Melbourne escapades :D

Better late than never... Here goes my Melbourne escapades. :D

March11

Around 11:20PM, our flight arrived earlier than scheduled (fly PAL now). Mum and I waited for our sundo, Auntie Pat and her sundo team. haha! Welcome to Melbourne! It was a good ride going to Auntie’s place. I just washed up, changed into my jimmies and went straight to dreamland.

fly PAL!!! early landing :)

Technically,it was my first day in Melbourne. I breathed all the Melbourne air I can get into my lungs. haha! Auntie’s friend, Auntie Marilou was so kind to drive us around the city. We went to St. Kilda beach. I didn’t know we were heading there so I missed flaunting my bikini . I enjoyed the sand, the serenity of the place and got a chance to do my “retreat” there. After our beach trip, we went to Fitzroy Garden and had picnic afterwards. Finally, we walked and took a free tram around the city before heading to our last destination for the day… Crowne Casino! OMG! The lady guard had to ask for my passport to be sure I was legal to enter. bummer! On the bright side, she said I was a pretty lady. haha!

Friday the 13th! Second for this year. They said bad things happen this day. I don’t really believe it. But that day got me thinking. First, I forgot my bag in Auntie Faye’s place. It was the only thing I had and I totally forgot about it! We went back for it. Anyway, while Ate Suchie and I were waiting for mum and Auntie Pat, it started to rain with the sun so bright. Result, my lovely rainbow! Also, Auntie bought me a top. yippie! The cream of the crap… nyahaha! We locked ourselves out! We had to climb the gate, break a window for that! Dahil ako ang maliit, ako ang pumasok sa bintana para buksan ang bahay! ayayay! So we decided not to go out anymore. On the boobtube, Zac Efron was in Melbourne to promote 17 again! He was so near yet so far away! I didn’t know he was in town! I should’ve asked someone to drive me to where he was! HOT, HOT, HOT! I will steal him from Vanessa. LOL

Hola Rainbow! :)

Before Breaking IN :))

March14

My relatives’ friends threw them a despedida party. My cousin and I went ahead, Auntie Belen’s son, Karl drove us there. I did things I never did before. Okay, not never but rarely do I do those things. I cooked (prito lang naman! pero andami nun ha!), washed dishes ( never did that in someone else’s place) and be friendly to hell! Usually, I am reserved but I had to interact ‘coz I was the only kid (sort of) and mum was having a mahjong session! We got there 1pm and left at 5:30am the next day! Susme! reto galore ang mga “aunties” ko doon. nyay!

March15

I woke up just in time for lunch. It was actually the first day I woke up late! The window was replaced. After lunch, Auntie Marilou and Auntie Rose took us to the zoo. Nandoon naman na daw ako, dapat makakita raw ako ng kangaroo! It was really nice of them to take us there. I really enjoyed that trip.

kangarooooooo!!! yes doing the deed! :S

my aswesome aunties :)

Last day in Melbourne. Took lots of photos for memories. We went for last minute shopping and packed our things. Super duper mega overweight. Gusto yata ni Auntie iuwi ang Melbourne! haha! Well, we got lucky.

last minute shopping :)

Oh yeah! Before I forget, people down there thought I was twelve! As in ten plus two! I'm like ten plus ten! hahaha! Aussies were surprised that I'm graduating from Uni (university obviously) 'coz I look like a kiddo to them. Meron pa ngang humihirit na ten lang daw ako! One stranger said I'm lucky 'coz when I'm 50, I'll probably look like I'm 30. true. haha!

I just CAN'T stand the accent! Galey! Effort ang intindihin sila. Sort of British pero hindi. Basta ganun. I had to strain my ears to get what they were saying! whew!

That was my Melbourne escapades for you. :D It was actually bitin. Oh well. Let me grab this opportunity to thank the people that made my Melbourne trip supertacular! :D I know they won't be able to read this but what the heck?! Auntie Pat and ate Suchie for being such great hosts, really making me feel at home at home. gets? ;P

THANK YOU!!! :)

To all my "Aunties" Belen, Marilou, Rose, Gloria, Faye and the rest of the Pinoy community there for embracing us with open arms. I'll see you soon. :D Of course, to my wonderful mother who was the culprit behind this trip! :D Hurray to you and our travelling privilege. Lastly, to God for providing. :D I LOVE AUSTRALIA! :D
