Was bout 4+, we were both tired out after combing the entire shopping area.
Went back to the hotel had a good bath. Rested my tiny legs and the next thing we knew, night has fallen.
Couldn’t follow through our initial plan of visiting Ripley’s museum.
In the end we had dinner at Hard Rock.
As usual the boy had to get his shirt to add on to his Hard Rock collection.
After dinner, we hit the streets.
Given that it was a Saturday.
It was rather happening.
Hip club joints but I wasn’t dressed up appropriately to enter them. Wells...

Day 2
Rise and shine. Breakfast!
My favourite meal of the day.
Eggs, waffleeeee, bacon, croissant, milk, juice, tea...
Awww.. I’m hungry!
After which was the longgggg bus transfer to the Australian Zoo.
The Australian Zoo
The zoo there was but more of an iconic publicity of renowned Steve Irwin.
In comparison I still prefer the zoo experience back in our tiny island.
The Australian Zoo has a lesser variety of animals
although they had more than a handful of Koalas and Kangaroos .
The SHOW.
The animal show featured in the Crocoseum was more of a BORING
educational lesson than an interacting and engaging showcase.
Yours truly dosed off in the midst of the show.
Took pics with the cute & cuddly koala in my arms.
Anddd, everytime there was a change of hands,
the koala will have to release its toxins.
The entire photo taking area was filled with its faeces.
A pity I forgot to snap that down.
The transfer came about an hour late and the entire world was
waiting outside the closed gates of the zoo.
Me... I fell asleep on baby’s shoulders.
The poor boy had to carry the backpack, a load of all my belongings and
bear the weight of my head on his shoulders.
Without moving abit OF COS.
Needless to say, twas because he din wanna disrupt my little nap.
Ripley’s Museum
The museum was rather interesting with all the wax figures.
The most interesting was actually some reflection of Frankenstein.
Ermm, I was afraid to investigate further.
The museum also had 2 fertility figures.
Rumour has it that, whoever touches the figures would get pregnant.
Freaky isn’t it.

Day 3
Breakfast! Waffle wasn’t in the buffet line though. =(
MovieWorld
The experience here was quite fulfilling.
Din have the opportunity to meet all the movie characters though.
The supposedly daily movieworld parade was put off because of the heavy rain.
Needless to say, I was utterly disappointed. Though it was none of the boy’s fault he had to go through the whole chore of pampering me.
When the rain was over, we went for the thrill rides.
Baby was the kind soul who constantly reminded me to hunt for souvenirs.
Oooo.. did I mention, I managed to meet my childhood fantasy. Batman!
____________
Day 4
I din even manage to figure if there was waffle in the buffet spread.
We both woke up late today.
No breakfast!
The alarm was at 730.
It rang we switched it off.
Den I said. Awhile pleaseee awhile.
The next thing that happened was: Baby its 840 already.
I jumped outta bed.
Bathed, freshen up, and changed all in 10 mins.
We were supposed to be in the coach at 900.
Dreamworld
Once again, this theme park has the most thrill rides.
I had a few bumps on the head from the bad posture whilst on a roller coaster.
Tiger Island had it’s tiger show.
They had cubs on display!
Was gawking at the cubs.
2 super ADORABLE cubs.
Baby had to drag me away from them.
Bought bags of candies from the candy shop.
I bought loads and loads of choco whilst baby bought
his all time favourite SOUR sweets which I... detest.
Nightmares.
This was a walk-through maze that assured people of fright-time.
Baby was the lead with some young punks behind us.
We had to walk through this maze that had
strobe lights flashing in the dark all the time.
“Monsters” would approach you and scare the daylights outta you.
Trust me I was screaming my lungs out.
After the enter fright ordeal was over, it made me cherish baby even more.
Melbas
Dinner was at a hip pub/dining joint.
Was quite fascinated by the whole old-school stamp idea I had to take down.
Anywayz, I was more delighted by baby’s steak than my order: chicken.

Day 5 –WAITING DAY.
Had breakfast before hitting the beach.
The whole sensation was fantastic.
Both baby and I couldn’t get enough of the sand, sea and sun.
The entire beautiful setting that we were surrounded in was awesome.
The whole time all was perfect till...
Upon check-out our initial idea of visiting pacific fair was ruined for it was Anzac Day.
All major shopping centres were closed.
There goes our initial plan of: beach, check-out, shopping at pacific fair, transfer to airport at 730.
In the end, stoning was but the most interesting activity.
Ended up visiting Conrad Jupiters Casino.
Once again, I fell asleep whilst playing jackpot.
At the airport
Waiting again.
When the aircraft touched down, I was so relieved that I’m back home!
Finally reached home bout 5+ the whole world at home was awaken by me.
Baby sis gave me a tight hug and I managed to plant a quick peck on her cheek.
(which seldom happens)
Dearest mum n second sis helped me unpack the whole luggage.
I definitely felt loved.
________________
Now upon reminiscing, I kinda missed the times we had there.
Everything was so calm and steady.
Unlike back here where we’re constantly tied up with our individual hectic schedule.
Baby:
I’m so terribly sorry for my overbearing missy-alike tantrums. Thank you for graciously taking in my shortcomings.
I still thought it was quite funny we managed to walk for more than an hour
(risking getting lost) on the last day there.
These spontaneous kick-ass “surprises” certainly spice up the entire relationship at times my love.
Erm, obviously minus the rage at that moment.
Without you, all else fails.
