    @pinoykiwi_inOZ to be honest hindi ko pa natitikman yung vegemite dahil nung andyan ako nanghinayang ako kasi may presyo din pala sya..

    yung peanut butter na lang binili kong palaman sa tinapay, para sure ako na makakain ko hehehehe...

    Next time pag may work na, lagi nang may vegemite... LOL :P

    nagpapalit ng AUD sa money changer sa tullamarine international airport, tapos paglabas ng airport kumuha ng taxi papunta sa southbank langham hotel. Habang nagkwentuhan may konting "white fog" na lumalabas sa bibig kasi winter, not sure ano twag dun. then tambay2 sa southbank kasi 12:00 pa check-in. sobrang lamig kumain muna ng friedrice asian food sa southbank. buti nalang nilibre na ung wifi at mahal din naman ung per day charging nila, di ako masyado nagenjoy sa melba restaurant nila siguro sa price, dapat dun nalang kami kumain sa bandang mga bourke st madami pa dun mas maayos hehe, nagenjoy ako sa muffins/ cupcake sa 7/11 fed square tapos makukulit ung mga seagulls nagtutulakan para sa food lols
