Day Trip 2 - Phillip Island

my second day trip in Melbourne =)
went to Phillip Island to see the little penguinssss <3
this package is including some other attractions before heading to Phillip Island.. =D
the first destination, Maru Wildlife park!
the animals had brought lots of excitement to us~~

the handsome ponyyy.. i love it's furrrr =D

there were too many people at the horses and alpacas spot..
so we choose to go n visit the little kangaroos first!
it's not the first time to c them yet they are still so cuteee!! especially when they are jumping!
aww~ my heart is meltingg XD HAHAHA!

we supposedly not going to buy the food to feed the kangaroos..
but at last.. we bought.. as we saw lots of people feeding.. and the kangaroos are too adorablee!!

but the first time of feeding the kangaroo is super nervous!! 
and I can feel it's saliva.. its teeth.. ><" omg~

but when it started to hold my hand to eat.. I feel it is so adorable..
how could it be so cuteeee.. it's action is totally melted meee!! =')

okay.. a proper with the cute one =)
the little kangaroo just cute~ the huge one is really huge.. ><"
and they look too scaryyy...


look at her.. she's overjoyed! xD
actually both of us were really excited for this trip as the animals are too cute!
we were screaming like nobody business.. HAHAHA!

the greedy kangaroo.. keep looking at the food..

a random video that a kangaroo is scratching it's back..
don't know why.. i keep laughing at it.. XD

after that, we switched to the pony spot again~ 
am deciding whether to feed the pony anot.. as the pony is so aggressive..
it finished the food in seconds.. LOL!!! 
then the white hair uncle comes to me and tell me not to be scared.. just put the palm flat.. and feed the pony.. *I was shocked by the eating speed of the pony* It's really fast.. >< 

so.. here, it's my turn..
I am going to record it down.. and I scare to feed it the second time.. 
So i keep asking Amanda that is she started to record yet.. HAHA! the feeling is so .."AWESOME"!
it's teeth is super stronggggg.. >< omg~

after visiting alpacas.. pony.. etc..
we headed to witness the sheep shearing process..

can't imagine the fur is so hugeee!

the sheep shearing is the last session for the wildlife zoo..
and next we headed to Koala Conservation Centre..

we couldn't touch.. couldn't shout.. couldn't shake the tree..
as all these koalas are under protection.. we need to take them in good condition =)

it's so hard to spot a koala as they all were sleeping on the super tall trees..
and this is the nearest we can get~

spot the lazy koala on the tree? it's really fat yet adorable!

it's so hard to take a real koala photo..
so I take this! the fake one in the conservation center.. HAHAHA!
but it looks real yea~ XD


I found that I fell in love in salted caramel dessert there..
I will order anything which included in salted caramel.. =D 
and they really taste niceee ! =)

and got this super nice peach tea!
less sugar.. and I couldn't find it in Melbourne.. =(

after that we went to The Nobbies to have our dinner~
the magnificent scenery inside the cafe.. I just so fall in love with the place..
nice weather.. and nice scenery.. =)

my seafood platter~

and Amanda's grilled salmon =)

walk around at the seaside.. taking photos..
and the wind is still as strong as before.. ><"

it's so hard to get a proper photo..
and we just can take selfie.. 

luckily there is someone who c us so pity..
and requested to help us to take photo! xD

and this is a timer-photo.. *luckily there is no one passing by that time* 
and we manage to take lot's of pic! LOL!

huge group of seagulls.. a bit scaryyy..><"

and goodbye.. the beautiful Nobbies.
and we were heading to our highlight of the day!

and we finally reached! the tickets that we got =D
super exciteddddd!

have to check under the car before driving~
because all these penguins are wildlife one.. 
they might walk to the road and say "Hi" to you =D

but there is 1 more hour to go to wait for the penguins to back to their home..

they also recorded the penguins which crossed the beach the night before..

while waiting for the time passed, we walking around at the souvenirs shop..
taking photos around..

a lots of cute small penguin toys.. =D

having a look on the penguin museum..
to know more about the penguins.. =)


once we go out from the museum to the beach..
my camera was wrapped by the person in charge.. because no photo is allowed when we stepped outside to the museum.. as our shutter sound or flash light will scare the wild penguins which are under protection.. 

