2nd Part of my vacation!

As posted on my previous blog, we went to the wildlife park located in Ballarat town. On the same day too, we headed to Soreveign Hill which is not far fr the wildlife park.
So, wat's in Sovereign Hill?? It was famous because..... it is living museum representing Ballarat discovery of gold long long time ago. In short, it was a gold mining area a few decades ago. Now it is open for tourists and the admission fee is NOT CHEAP.. abt $30++.. Luckily we followed the day tour, everything was included. :)

The whole place was awesome. It was like a very old town and we felt like we were back in the 1850's. Everything was so antique. The have everything in the town including bakeries, pubs, bowling alleys, schools, churches n a whole lot more. Couldn't describe the feeling when i was there. It's just... ermm.. like in the movies... haha..

We notice some of the workers there purposely dressed like how the people in 1850's. Just to entertain the tourists like us. We name them "the olden people"..lol..

Some of the "very old looking products"

"Olden days entertainments"...
Snooker Centre...

Bowling Alley...

Schools... with a teacher there to guide us...

Photography Studio..

Bakery.. and there were breads, cookies and pies sold there.. yum yum..

Look at these 3 musketeers...

And last but not least, the gold mining area.. where the place is famous of..
Look at the massive amount of tourists.. all of them were trying out their luck..

Trying my best to mine for gold too.. if ever i found one... muahahahahaha.. I'LL BE RICH..!!!!
ahh... day dreaming lah..

And of coz, another group picture of us.....

Overall, it was a FUN TRIP... I seriously dont mind to go again if we had another chance. hahaha...

Vacation Time!

My classmates and I decided that we shall go for a day tour during this Easter break. It was a pretty fast decision and all of us made up our mind rather quick for the day tour. Ok, set. We paid $88 for the whole day excluded lunch. We expected it to be above $100 but we manage to get a student package, so it's cheaper! THAT'S THE BENEFIT OF BEING A STUDENT! lol..

So, when everything's settled, what we need to do is to wait for the day to come which was the 7th of April.

On that day, we woke up quite early as we need to meet up at 8.15am at Flinder's St. station. We checked the schedule of the train the day b4 too so we could estimate our times. MANATAU....... We were late. Yumeko, Jeremy and I ran to the train station but b4 we could run there, we already heard the bells where they close the roads for trains. AND we couldn't catch the train we were supposed to. So wat to do, wait for the next train lor. AIKS...
Luckily we made it on time b4 the bus goes off. Phewww.....

Go, go, go......

So, our first destination is to.... Ballarat Wildlife Park...

YAY! Can see kangaroos, koalas.. wombats...

But the journey to Ballarat was so far and tiring. It took us about 1 1/2 hours to reach there..

Finally, we can see the signboard of the park which means we have reached! We quicly walk into the park like those crazy ppl nvr been to wildlife parks b4.. As we walked into the main entrance, the first store we saw was souvenier shop. adui.. i dowan see souveniers....

Meng Jiunn still have time to pose infront of the cam (btw. .. u looked so cute with those bamds on..lol) whereas b4 Jeremy and I could browse wat's inside the shop, we saw KANGAROOS outside the store... Again, we ran there like mad ppl chasing all the kangaroos. muahaha...

There were kangaroos all over the park, and of coz SHITS were everywhere too.... omg...
Look! I'm feeding him.....

I was looking at the kangaroo's pocket where they place their babies, hmm.... but i can't seems to find it.

Through my investigation, there were several types of kangaroos with different characters around the wildlife park. Some were really funny...

Done with the kangaroos and now move on to the KOALAS...

Aww... how adorable... Its fur was so soft and smooth.. Mayb he used pantene shampoo? lol... But he looked kinda fake fr this pic. Like a toy. But its REAL wan ah..

Eee... we were so lucky as we got to see the koalas. Some of my friends who went to wildlife park said they could barely see the koalas as they were placed far far away fr the visitors. And also koalas sleep 20 hours a day, the remainder 4 hours is to entertain visitors like us!

Another cute OZ animal, the wombat...

Aiks, i guess he was just too tired, so fell asleep.. Plus with my warm and gentle hands, sure can sleep well.. hahaha...

Another wombat was awake at that time.. Quickly took a snap shot of it!

And of coz, there were also the reptiles family on the other side of the park.. oh yea, the tasmanian devil was in the pic too.

Poor Rachel, she was so afraid of snakes and dun even dare to step into the reptile house.

Fuhh.. that's abt the wildlife park we've been to.. Sick of seeing animals yet?

Another group photo b4 we leave... :)
