Last day at Brissy & First day at Melb
went to Westend for brunch... planned to back "Chan Chi Ming's place" but we missed the breakfast session... oh, my blood pudding='(
changed to brunch at another place and one more coffee at "Cup"...
say goodbye to them, say goodbye to Brissy.. i'll be back~~
had the meal at the plane while thinking of how's their dinner at Heng's place... i missed it...
picked up my baggage... how come i found my Sanxian with other baggage together while they told me i should get it back from a special counter...
while i picked it up, it's seems abnormal.... i opened it and checked, damn it!!! the neck had been broken......
i went to the counter and asked for help... they told me i should call Qantas for that... either repair it or get a new one.... but as a Chinese musical instrument.... i don't think i can repair it here.... and this is not a really expensive one, repair it is actually wasting $$... what the best method is to buy a new one and given the receipt and claim for it... it takes time, u know.... I WANT TO GO BUSKING!!!!!!!!!
whatever.... i took the skybus and got to Melb city... a lady asked me if i'm a tourist and where i'm going to... she told me YHA is just a few blocks, yea, from the map it is... but she recommended me to take a tram and shown me which tram i should take....
but after i got on the tram, and asked other passenger if i should get off there... they told me i actually got a wrong tram.... huh?!
i got off the tram and tried to find the right one... failed to do so...
i wanted to get a taxi, but the taxi driver seems don't understand where i'm going to... i given up...
i asked ppl where's Flinder street, they pointed and told me at the end of the street.... okay... by walk then... but after Flinder street, i actually still needed to walk thru Spencer street.... i asked another two men, and they seems going there too... i was too brave to go there with them. but finally i got there....
there's another Chinese gal, Chi Hung from BJ as my roomate... but 4 shared room as a result only 2 ppl shared for the first day...
the bed is so comfy...
at the next day, i chatted with Chi Hung. she shared her breakfast with me... i asked where would she spent her Sunday... she told me her ex-colleague invited her to church, but she's actually not a christian... i begged her to bring me there XD
we took the train to Boxhill... Sunday saver ticket is juz 3.XX bucks for whole day, great!!
Boxhill is a chinese ppl area, seems so many chinese food can be found.... her frd treated us, we enjoyed a shallot pancake and sour chilli soup.... the shallot pancakes were so nice!
they asked me to join the Mandarin with english translation service while is for youth and they attended the adult mandarin service....
for me, i prefer the English morning service since either Mandarin or English are not my mother tongue, i think english one's atmosphere would be better.... the Mandarin with english translation service is for teenage, i think i'm too old... but the mandarin service are mainly mid-age adult... juz no age between like me....
but let's see if there's another church near my place later.
Chi Hung prepared the dinner and shared with me... with Red Wine, cool! we chatted with the old man whose from UK but borned at Aussie. he's a retired civil servant... he had interest on how's the different for HK after the retured at 1997... franky say, i love UK governors... they fed me while i was growing up since my dad was cilvil servant too... i love Chris Patten=)
okay, stop say too much, ppl would know how old i am XD...
but good chatted with this old man....
i chatted with my another roomate too... she's from Swissland... a student but in working holiday... need to back to school soon but her bf would cont' his WH trip.... they would be in distance, she said she sad abt that...
i enjoy to chat with ppl in different nations... ha, so i should stay more at backpacker hostel?!