while walking at the pathway.. saw baby penguins which has just born... the fluffy penguin is just so cute..and some small penguins are not going out to hunt food.. so they waited their parents to go home at their place.. how adorable they are! 
*I am wondering if adult penguins need to go out and hunt food everyday, what if the penguin get sick, can it take MC and just rest at home on the day?* LOL! *stupid quest* xD

the only pic we took secretly while we were waiting the penguins to come back to their home!
strong wind and seagulls were attacking us.. and it was so damn cold at that time..

but it's worth to wait for the little penguins to come back home! they were so cute!
they will wait for their members to go back together.. and when they all gathered..
they will walk back to their home together! aww~ so cute to c them to walk in a group~

back to M'sia for almost a month.. I missed the life in Melbourne..
less stress.. less worry.. less burden..
I need to work harder to have another long vacation =)

Catch up with the girls =) Fahrenheit 600 & Mad About Coco

I had been working for two weeks~ and I finally realized how happy when it comes to Friday!
and last week.. I finally managed to catch up with the girls =)
It had been more than half a year since our last meet! 
supposedly we were deciding to meet at Mad about Coco.. but it only served desserts..
and everyone of us were so hungry.. so, we change to Fahrenheit 600° =)

The only group photo of the day =D

the wedges that we had..

the pasta is quite tasty.. =)
this is ah cat's green ribbons..

aunty's pink ribbons =)
surprisingly.. it is good as well.. with a lots of cheese powder~
feel so guilty after having this! xD

mushroom land (9"inches) ! well.. I love the mushrooms.. if they put more mushrooms will be nicerrr!
I love the crispy side =) yummmm~

I forgot it's name.. but this is Fahrenheit 600° 's signature pizza =)
tomato sauce with mozerella cheeseee !
a fattening yet delicious pizza! =D

the rich hot choco~
they served in a cup of hot choco and a cup of cream..

to pour into the cream cup ourselves..
and here it goes.. =)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
after the lunch.. we went straight to Mad about Coco!
to start our second round talk =)

the ice coffee..
attracted by it's description.. as it served in coffee ice cubes and warm skimmed milk~

the coffee is really nice.. love the smell of the coffee =)

say cheese.. ah cat and aunty =)

we just ordered two desserts..
the first one is Mad about Coco..
too much of choices.. and we dunno which to go.. so we chose the signature dessert =)

the presentation for this dessert is awesome.. as when the warm choco pour onto the cake.. 
it will sink.. and the strawberries will come out.. LOL!
it looked a bit disgusting at the end.. HAHA!

well.. it comes to the main devil cake that attracted me the most! 
Innocent Devil Tiramisu

I was craved so badly for Innocent devil tiramisu because I saw lots of people posted the video when the choco pour onto the tiramisu~ It's so tempting!! *the power of social media tool* hahaha!
and here I come with the super evil video! 

but it's not really presentable after pour on the warm choco..
it's just taste so-so.. not as tasty as what I expected..
tiramisu normally will made of some liquor.. but this is not.. mayb it is a Halal business.. 
so, all the food must be Halal? 

the dessert definitely could not finish by one person as it's too much for individual served..
sharing is still alright.. =)
lastly, another photo of four of us =)
cant imagine we had so much stories to share.. and we talked for 7 hours ++
it really feels so good when to meet up with these girls =)
*thanks uncle for the treat at Fahrenheit 600*
*thanks ah van for the treat at Mad about Coco*
I am such blessed as everyone keep treating me..LOL! HAHAHA!

Day Trip - Great Ocean Road.

Oh myyyy....~~ I left not much time in Melbourneee~
57 days in Melbourne. I thought I will have much time to tidy up all my photossss ~
but who knows.. my times are not enough for me to use..LOL!

