Australia Day

It's Australia day today. It's a public holiday. Having spending some days here, well, what do I like about Australia or Melbourne to be specific?

1. Great parks in the city. There's a park just outside my hotel and office. People BBQ in the park on a weekday evening, people jogs during lunch, people sunbath on the grass, people walks their cute dogs. Love it.

2. Different weather in a day. Extremely cold morning, sunny afternoon, showers in the evening...I love walking on a cloudy day as it's not hot and sunny.

3. Grocery shopping! There's so many variety of stuff to see that we can't get in Malaysia.

4. Queen Vic market. Many things to see, many things to buy. Great place to get some good snacks

5. Great sandwiches. I love them!

6. Uncomplicated roads. Wherever you walk, you'll be able to find your way. It's all in a rectangle.

7. Yummy coffee...Coffee is a big thing here. Every turns and corners, you'll be able to get a cuppa for the chilly day.

8. The Great Ocean Road. The beautiful scenery is etched in my mind forever.

9. Old infrastructure amidst modern buildings.

10. And I finally get to see a koala....awake and active. Do you know koalas sleep up to 20 hours a day?
