Melbourne LAST DAY


before I knew it it was my last day in melb!
my oldest cousin jacinth was also set to leave for bali that night
gonna miss her so much!
we had to spend our last night without her =(

anyways we had a nice simple chilled day
we went to get the famous melbourne hotdogs
which were really awesome!
they had heaps of interesting differnt flavours!

after that we chilled at a cafe and headed to Chaple street to window shop
ended the day back in the city to eat at szechuan house once again

and the food was doubly yumyy
I also saw tt they sold F cup cookies in a store in melb!
was so tempted to get!

Melbourne Day 5


The first 4 days in melbourne the weather was TERRIBLE
if you know melb the weather is CRAZY
and it was like mad cold and raining when its ment to be SPRING right now

thank god on our 5th day we had nice weather
so we decided to take a drive to yara valley

is kinda like perth's swan valley
mainly wine tasting
which YAY im finally able to do LEGALLY
I feel hell posh and sofisticated doing it

but we also did quite a few fun stuff along the way
mainly it was just a day with nice weather and family getting away from the busy city life


the cousins in the vineyards


nice view





after 2 wine tasting spots it was time to break for lunch at Bella vedere


very nice place with a big garden where the chef can hand pick his vegetables n herbs!







yum yum lunch time! I feel that I have to confess that I tried eating rabbit
it tasted really good! and I've always avoided eating it
but I gave it a try this time
tho I would not advise eating it often
but I guess once in a while wont do too much harm?

after that we headed to chandon to try some nice sparking white wines
the desert wines are the best because its soo sweet

cam whoreing outside


after that we bought a bottle and sat around in the sun sipping it and eating muscles

after that we headed to punt road!
where they are famous for there CIDERS
I LOVE CIDERS
its kinda like beer but not so bitter and gross
here they have APPLE and PEAR cider
the pear was the yummiest
after we had enough of alcohol we decided to pay the diary a visit


then we ventured into this nature reserve thing next to a big water dam

waterfall!





after the long day away from civilisation
we headed back into melb city for dinner
we went to ANTZ BISTRO
in melb;s china town for some chinese food

and it was really YUM
it had really interesting dishes and the cabbage rice thing was really goood
and scrambled egg whites

ooh and dragon buns too!

and after discount this jacket is still $200
but she sold it to me at a special one off price of $150 =)

let me first say, from what Jamie and Leticia have been saying about melb driving
how everyone gives way and is hell nice and patient and shit
the driving here in the city esp is CRAZY
wtf is up with the trams and all the rules for over taking trams
and hook turns
and omgg madness
but that god we finally made it there!
the italian food was GREAT
the specilise in pizzas and it is really really really satisying
its not too oily and filling
very light and tasty
That night was like the best dinner ever!
we sipped our win, slowly ate our pizzas and desserts
chat with the super nice italian waiter
and contemplated life LOLOL
* an inside cousin joke
the pizzas were super fancy, we had mushroom TRUFFLE piza and WAGU beef pizza
both awesome and pricy delicacies on pizzas with a very reasonable price


I LOVE TRUFFLES
