Vacation .... (or How I need another one) - Part 1

Salam All,

Before I left for Melbourne, one of my colleagues said that "You know what you will need after a vacation? Another one". Yup but wrong on one part .. I actually need another two.

Well came back safely to Malaysia after leving for Melbourne with the family on 19th August.

It was the 1st time for me back to Melbourne after leaving it to come back to Malaysia after my studies. I never actually thought I would get to see it again. Somehow I thought I had left it for good.

When I landed at Melbourne Tullamarine the temperature showed 2 degrees Celsius. Happy giler after facing high 30's kat KL. My kids and wife were so happy to be reaching Melbourne. I was emotional too coming back after all these years.

One moment ... masa nak landing .... as the plane was flaring .... one Mat Salleh was commenting how smooth the landing was .... but of course it was followed with a bump as the plane tak le landing lagi ... bengap jugak.

OK ... one advise... when they ask you to declare food ... don't forget that powdered milk is food. I did not declare but managed to tell the officer before check that actually I had not registered in my my mind that powdered milk is considered dried food.... oh duuuh. But he let me off easy after I said it was for my daughter and since I had told him before the check.

Came out of Tullamarine it was cool and sunny. My kids happy dapat tengok wap kat mulut. He he.

The drive to Melbourne city was okay but mostly caught in a very minor jam (by KL Standard). Was happy seeing Melbourne skyline since you can actually catch sight of it form far as Melbourne is so flat.

Reached the hotel early and got our rooms early. Great. Time to settle down and unpack .... next we're going out.
