Greetings from Phillip Island Australia! Tonight we saw wild penguins in their natural habitat returning to their homes at nightfall. Tonight's first batch of penguins were first sighted on shore at 6.19PM, when the sky is completely dark. Yeah. 6PM is totally dark over here. Feels like 8PM back in Singapore.
Arrived at Melbourne
Yeah! We've finally arrived in Melbourne. It was a 12hr ride with Greyhound and now we are kinda stuck in Southern Cross station, Melbourne as we have no plans yet for the day. The free city tram doesn't operate until 10am so now we are just kicking back, reviewing the maps and start planning for the day.
U know what? It's so hard to find a place with free wireless in Australia!! We will be updating the post logs when we are settled down and find a Mac or come back to Southern Cross station to update our Sydney trip. Right now, just pin Melbourne on your map! Weee!

Greetings from on board the world famous Manly ferry! It's a public ferry service from central Sydney Circular Quay Wharf to Manly where we are presently staying! He scene is exhilarating and amazing on board. But too cold and windy for the average person to stand. Just ask Serene who was kept indoors on board the ferry throughout the whole 30 minutes journey whereas I braved the cold winds and took some shots not easily taken anywhere else on land. Goodbye as the ferry is reaching in 10 minutes !

Here's a picture of us at the Royal Botanical Gardens in Sydney! That was Day 2! We walkd all the way from Jolly Swagman at King Cross to the Botanical Gardens then to Sydney Habour! OMG! That was a lot of walking and by the end of the day, we were totally beat but the walk was all worth it. We've seen a lot of different infrastructures, buildings and interesting architecture. For dinner, we ate at a Taiwan restaurant which specializes in tea infused cuisine and it was superb! The portion was big and it ust taste simply fantastic! It's located somewhere near Chinatown so you should totally go try! I'll find out the name of the restaurant when I patron it again!
