6th day in Melbourne and Happy New Year!

Today's the 1st of Jan 2010. Happy new year to everyone~~! Saw some fireworks with Rachel from Shuyan's room last night and stayed in because it was raining. Today's weather in Melbourne is cooling and nice. Great day to go out and have fun. I'll take more pictures and post it up here.

Meanwhile, these are some pictures that I've taken the past few days:'

We've been walking a lot these days and this picture was taken after we left Victoria Market ( it was closed )

We saw some cool stuff on the way. This is a ticket booth for cars parked along that road. Unlike Singapore, Melbourne uses this system where you pay for your parking after alighting from your car. In a way, you can't cheat the time you've been parked there and it saves trees too! And the 2nd picture shows you how much you've to pay for parking! Category 1 handicaps don't have to pay for parking.. i guess it's for those on wheelchairs and stuff..

This is a brothel that we walked past. It's just along the streets and a very glamorous place as of what I've heard from my friend.

This is like a Sports complex we have in Singapore. There's a swimming pool and other sports facilities inside. Looks like a train station to me.. haha nothing like a sports complex!

We then went to the park to take a look at the dogs there. There were lots of dogs there and the owners will just unleash them and let them run around without their leash. The dogs are very well trained and will not run away! I also want to have such a dog/s. The flowers there were blooming nicely and they're very colourful. Though they're being planted there, just like how it is in Singapore, the colours are brighter.

We also saw these funky animals. They're very loving! We brought bread to feed them and they will transport the food back to their babies hiding in the tall grassy area in the 2nd picture. We manage to see some babies upclose but didn't manage to get pictures of them. They small little animals with a little bald patch on the top of their head.

So far the stay in Australia has been pleasant. Hope to see more interesting things so that I can take more pictures of it =)
