i saw a pair of Fiorelli shades at the DFO yesterday but i wasnt sure if i should get it.. but i have a theory.. if time permits, i should have a night's sleep and if i wake up still thinking about it, i will buy it.. and this is what happened with the pair of shades! we went back to get it on the way to Victoria Harbour! Mum got herself a pair too!!! so we wore our cool new shades the whole morning!
captured some interesting clouds..
dont even ask me why.. i have no idea.. but it's cute!
the view's pretty good!
another interesting tram..
after seeing Victoria Harbour, we went back on the tram and moved on to Queen Victoria Market.. there are over a thousand stores selling heaps of stuff.. mostly for tourists, i guess? there are real markets selling fruits, vegetables and meat too..we were not very impressed by it.. maybe because it's just like a huge 'Pasar Malam' for us.. but one little shop took up all of our attention and that is Sohum Cosmetics! there's a Limequat Body Cream that i really really like! but i have too much body moisturiser on hand now.. i'll have to get it another time! Mum got me a Lime Rind Lip Balm instead.. haha.. and she bought more Essential Oil from there!
Question: how many bottles of Essential Oil does a woman need?
Answer: about 10.. and counting..
after Queen Victoria Market, we went to Melbourne Central for lunch.. another 'Chinese' Combo Meal to share, this time from another shop! Geez.. well, when you end up in Melbourne Central for lunch, it cant be just an innocent lunch.. shopping will be INCLUSIVE, right? Yes. so more shopping, more bargains and it's time to get back on the tram..
we got back to the hotel at about 3.40pm to be on time for the mini Skybus to pick us up at 4pm.. took our bags from the storage room and did some packing and went out onto the corner of King St and Burke St (as the Skybus telephone operator lady has told me to) to wait.. at 5mins past 4pm, i gave them some leeway.. at 10mins past 4pm, i saw a mini Skybus drove past us!!! i called up Skybus and guess what??? the operator told me there's no booking registered for Kingsgate Hotel!!! this is so not funny! SKYBUS SUPER SHUTTLE = UNRELIABLE SERVICE!!!
well, would i want to miss my flight? it's ridiculous! people not doing their jobs properly still get paid, isnt it??? people in the service line better pull up their socks because someday, somehow, someone will get to you, get it?!
so Mum and i walked down to Southern Cross Station to catch the Skybus to the Airport.. it was a lucky thing that i booked Kingsgate Hotel as our second accommodation as it was much nearer to the station as compared to the City Centre Budget Hotel..
as we were about to board the bus, i took out our tickets to realise that there was only 1 ticket.. the driver let us on after i told him that i'll search for the second one.. so i dug into all corners of my bag, wallet, pouches and whatever i have got in my bag.. Mum said my bag was messy and i said some harsh words back, which i would like to apologise for now.. Sorry, Mummy..
but after all that search, i realised that it may not be with me afterall!!! Mum actually didnt pass her ticket to me but both of us forgot about it!!! oh gosh!!! i was pretty pissed when she found it in her bag~
anyway, we were on talking terms again by the time we reached T4 because once again, T4's Departure Hall rendered us speechless that it's kind of funny.. and we were in better mood after that..
yup, that's pretty much the whole place.. with a tiny Krispy Kreme store.. Mum was sorry that it was all sold out when we got in because she really wanted to buy some back for Dad and Sis to try! it would be my job next time, i guess..the flight was alright and we were back in ADL at about 8pm and by 9pm we were back at Maylands Manor! i would like to thank my Mum for an all expenses paid holiday! including shopping! no joke~!
