Evening people...

The 5th day was kinda non-eventful, compared to the previous days where we got to travel here and there.. On a side note, I realised that i took almost all the forms of transport when i was there.. We took the tram most of the time, then we took train to Weribee & we too cab too.. Didnt take the bus though.. haha.. maybe next time eh?

Anyhow, we took the train again, down the Weribee line to another station, this time nearer, called Spotswood ( thanks for the info, Cali). The reason why we took the train, is so that we could get to this place called Scienceworks... Yep, initially i thought it was some happening museum, cos on the Visit Victoria website, it looked promising.. Unfortunately, when we got there, we realised that Scienceworks is actually similiar to the Singapore Science Centre.. In terms of their target audience... But what to do? we went all the way there by train, and walked in the gloomy cold morning weather for 10 mins from the station to get there, so just make best..=)

Yep, the museum, as i said, probably good for the under 12 crowd, possibily even the under 14 crowd, but 21 year olds, pls pls dont waste a morning by going there.. not for us oldies haha..

Anyhow, after Scienceworks, we came back to the city and had lunch, followed by a trip to the Queen Vic Market, again. Yep.. the previous time we went to have a look see, but this time we went to buy stuff! So I got 60 bucks worth of chocs and nougat..=) worth every cent, methinks. But I gotta tell you about the guy who sold us the candy. The shop is called Queen Vics Sweets and its highly recommended, by me anyways... It was quite funny, cos the salesguy probably had sold candy to so many Singaporeans, that he was speaking Singlish to us. Yep.. a bit contrived, but nonetheless, I suppose it loosened us up and helped him make a bigger sale. having said that, the chocs I got are top class. We tried this Irish Cream flavoured Chocolate covered Almonds, and ended up buying 500 g each haha..

Yeah.. anyhow, after Queen Vics mart, we basically just hung around for a while, then I needed to go have dinner with the Chehs & Shaylin (is that the right spelling? Hope it is, or if its not, hope she's not reading this.. ). Anyhow, dinner was nice... Went to this place called the fish house.. The service, as per melbourne norm, was great.. and the waiter brought out the board with all menu for the day and all.. the food was as good as the service , if not better. And , again as per melbourne norm, I was VERY full at the end of the meal..

A note on the food in Melbourne.. Its good, but the portions are very big and as a result, they charge you for it! a basic main will set you back about $7-10! At some point during the trip, i began to miss the 2 dollar wantan mee in the Mandai Hill Camp canteen.. Cheap and Good.=)

Ok and to end the day, we went to this nightspot , of which's name i cannot recall now.. Quite a nice nightspot.. more like the type i prefer... a nice bar, with house-ish music without being to hip-hop poseurish.. The whole place was done up in the style of a school. As in, their toilets were called male/female hygiene classrooms or something along those lines. Also, they distill their own vodka on site. Pity, i didnt get to try... haha maybe next time... I did however, have a beer, courtesy of Dominic, Cheh's friend. Thanks Dominic!

Yep... so that was an interesting end to an otherwise, not very eventful day, and hence, the only day i didnt take any pictures...

Stay tuned, day 6 is just ahead..=)
