Today we set out to go to Victoria Market. Went out a bit late at about ten-ish, and reach Victoria market at about 10:30am
Victoria market is sort of like Petaling street except that it sells everything here including vegetable and fruits.
I bought seedless grapes for myself to eat… so cheap… a bunch only 90 cents
The toilet here seems to have time itself
After that we set out our journey to Melbourne University. Along the way we asked for directions and a kind Australian gave us the correct directions… so friendly!
The first building itself looks so magnificent.
MECHANICAL ENGINEERING!!!!
nice shades…
i like their union house, they have so many things inside like food, pool tables….
After that we wanted to go to Carlston place but there’s a International flower exhibition which is held until tomorrow. Therefore, cannot even go near the building… the place is sealed from the gates…
then we manage to take up the city tram and head to the city. It’s almost lunch time, so we decided to try HUNGRY JACKS!
didn’t know what to order, but just ordered a set meal
ops i forgotten to take picture before i eat… well look at the bite that i took, it’s not done on purpose that it looks small, the bigger is actually BIG! Some of you who knows how I eat burger, I eat very quickly, but after eating this burger, I feel so full that I can hardly move an inch…
a cinema in melbourne…
Then we went to the State library
the state library was just so magnificent!
nah, this was just for exhibition… hehe
After that we went to QV which was just next to the state library.
There wasn’t much for us to see there, there are shops and food but we weren’t very hungry, after that we head over to Parliament building to meet with Irwan, and we went to St. Patrick’s Cathedral.
This is my first time going to a Cathedral and my, it is the most amazing I have ever seen…
Well, as you can see, I am not wearing my jacket because it is getting warmer…
I have never been to a Cathedral and never imagine how it’s like. This is the first time and I’m really amazed!
After that we head to Fitzroy Garden which is just behind the Cathedral. On the way we met with the park ranger which is kind and let us have a map of the park. He also gave us a better map of Melbourne city which have includes the public transport as well.
We reach to the first attraction in Fitzroy garden which is the Dolphin Fountain….
sadly, there wasn’t much water. Looks very dry to me.
After that we went to another fountain that is called River God Fountain
Still very dry as well. It seems that there is insufficient water in Melbourne now and they are using the recycled water for the fountains.
After that, since there is not much water in the entire park, it’s pointless to go see other fountains as well. So we went for dinner to eat MCD at the Crowns.
The portion is as big as ever. The angus burger is really nice. These are the things that Malaysia sure cannot find. I really can’t move after eating because I was so full. We waited awhile then for the fire show…
I can’t take much pictures, cause it’s either too dark or when the fire comes up, the picture is over exposed and it’s only in a span of few seconds…
thats all for the 4th day! Stay tune next for great exciting adventure on the 5th day!
