Melbourne 13th April 2005

Happy 28th Birthday, Darling....

Yesterday after the proposal, we went for a romantic dinner @ the SouthBank area. That was also celebrating Nelvyn's birthday as well.... Itz his 28th birthday and 2 more years, he will be crossing the 30 years old mark.... He's getting quite depressed over it. So shhh.......

Before meeting Auntie Betty @ 3pm to head over to Janet's farm in Foster, we popped out to the GPO, General Post Offce - Melbourne, which was converted to a upmarket shopping arcade. You can find all the classy and branded boutiques there.

It's just like walking into a grand palace and we are the Prince and Princess, waiting to be dolled up and ready for the Grand Ball.

@ about 3pm, we headed over the Flinder's Street Station and met up with Aunty Betty. She looked strong and happy to see us too... From there, we took a cab to the Spencer Street Bus Station and waited for the bus to Foster.

After travelling in the "Comfortable" coach for about 3 hours from Melbourne to Foster, we have finally arrived @ a small town, with a Post Office and a few other shops cum restaurants.

There I saw a familiar face, leaning beside a car and smiling at us. Janet was already waiting for us for a long time. Apparently, the coach took a longer route and arrived way after time.

We hopped on the vehicle and made our way to Janet's and Robert's farm. Along the way, we had worbats racing alongside our car and wallabies jumping in front of our car. Hence, we took 20 mins before arriving @ the farm.

Upon arrival, we were famished and couldn't wait to have dinner. We had baked chicken and greens with brown bread. Thatz the best!!! After dinner, we are served hot tea in front of the fire place, all warmed and wrapped up with our favourite book in hand.
