Heading off to Aussie all by myself! It's the first time I'm boarding a plane alone, so it was quite exciting~ Hubby sent me to the airport and we had dinner together before I embark on my journey.
Hubby and I had dinner at Changi Airport Terminal 1.
Vegetarian meal~ That pastry thingy has spinach or some veggie in it.
I was woken up from my 1-hour sleep for this break... was grumpy for being woken up and then I saw the Meiji yogurt, my fav!
Finally I arrived in a drizzling Brisbane alone and went around seeking for breakfast with my 2 haversacks on me... One in front and one behind. Strolled through some foodcourts and there's sandwiches everywhere, but Subway one... more affordable... so Subway it is... keke~
Then I strolled around alone with my luggages on me, and went around phototaking before I meet up with my cousin and her family.
Lunch was 'cheap' pasta from another foodcourt. I can mix and match the different pasta which were all precooked and displayed at the counter, like our mixed vege rice stall. The pasta and water set meal cost me A$8.50.
While strolling towards the meeting place, I went around phototaking again.
Finally I met the lovely couple and their baby who was 3-month-old then. Cousin-in-law bought latte for me and onwards to their place where I'll be spending time together with them for the next 4 days =)
Upon arrival to my cousin's place, cousin showed me to the guest room prepared for me. Woohoo~!! My bedroom suite comes with a personal gym facility! XD I love the bed, better than hotels! This feel like a resort!! So in love~♥
I'll be here from 24th November 2011 to 27th November 2011, flying off in the early morning of 28th.
We bought Mac along the way at a nearby drive-thru... tea time!
Taadaa~ A super awesome homecooked meal by the lovely couple... thank you guys!!
Another close up shot... I had veggies, egg and soup.
And then it's chill time!
Day 2 rise and shine! I woke up really late actually, despite crying baby and chirping birds (their pets) =P And breakfast was already ready on the table~
I opened their very well organized pantry cabinet and made myself a cuppa coffee ^^
My breakfast! Hot coffee and vegetarian pie!! Yums~
My cousin-in-law's cooking lunch today!
What a big slab of tofu!
And lunch is tofu and salmon with soup.
Mine is just rice with tofu ^^
While cousin and her hubby had salmon too!
In the afternoon, I joined cousin-in-law to bring their two doggies to the vet.
Love the blue blue sky along the way ^^
And back at my cousin's place for tea break! Yummy scone! So yummy that I had a second one (chocolate one!) and kinda overate during tea break! XD And for a while we were crazy over GeoDefense Swarm! Cousin-in-law and I playing, me on his iPad and he on cousin's!
Dinner was soup and noodles. ^^ Guess which one is mine? (I know, too easy. No prize for guessing right!)
My hearty dinner~ ^^ I'm really grateful for my cousin and cousin-in-law for being such accomodating hosts! ♥
Day 3 rise and shine! My breakfast~
My lovely hosts brought me to the Fo Guang Shan in Brisbane. We went to an asian market before this and bought some a dozen packets of beehoon as offerings to the temple.
We bought lunch from a Chinese food eatery on the way back~ A standard packet is rice with 3 veggies and 1 meat, costing A$9.30, while mine with 4 veggie dishes (eggs with tomatos counted as veggie dish, yay!) cost A$8.
The little baby sleeping peacefully on her daddy's comfy shoulder~
Sweet, yummy and crunchy apples!
We bought dinner at Hungry Jack's drive-thru.
"Vegie" whooper for me!
Whooping huge vegie whooper!!
Cousin-in-law's whooper is super whooping huge!
Here's my huge whopper in my hand... *chomps*
Day 4 rise and shine! My cousin made coffee and toasted bread for me... I'm so pampered!
The lovely hosts brought me to the picturesque Wivenhoe Dam.
And then to a quaint little town Esk for lunch. Love the beautiful Australian sky :)
Here we are! Wow, look at that slope ahead of us!!
We're at an eating place called "Sticky Fingers". Here's my super creamy and thick iced coffee~
Cousin-in-law had curry rice.
My cousin had fish and chips.
My vegetarian breakfast set... wait!! I realized they served the wrong dish, I thought I ordered a mushroom and salad meal... how come become vegetarian breakfast set?! Nevermind... it's still good, in fact super yums! ^^
Back at my cousin's place for my last homecooked meal in Brisbane. Helped a bit in preparing the veggies~
It's dinner time!
Yummy dinner prepared by cousin-in-law!! :D My cousin is so lucky to marry such a nice guy! Last meal with my lovely hosts... Missing the lovely couple a lot!!! ♥
Yummy fruits!!
And then hours later, I left Brisbane for Sydney...
