Melbourne - Ballarat Trip (20 - 25 August 2010)

My friend and I were trying to find a way to get away from our job and so when we saw SQ having promo fair to Melbourne, we grab the chance and set a date to visit our friend. Our friend was so nice to accomodate us and plan for the trip. So all we have to do is to pack and go.

So after months of waiting, the day was finally here.Since our trip involved my little darling, so we decided to take the early flight out and arrived in the evening.

Below are the photos that can tell the story of my short but relaxing trip:

Started the trip with ice-cream. See how the little guy enjoy them.

Day 2 - Shopping at Queen's Victoria Market

Love this shot....Little guy has to nap at Macdonald while waiting for Godmama to return from her shopping trip. Actually I was just showing him the trams on the street.

With the host of our trip at Crown Hotel.

Delicious pasta and pizza. yummy! yummy!

All ready for our treetop walk

The 2 happy families at treetop

All arriving at the highest point

Lunch in the car of sandwiches and salad. Very close to nature.

Part 2 of day 3 - Great Ocean Road...The only group picture we have.

Day 4 - Lake Mountain. This is the 1st time the little guy and I saw snow. Though I didn't ski but I have just enough fun playing snow with the little guy.

See how much the fun they have with the little one? Though it was super tiring pushing him back up the slope.

So while we were having fun with the snow, these 2 were having fun skiing.

After the long day at lake mountain, we had a wonderful teppanyi dinner. The mummy had a hard time getting the little one into the restaurant as he got frightened off by the stunts of the chef. So we had no choice but to request that the chef perform no stunts on our table.

Day 5 - Shopping day at Ballarat City

So while all the ladies are shopping, what is the little one doing? Playing his favourite slide. I guess he were praying that we could spend more time shopping.

Next stop: Ballarat Wildlife Park. The little guy was so excited about feeding the kangaroos that he is still talking about it today. But poor god mama was frightened by the roaming kangaroo as they were cramping around the tight passageway. The sad thing was we couldn't have a photo with the koala bear due to the bad weather.

Home cooked dinner on the last evening. Great fun cooking with my friends.

While waiting for our breakfast that took ages to arrive and also got us almost late for our flight.

Last breakfast in Melbourne.

So sad that our holiday come to an end so quickly. Anyway will be looking forward to Denise trip back to Spore and we have so much plan in stall for her.

Ladies - looking forward to the next trip together, okie? Hopefully there will be new additional members on the next trip...hehe. Denise - you know what I mean right?
