so lazy that we went back in the middle of the day to our hotel room to nap. Seriously who does that? Lol.

The rest of the days were spent shopping at bridge rd, brunwick st, DFO, swanston st and queen victoria market. We spent our nights at crown casino. Gambling.

I went a little crazy buying chocolates back. And shopping too. I didn't expect to have much shopping done coz it was winter but i was pleasantly surprised! To top it off, i love love love the cold weather there!

Hubs, when can we go back again?

Tuesday, June 23, 2009

I'm getting ideas again. Luckily i manage to convince dear hubs to go for another trip.
Barely though.

Would like to visit sydney and gold coast but with the swine flu and all, it's considered a high risk area. Right now i'm swaying towards japan.

Getting hubs to check if his company has any qualms first.

Being wanting to try the ice cream gallery at river valley since last week. Had their rum and raisin, chocolate and durian flavour. Their rum and raisin is the best i had ever tried. Shiok!

We stopped at maxwell food centre to see which stalls were opened. Bought fried sweet potato dumplings and banana fritters to try. Pretty good! And i queued at Tian tian hainanese chicken rice after seeing a long queue. Typical s'porean mah.

I'm happy to report that 'm a fan. Will definately be going back for more.

I'm so tired i can barely walk straight.
I have not slept since yesterday morning i woke up to go to work.
Exhausted.
And i went to work today as well.
Heard me roar.
But it's all worth it.
I acomplished a major turning point in my 'mahjong career' last night.
Kum kum or.

Why does time pass so fast when you are on a holiday? Shucks one blink and have to report to work tomorrow.

I got this feeling in the pit of my stomach that i overspent.
Uh oh.


There's a girl named RENE who is a glutton. Who eats anything she can get her hands on. She can't get enough of mahjong. Same goes for shopping. She loves to cuddle in bed with a book and a mug of hot chocolate. She loves trying out new food and interesting places. She has got a dose of wanderlust in her. She is ME.
