Annie's visit to melbourne.


Annie visited me last month and we had a ball...
it was fun bringing her around Melbourne.
Showing her around the place that i have been living for nearly 2 years now.

She arrive early on a sunday morning.
Her first experience of Melbourne city is the tram....
haha...she got off the wrong stop.
we went around that afternoon.

Annie and the bronze man of Bourke Swanston intersection.

we had dinner at Ginza, a teppanyaki restaurant near my place.
plus my sis works there too....hehe


my cute little bro...lol

and of course we took a picture with the waitress too...

we went to the Melbourne aquarium the next day



there wasn't as much fish in Melbourne's aquarium but I think it's presentation on the whole is much better than Sydney's.

Wicked: The Musical
All year round Melbourne is host all kinds of event...
Last year Phantom of the opera was here,but I didn't get chance to see it.
So this time I make sure i didn't miss it.
and I pull Annie along too..hehe

Night view of Collin St.



After dinner, we head straight to the theater...

It was pack with people.
Unfortunately we are not allow to take any photos in the theatre.
But who say that will stop us?
hehe....here's a few unofficial photos





you must be wondering what is this musical about.
It tells the story of the stories of the witches of Oz before Dorothy arrive in the land of Oz.
And I would say after watching the whole musical I can't help but amazed by the effort put into the costume, the props, the music and most of all the story itself.
It was so touching in the end that I cried for the 'Wicked' Witch of the West.

all in all it was worth it.

after the musical I show Annie how Melbourne look like at night.
