Hey from Brisbane!!

I know I haven't updated in days but...Hehehehe!! I've been busy....:p

Let's see...where to start? The day I got off the plane!! :D

After I met Yuennie, I was immediately brought out on a walk(bit of an understatement but, hey!)...... :D We crossed the Goodview Bridge into the city and walked on George Street to Queen Street...but not before I paid a short visit to the office to say, "Hi!!" Heheheh!!

After that meeting, we moved on and went to see the sights...COOL!! Well...literally....LoLz! After some shopping...heheh! We went back soon though cos it got dark at FIVE!! Uwahahhh!! I thought it was EIGHT!! LoLz! I guess I hadn't adjusted to the time difference yet...Hmmm...

Anyways, the next morning, we went to the West End market which is really nice! It's an open air market, kinda like Pasar Malam, cos it sells veggies and foodstuffs ( No meat that is uncooked though... :p ) and other very interesting trinkets...it think it's called the Green Flea Market...Hehehe!! And everything was just so fresh!! We bought quite a load of stuff and walked back, where I discovered a blister...seriously...on my right toe.....

OWCH!!!!!!

My calf muscles hurt like mad and my thighs were throbbing...probably because I've walked more in these two days than I have in three MONTHS!!! LOLZ! But walking here is ok cos the air is fresh and it's pretty cold.... after putting on a plaster, we were out again!! Walked all over to get stuff I really needed..like a comforter since I'm freezing my ass off! LoLz!!!

This morning, we went to Chinatown to get all our soya sauce, oyster sauce...all sorts of sauce, you name it!! *grinz* After walking through Chinatown, we got on a bus back to the city to have pancakes!! Yummy!!! Thick buttermilk pancakes with whipped butter (I thought it was ice cream!!) and maple syrup....MMmmmMMMmmmmm!!!

After which, we came back, deposited out stuff and walked out to the ferry...had to run just so we wouldn't miss the ferry...which was a joke since I cannot RUN!! LoLz!! But we made it and sat on the ferry (it's called the CityCat! All of them are called City Cat(s)! Heheh!!) up and down the river...which was so cold but it was fantastic!!

After that, we came back and cooked dinner....YUM!

I'm am still working through the, "Oh I'm finally HERE!!" phase...so I didn't take any photos cause I was too busy taking in the sights...but soon...LoLz!!

Gonna go sleep adi....tomorrow I'll start work and I'm so NERVOUS!! Muackz you guys!!
