Met up with shumei, ee fung & her room-mate today at Queen Vic. I ate this nice almond croissant =) got introduced to this shop in the mkt that sells reasonably-priced pastries.. hahaz shall try their other pastries some other time.. we sat at this alley with chairs & tables in the open & chatted for the whole morning. Melbourne’s lifestyle is definitely more café-like & laid-back. Moreover, the retail shops close at ard 5pm or so. Cafes & eateries are almost everywhere & think the local food there is more of the Italian style.. there r also food from many other countries there..& also this famous Vietnamese restaurant that I’ve been wanting to try.. no matter what think that they r all delicious! =D hahaz
Went to Lygon st yesterday nite sometime after dinner with a few of IHers to eat Gelato! Italian ice-cream! Gosh.. it’s my 2nd time in a week to eat Gelato.. ate it the 1st time after going to Queen Vic’s night mkt – Suzuki on wed. definitely gonna gain lots of calories shall go exercise soon. :P Feels like I’ve been having so many meals, teas & junk food etc. ever since coming here =P we walked all the way to and fro from IH to Lygon & came back only ard 1hr 45min later! (didn’t stop by to rest & eat though) It’s really a long walk =P which kind of help to burn the calories?!
Hahaz after that shumei & I went to explore the Asian supermkt somewhere in chinatown & headed down to Yarra River’s Sunday Mkt as suggested by them. Saw a long line of fish floats on the river which are for the Commonwealth games. They each had a different country flag beside it hahaz but didn’t see S’pore’s! guess it’s somewhere down the long river but will come again someday when the floats are lighted up to find it =D we passed by Federation sq & there's this screen on the building & we're in it! took photo of it for fun.. hahaz can identify us? there r a few others takin photo of themselves on the screen too =P
Finally, we head down to Ikea which was rather out of the way from the city. The sh
opping center that it’s in reminds me of IMM.. hahaz maybe coz of the high ceilings & spacious interior? there’s K-mart there & it’s having a 25% sale! bought a pillow, a quilt & fleece jacket. Hee preparing for winter already =P we somehow had the feeling that we’re back in S'pore when shopping ard in Ikea. hahaz oh yar & they sell hotdogs there too. Tried them but not as nice.. prefer those sold at S’pore Ikea or maybe I’m not used to it. Realised that I’ve explored quite a no. of streets in Melbourne already hahaz & did quite lots of shopping!! either in the city or Bridge rd & Smith st where there are factory outlets of various sports brands & good bargain buys in many boutiques. Wonder where my next destination or venture will be at ~ ['',] ~
