The trip Down Under Part 1...Queensland

So, we finally got back at 6 plus Monday morning...left Tullamarine at 12.15 am, flew through out the night and landed at 6.15 am. The flight was not good, Boeing 777's are cramped man! But Bh and I, being so unbelievably exhausted, managed to get a few winks.

So, Monday, we were both drained...my doggie was so glad to see me, she whined quite a bit too. Mum said I'd gotten darker and left the obvious fact that I'm chubbier unmentioned. Hehehe..

So here's the run down..will try to upload more pics later, as BH has the whole cd with him at work...Yup, he's back in the office, where else I, have another day to recover. So here's the first installation of what could be a very long series...so much happened,leh.

Lets start with breakfast...Aussie style...

BH did the Vegemite sandwich thing..and will put up the whole experience later. I stuck to my bacon, toast, cereal and hash, which was ordinary but good. The vegemite thing? Euww...I still don't get it. On day 1 post arrival, we went to Movie World..
Yep. We did THAT...the Superman Escape.....what a ride! We start off really fast, go into 4 G's, then plunge into a negative G...wow! walked out dizzy but ecstatic!Batman and Robin...Batman did all the sulking, robin did the taking and smiling...huiyo, so cool! Hmm...I wonder what BH is up to?Hehehehe.

This is Story Bridge, an important landmark in Brisbane. Every time we passed or went over it, Andrew, Bh's cousin would mention it..so, it must be important...hehehehe. After Movie World, we didn't have much time, so Andrew drove us to Brisbane, about an hour away to tour the city.

This was taken from a lookout point, with Brisbane CBD the background.Oh, thats Andrew, BH's cousin who very graciously took us around, everywhere. And that's the Holden Statesman...Aussie's answer to Proton Perdana. The Prime Minister goes around in it. I doubt our PM goes around in his Perdana. But anyway, its was HUGE...loads of leg room in the back, so very,very comfy. Unfortunately, it was also a fuel guzzler..a full tank, which didn't go very far, was about 70 Aussie dollars..Thats the CBD in the background, after sunset.It was about 6 I think.We took this off a hilltop...can't remember the name though..oops.It was cold...hung on to BH to keep me warm...he did a good job..heh.Part of dinner that night...on top, Croc meat. Tasted bland, like chicken, but dry. And the bottom, Skippy...kangaroo meat..tasty that one! BH wanted to bring home some fillets, but there was no way we could do it, without it going bad..More next posting..
