🌏 琪“澳”旅途 : ⛅ Great Ocean Road Self Drive 大洋路自驾游 + St Kilda beach 🐧

这是我抵达墨尔本的第一个项目

大洋路自驾游！

我们三个人租了一辆车

浩浩荡荡的大洋路自驾游去！！

我觉得如果去大洋路的话，

一定要记得自驾游。。以下就是大洋路的景点图

原因一 :想停哪里就哪里

大洋路这一路上很多美丽的风景可以让你停留

原因二: against tourist buses traffics

时间自由，你不需要和旅巴的搭客抢 photo spot

原因三: 想逗留多久就多久

有些风景，景点需要细细品味。。马虎不得

The Great Ocean Memorial Archway

过了这里以后，你的大洋路之旅正式开始

🌏 Melbourne Tour Reviews (Philips Island, Bathing Boxes, Moonlit Sanctuary) 🐧🐨

Woo hoo!! 
Highlights of my Melbourne Trip!
Philips Island , Brighton Beach Bathing Boxes & Moonlit Sanctuary!

We've booked a tour package via KLook.com

i'm glad that we've made the right choice with Go West Tours Victoria

Our tour started with a warm welcomed from Scott to us.
Scott was our tour guide, he is humorous , attentive & caring !

Brighton Beach Bathing Boxes was our first stop!
Scott explained clearly on the history of the bathing box
which are informative as we walked along the beach
to admire the beauty of the"little houses"!

Me with the "houses"

🌏 琪“澳”旅途 : Gastronomy Tour 🍔 🍜 🍹

okay .. finally the foodie post!

in this post here , i'm going to share with you on 

some of the foods that i've tried during my trip! 

The Hardware Societe @ Hareware St. food reviews

The Hardware Societe is a french pastries cafe
the restaurant is always packed with customers and please expect a long Q outside of the restaurant.

look at the long Q!

and the menu

me with the coffee

dishes for three of us!

Baked Eggs TROIS 
(scallops , cauliflower puree & leek)

i must give credit to the cauliflower puree, it was so smooth or creamy
till i've forgotten that it was a cauliflower puree instead of mashed potatoes !
Of course cauliflower puree is less fattening if compare to potatoes (carbo)!
grilled scallops blend in well with my cauliflower puree (butter and pepper)
as you can see from the photo!

🌏 琪“澳”旅途 : Getting around Melbourne CBD Part2

Continue from previous post

延续上一个 post,
今天我们再来继续我的 琪“澳"旅途！

Sealife Melbourne Aquarium

其实呢，我真心觉得 Singapore 的 SEA Aquarium 是我的世界之最！
毕竟，我还没有踏足Dubai 也～
在这之前，我一直在犹豫去还是不去。。
去的理由，有King Penguin & Gentoo Penguin 叻！！
王中之王！！

最后，我还是去了，因为去得这天刚好
下大雨。。

 我就这样在Sealife 呆了两个小时，
和企鹅相处了接近　３０　分钟，
它都不下水游泳给我看。。
说句实话，坐在这里的３０分钟，真心觉得自己很坏，　
里面的它们因为我这样的旅客没有自由，
居住环境欠佳～　sigh　

🌏 琪“澳”旅途 : Getting around world's most liveable city Melbourne via Free Tram 🚇

如题，首先恭喜墨尔本 Melbourne 拿下了连续 7 年的 no. 1！
World's most liveable city for 7th consecutive year!

再来，恭喜我自己一个人 “澳” 游了整个 Melbourne CBD
完成了我的 Solo Travel 的小小心愿。。。
下一站，我要更大胆一点！要真真正正的一个人去冒险！

这一次旅行，我并没有拍很多的照片，
但却实实在在的用眼睛记下了自己的足迹。。

如果你正在计划着一个人的旅行，相信我Melbourne 很适合你。

  购买 data plan  
在机场买了 10 days , AUD 20 (Rm68) 的 sim card , 2 GB internet (daily)

这个很重要哦，this is for the usage of google map & Tram Tracker apps

真心觉得这个价位 (AUD 20) 比起很多的 portable wifi 便宜了许多。
在马来西亚有些 Portable Wifi provider 打着无限上网的头衔，却收取高昂的收费，像：Rm28  per day , 10 days 就 Rm280  了。。
Rm 280 vs Rm 68 , which do you take ?
所以，记得要 spend SMART & play Smart!

MyKi Card 须知 & Melbourne Tram system guide
理解他们tram system 非常重要，一开始，拿着那个map，
我简直要疯了。。
什么叫 free tram zone? 然后不用打卡就上车？这样好吗？
好多问号哦。。。

好了，首先，我建议你去 Flinders Street Railway station 开始你的免费City Tour，
车上还有讲解与介绍
这个 Flinders Street station 是 inside the free tram zone.

然后搭乘 No. 35 for the free City Circle Tram ,
搭搭古老的电车 since 1889 , 吹吹风，
坐在 Made in Melbourne for Melbourne 的电车跟这个city 大喊 Hello!
