Australian Masters

Hee...went for the Australian Masters on both Friday 13th Nov and Sunday 15th Nov. Why both days you asked...although highly unlikely, Friday was in case Tiger misses cut and Sunday is for when Tiger wins, which he did...heeeee....was quite excited even though i wasnt expecting much but i was really quite surprised at how much i like watching it 'live'. The greens were like carpet...soft and well...green....and the weather was much cooler than expected. You could just feel the excitement and anticipation in the air. It was brilliant. My only complain...wayyyyyyy too much walking..sheesh...walk walk walk ...walk walk walk...wished they allowed buggies...(singaporean ma...have to find something to complain about)....

Here's Adam Scott(erm..the one in the foreground, of course)... ~cute


and TIGER ~GRrrrrrrrrrr ....the way he walks...really...like someone who knows what he is doing....

Pictures from The Rocks

These were written behind each pics.

love
The depth of unconditional love is infinite. It takes a delicate blend of both the yin and yang energies in order to reach perfect balance and harmony. It is an act of pure selflessness and giving. Through love, there is strength, joy and purpose.


love flight 2
Love can lift one's spirits. It is in the giving of love that the journey together is an ongoing adventure of laughter and joy. It is the nurturing of this essence that new life is created.


4 eva love
only when the heart is touched by true love can it be reflected as love without attachment, for only unconditional love can last past eternity. the little person within ones heart will always act in accordance to what is righteous. what is truth. so when we succumb to darkness there is always hope. this hope is found through the strength of the heart.


heeeeee..they have the 4 seasons ones, which i liked as well.... www.studiooat.com.au

Sydney - 2nd Nov

Final day of our Sydney trip before we head back to Melbourne. Went to the zoo today. I really liked the zoo. It's not as huge and did not have as many animals as the Singapore Zoo but I think it's a combination of factors that made the trip really lovely. Firstly, the weather was just perfect. Secondly, the way to get to the zoo was different(ferry then cable car was the route we chose). Last but not least, the backdrop. This is the stage where we watched the bird show..it's just so pretty...the sea..the blue skies...


and this is Jayden while we were watching the bird show


Lunch at the zoo was the usual crappy tourisy stuff....but dinner was fantastic. We had dinner at Musashi Dining Bar, which was just 15 mins walk from our apartment. Good price too!! Ordered the Agedashi Tofu, Baby Snapper Simmered with Soy & Mirin and Grilled, Wagyu Beef Yakiniku,

Sashimi Platter


BBQ Calamari


and green tea shake(YUMMM)...all for the price of $130.00...heee....not too pricey for a Jap restaurant....and apart from the tofu (which was a major disappointment), the dinner was just YUM.

After dinner, we headed for the harbor for the last time....

Sydney - 1st Nov

Met up with friends on the second day. Yum Cha in the morn in this restaurant called Zilver. Loads of people so booking is essential. Not bad except that when we ordered 2 bowls of porridge, the staff recommended that we took one large bowl instead....big mistake...her one bowl is HUGE...after consuming the porridge...that's about it...hahahaha...

Went to The Rocks market after that. LURVEEEEEEEEE going to markets where they sell handmade crafts....bought a couple of pics to hang up...it's a series of 3 pics....shall elaborate in my later post...heee....where was I...oh yeah...we had a "little snack" from this place called La Renaissance...heee..the cakes were nice


but I reckon the stars were the ham and cheese croissant


and the jasmine with white choc ganache macaroon...YUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM


oh...and dinner was at this korean place...which was abit weird....since I ordered bulgogi..expecting something on hotplate..instead it was a soupy thing which wasnt really nice..hahahaha..and therefore no pics...

Sydney - 31st Oct

Went to Sydney for the Melbourne Cup holidays(and to get away from the Melbourne heat).
This is J playing Daytona while we were waiting for our flight...


We checked into Meriton Apartments on Pitt Street. Was pleasantly surprised at the place. Got a 2 bedroom apartment on the 39th floor(although G floor was actually on the 11th). Nice little kitchen with SMEG appliances...one ensuite bedroom..the other had 2 singles...really clean and cosy...and best of all great location...Woolworths and Kinokuniya was just round the corner.

Walked to Chinatown for dinner at Menya Noodle Bar.
Had the Menya Ramen


the Ramen in garlic broth(FANTASTIC although not recommended if you do not have half a dozen mints with you)


mini gyu don(really good for small eaters, snack or for lil kid like JAYDEEEEEE)


and spicy chicken wings which was alright.
