The Story of Mine: April 2009

Virgin Blue B737-700 took-off runway 21 at 18:15 (Perth local time) and start cruising at 40000 ft. Here was, my trip to Melbourne started at that moment. 3 hours and 15 minutes later, we landed safely in Melbourne airport. By that time, it was 23:00 in night (Melbourne local time).

But nope, we cant straight away go check-in, coz me and Lai still gonna wait another four guys, for about 2 hours in airport. Then we 6 person broke the traffic rules for going to hotel with only one taxi, HaHa... :)

This called "Choc Hits"

the aircraft.

After few hours of sleep, we started to explore the beautiful-ness of Melbourne City -- the most livable city in the world. No wonder to use too much of our time in sleeping, juz a few hours of sleeping, its enough of us, perhaps.

Just in the first day, we went most of the tourist attraction in the city. Hah you can make it too as long as you have a map in you hand as well know how to get to the trams (named as City Circle) it take passenger to most of the exciting part in city.

With other 20 passenger on board, we travel 2 hours west to Lorne, followed by Kennett River, Appollo Bay, Lavers Hill, Twelve Apostles and Loch Ard Gorge, all the way along Great Ocean Road. Don’t ask me how is the place, I even don’t know where I am when I arrived a destination, but I only know the last two destination, because there are one of the most fascinating places I had been!
