VSvacay- Australia Day 2 - Adelaide

Better update quick before I forget the details... brain not functioning properly due to weird sleeping routine...this is soooo bad...

So on our 2nd day we started our morning with a roadtrip to Hahndorf~
A small little German town in the suburbs just about an hour away from the CBD of Adelaide =)

 a winery there

 went there for our breakkie
 tadaa~ bee sting...and somebody tried to conned me into believing that actual bees stung the cake to create its moonlike surface ==

 very cozy interior of the cafe
 look at all the antiques~
bee sting up close 
i like the caramelized top but then its texture feels more like bread than cake and of course to top it off, the buttercream in the middle must not be forgotten! 
it was a nice dessert but we should've shared...couldn't finish it myself as it got "jelat" after a few bites... 

 an edge of Hahndorf
 so cute right? =)
 went to the strawberry farm nearby..too bad it wasn't fruiting season...=( no strawberries to pluck
 all kinds of sauces and condiments
 spoilt with choices!
 us being silly with the signboard
after goofing around for awhile, we drove up to mt lofty
one of the signature symbol of adelaide

 ignore my fishball face =(
super love this picture....makes me feel emotionally free 

didn't spend a lot of time there since we need to get to cleland wildlife park before it closes at 5pm....
everything closes early in all angmohs land 

 a rat-like mammal~ they were challenging who can hold the whole thing up and in the end only me did it..i think it's because I am damn rough LOLLL lack of feminine instinct  =(
 with lil cute koala~ past experience with koalas wasn't pleasing as that particular koala pooped on me =(
 so many greedy ducks and birds..followed us in armies as they were sprinkling food around
 this kangaroo is sho cute =)
isn't it adorbs! 

 wombats~ looks like a wild boar
after visiting the whole wildlife park, we went back to hahndorf for dinner! was looking forward for that since I haven't tried any really good german food before

 warmt ~~~ was so cold that day
 all the german beers
superb german platter! the pork were so juicy om nomms 

well what to do after dinner in angmoh country? 
don't need me to elaborate so clearly right? hahaha
it was a fun night la but then had to wake up quite early the next day....was quite a hard chore =P

VSvacay- Australia Day 1 - Adelaide

Why VSvacay?  nothing to do with Victoria's Secret LOL 
coz it's Venice+Shann's vacation! hahaha... sounds cliche but legit wad =) 
better start blogging earlier before i start my 9 to 6 job =( 
Well, basically we've spent the first night on the plane which wasn't a very pleasant ride since being a very considerate person *chuckle* I never adjust my seats coz i hate it when the person in front of me does it... so yea... *己所不欲勿施于人* maa 
the seat was uncomfortably upright and stiff.... 7 hours of pure torture 
landed in adelaide early in the morning~ like finally I can leave that compacted cage of lost freedom 
 Thanks to Anthony for picking us up from the airport and Aaron for the ride =) 
first pic of Adelaide and they were like why are you guys taking pictures of the ugliest part of Adelaide LOL 

 sorry for this blurry pic, was supposed to have brunch here but too bad it was closed that day =( 
 on the way to the alternate makan spot 

 we're here~~~ such a cute place! located just next to a train track..choo chooo! 


can malaysia have places like that? =) pretty pleaseeee 

 my super green juice! much refreshing after my nonexistent sleep last night  
my brunch~ some kind of chocolate french toast + rhubarb 
it was nice but not something that I would reorder again 

 walking around the city after brunch 

 library at uni.adelaide shhhhh... 
 acting all intellectual huh? 
 forgotten how nice is it to be in such campus since Nottingham, UK =( 
 so even adelaide joined the bandwagon of the love lock bridge? 
 river torrens~ love this pic! 
strolling along rundle mall~ 


 remember the first triumph into the skies? they're always drinking at this belgium place 
 first cafe stop~! 
 my first chai latte in my life LOL...suaku lar i know 
 enjoying my chai =P 

quickly went for the next cafe~ exchange 
 remember not to call the steel godness of mercy LOL it's just tit gun yam hahahaha 


love this candid shot =) 

 took the tram to beautiful glenelg beach~ 

 hahahahhaha 
sooo goddamn cold! 

after walking around the beach, letting chills go down my spine, trying to focus on the view instead of my freezing hands, we've finally left and went for dinner LOL 
had amazing chinese food! 
don't remember why I didn't take a single pic of that place 
tried kangaroo meat and crocodile meat for the first time and it was surprisingly good! 
definitely recommended! 

as if the meal wasm't full enough, we went for desserts right after dinner! #fatdie 


 I plead guilty! food coma diagnosed =P it was awesome!!!! 


our first night in Adelaide ended with a beautiful walk around the city~ and of coz the movie 百年好合 XD 
自从在峨眉山中见到你~~~~  

P/s: UK has officially killed my cold tolerance 2 years ago TT i'd used to be able to walk around in the cold in short sleeves but now...omg....i can't stand the cold at all!
