Cheryl was so awesome to come on this trip with me across the country to the eastern states. She gave us (me) all a fright when she forgot to bring her passport to the airport. Thankfully, you can check in to domestic flights with any other photo ID.

We were in Melbourne for 4 days and it was FREEZING COLD!!!! We went to Queen Victoria Market, Brunswick street (vintage/retro/opshop stuff), Lygon street (italian street with lots of restaurants and cafes), Bridge road (factory outlet shopts), the casino, walked around the town and took the trams, got Krispy Kreme and headed off to Sydney!!!

In Sydney, we stayed at a backpackers and met two girls from Sweden, a girl from Belgium and a girl from Adelaide. Most significant part of the trip was SKYDIVING

Finally, a dream come true! Something I’ve always wanted to do! Falling from 14,000 ft for one minute

and gliding with the parachute for the last five minutes. it was SOOO AWESOME!!!!

we made a British friend and brought her to the fresh fish market.

the oysters were SOOO FRESH!!!!

and we had fresh sashimi and unagi, prawns and scallops… yumm

the days in Sydney was spent going around the city and beaches

the sydney opera house

sydney harbour bridge

Beautiful sunset view behind the sydney harbour bridge as we took the ferry back from manly beach. Perfect Timing

This Lindt Ice Chocolate is SOOOOO heavenly. a definite must try for anyone who’s in sydney

Sydney’s weather was so good, 28-30 degrees. So sunny and nice

After a week’s holiday, cheryl and I returned back to home sweet home with Krispy Kreme and Lindt chocolates for the Perth people

Yet… my welcome present was a bigger “room”

They moved my bed into the toilet!!!

Here’s the MASTERMIND!!!!

But it’s good to be back! =)

Ahhh… time to get down to the mountain of work/assignments/presentations/test that i have due this week. pfft!
