Adelaide Part 3

Paid a visit to brother's new working office before heading off to our destination for the day

Brother and his working space

~ ~ ~

Thereafter we head off to Victor Harbour

Don't ask me why does it show Granite Island, i have no idea

~ ~ ~

Were supposed to head back to Adelaide after Victor Harbour

But brother's friend called to ask us to detour to Hindmarsh Island to see whether there are any crabbing area around

To disappointment, the crabs there are mainly sand crabs, not suitable to be cooked or eaten

~ ~ ~

Then we went back up to Adelaide and joined brother's friends for dinner

That was my Day 3 in Adelaide =)

Adelaide Part 2

Off we went to Adelaide Zoo to see Wang Wang and Funi

Wondering who's Wang Wang and Funi?

They are the two giant pandas in which Adelaide Zoo has been entrusted the care with

Adelaide Zoo wasn't part of our itinerary in the first place

But for Wang Wang and Funi being the only giant pandas in the Southern Hemisphere

There we went

This is Funi, and how does Wang Wang look? They are the same, so let's save on his picture.

This is a group picture of all of us in the zoo, all of them are brother's friends

~ ~ ~

After dinner, brother brought me to Victoria Square


Brother said the Christmas tree that they put up had been the same every year

This is the picture parents took of the Christmas tree a few years back

Few years now it's still the same Christmas tree =)

The huge Santa's Mail Box

And this was my Day 2 in Adelaide, simple and nice =D

Adelaide Part 1

A getaway from Melbourne all the way to Adelaide to spend a week with second brother

It was a fruitful week and i enjoyed those time spent together with brother

I hope he enjoyed too, of course except his wallet part. =P

And of course lots of gratitude

Because despite of the scorching hot weather on days

Brother still brought me to places of attraction every day

Thank you =D

~ ~ ~

Glenelg Beach - Spell it forward or backward, it still spelled the same

~ ~ ~

Highlight of the day - University of Adelaide

Wow, their building are all so Harry Potter feel, i like i like

And brother was my photographer because almost every building i wanted a picture

Especially those places where i remembered parents and brother had pictures together during brother's graduation ^_^

Some of the snapshots

This is their library, see how grand is that compared to Monash

Another side of the library building

River by the end of the university

Pathway to exit the university

That was my Day 1 in Adelaide ending with steamboat for dinner with brother's friends

=)

Welcoming Christmas =)

Last 2 working days of Year 2009

Line wasn't as busy as it always should be

And most importantly,

Everyone is starting to be in a holidaying mood

Which explains all of our playfulness while working =)

Grandma, Woon, me and Rachael

Me and Grandma, the one who's always concern about all of our well-being

Me and Woon, the "ice-cold" girl, but it's proven wrong by us =P

~ ~ ~

Day 2 - Last working day of Rachael
Grandma, Woon, Rachael and me

Rachael, me and Woon

Woon, Boss and Rachael - See how good the three of them "coordinate" with each other =D

Me and Rachael helping to advertise Australia Post products =P

Rachael's farewell gift from Toan, 2009 Australia Post Stamps Yearbook

Last but not least, of course our boss being our Santa Claus =D

~ ~ ~

Wish everyone a Merry Christmas

And may your Christmas be as merry as mine...

*smiles*

=)

I cut my hair =)

So i still can't wait for the few more weeks before i go back Malaysia to cut

The curling in the picture is just temporary

Now after my shower, my hair became wavey back

But my front is short again

After very long Rachael only realised

"Ehh, this is Wai Chien!"

Cause that was how my hair was when i first reached Melbourne

=)

This is a more obvious picture that Rachael cut her hair as well

Since both Woon and Jia Han also asked the same question

"You cut you hair also?"

Had a good shopping session with Rachael today *hugs*

Girls' Shopping as usual

=D