I gonna share about my day trips in Gread Ocean Road today~
I had signed up for day trips last few weeks.. from ExtraGreen, which is a local travel agency.. 
In fact, I was wanted to book for Phillip Island and Great Ocean Road day trips.. but there is a Chinese-conducted-package which was just AUD138 per person for three tourist spots, which including Phillip Island (AUD72), Great Ocean Road (AUD45* Weekend Special) they charged AUD69 for weekday and Gold Trail (AUD80).. So, I decided to book the three places in a package as it seemed save me lots! =D 

Along the journey to Great Ocean Road, we stopped by few amazing scenery spots, such as 12 Apostles, Loch Ard Gorge and Gibson Steps! The scenery are really awesome! I just can say that nothing can beat the beauty of nature! =D


the first station.. we stopped at Anglesea! 
the day before the trip we were still worrying about the weather as weather forecast (checking weather is a must do homework everyday when you stay in Melbourne as there could be cold in the morning; extremely hot in the afternoon and extremely cold at night! emotional weather in Melbourne) showed there will be cloudy and shower in the afternoon..but when we reached Anglesea, we can see the sky is blue!we were so happy that we got a blue sky for the Great Ocean Road trip as it gonna be a sightseeing trip! we scare bad weather will ruin our trip.. Luckily it didn't disappoint us! =D


and after 2hours + journey from city.. we finally reached the entrance (i think should call it entrance? maybe?) anyway.. we finally see the sign board which written Great Ocean Road! =D

the seaside that beside the entrance of Great Ocean Road! All the bays looked so prettayyy! how good if we could travel there by our own car~ then we can spend more time on these sceneriessss! =)

On the way to Apollo Bay.. the driver is so kind.. put us by the roadside for photosss! it's just 5 mins break.. but still.. our driver is so niceeee ~ =)

Due to the time restrict.. we just had one hour to eat and take pic by the seaside.. So, we did not have time to choose the cafe one by one.. and we had done research on which cafe is nice.. but.. when we reached there.. it was fulled.. and we had to choose another cafe, which is Wickens Delicatessen & Provedore.. We were attracted by its menu~ =) the breakfast menu looks so yumm~ 
we ordered a hot choco.. which is not as sweet as the normal hot choco~ =) and its rich choco taste~ just feel so in love with the hot choco =)

simple yet delicious =)
the mushroom and spinach with tartare sauce with a roasted-bread. 

and this! love the pouched eggs with the bread!

and we did silly action in the restaurant again. we put tripod and selfie on the walkway.. feel so embarrassed, but it's so fun! =D


and we left 10mins to walk to the beach~~ 
and the dark cloud was comingggg~~ and it turned shower~~
so.. here can prove that the weather is emotional in Melbourne.. ><
that morning was still bright blue sky.. when comes to afternoon.. cloudy..

and the worst had come.. when we ran into the bus.. the rain turn heavier..><"
and strong wind keep attacking..><"
when we reach Gibson Steps, the rain still haven't stop.. 
but the tour guide ask us to wait for awhile as he said the rain wont take long.. and gonna stop soon.. =)
and yes, it was not that heavy, but still shower and we ran down to the bus to take few pics.. 
oh my.. the wind was so strong and the sky was so gloomyyy... 
and this is the only pic at Gibson Steps..

After the Gibson Steps.. here we go.. Twelve Apostles! 
finally it turned a bit sunny when we reached there~ fyi, the distance between Gibson Steps and Twelve Apostle is just not more than 5 mins drive.. another prove for emotional Melbourne weather!

yup.. these are the rocks which are famous at Twelve Apostle. 

Am so glad that it turned into blue sky when we were there =)


Helicopter riding also provided at Twelve Apostle, it is AUD90 per person.. 
but, it had been cancelled due to the strong wind.. 
or else we can see the scenery from the sky~ 

Our last station, Loch Ard Gorge.







found this notice here..  bush fire will happen easily during summer~
as their summer can reach 40++ degrees and cause bush fire~
So, becareful when visit to these places during Summer~

and.. end of the trip~
overall trip is quite fun.. the weather is not bad as most of the places were in sunny! =)

Behind the scene!
you might think that why I kept on saying it's strong wind yet my photos all looked so neat? here comes the answer~~~





the wind was really strong and our messy hair keep hitting on our faces.. ><"

video taken at 12 Apostle.. strong wind~~

super strong wind at Loch Ard Gorge.. I cant even hold my camera firmly.. ><"

the upcoming trip.. will b the most exciting trip!
Wildlife trip =D
*will tidy up those photos as soon as possible*
muahaha~
