Melbourne 2014

You were looking forward to our 12-day Melbourne Trip (22 Nov to 3 Dec) because you learned that there are Target stores in Australia where you could get your "skylanders"! As you have grown and understand the joy of holiday, you were counting down to the trip. We went with Ah Mah and papa - we traveled to several places with Ah Mah and this is an opportunity for mummy to spend time with you and Ah Mah which I don't get to during working days.

First stop - Philip Island, where we went for penguin parade, view koala bears, farms....great experience for you.

Next we went to Mornington Peninsula strawberry farm. This is your first time visiting a strawberry farm and tasting strawberry.


We started our Great Ocean Road drive the next day. Considering the number of hours spent in the car, you were considered well behaved. 


Thereafter, we drove to Grampians. You started to get impatient with the sightseeing. Luckily we managed to stop by a town before we drove to Grampians, that is where you visited the first Target store. With the toy you wanted, you were a happy boy again. The apartment which we stayed at Grampians has Kangaroos around the common areas outside our unit during evening time. Great experience.
