2010 Winter trip - 1/3

It's already winter in Tasmania..... which means it's gonna be supa-SUPA cold.
How's Malaysia? How's Penang? I think the scorching heat of sun may have subsided a bit? perhaps....

okay... Winter trip, where should I start?
Perhaps why me and my friends chose to go onto this trip rather than gathering with our ex-classmates in Melbourne and Adelaide. It is all because of the date. When our school holiday has started, our friends were just about to start their exams..... sigh...(X_X)
Nevermind, we still have years to go...hehehe

Okay, back to this winter trip.
Actually we planned to go in our own vehicle but it was sent to the workshop days before the trip started. Therefore, we split up and squeeze into whatever car that we could find. Me and Rahimi ended up with Hassan and Din. It's my veyr very very first time visting Hobart - the capital of Tasmania. (visited the Hobart airport during my 1st arrival doesn't mean anything) It's located at the south of Tasmania, which is like in the opposite direction from Lonnie aka Launceston. From Lonnie, we took around 1 hour reach the Bonorong Wildlife Park. Even though the park is just a small scale one, I felt kind of satisfied.... because a larger wildlife will mean that the wildlife will have a higher probability of being neglected....erbs~ Why am I thinking about anima rights out of a suddent? XD

The day started off with a raining morning. Luckily, as we moved further, the weather turned better and better. Phew~ "RAINY DAY!! F l_l CK AWAY...oooppss!!"
p/s: I noticed I've been using this word more frequent than in Malaysia... what to do? 入乡随俗嘛。。 masuk kandang kambing mengembek, masukWestern komuniti? F@K! F@K! F@@K!!

Picture took somewhere in Campbell Town. A small town we passed by before reaching Bonorong Wildlife park.
"Our hair has grown long long long..."


Nice? We see this whenever we use the highway. XD



"Country road..... take me home.... to the place I belong...."
I felt kind of relief and secure whenever I heard the locals singing this song, when I went for the rating trip (refer to the post months ago)
Below are the pictures we have taken in the Bonorong Wildlife park:
The Wildlife park has it's own principle in caging the animals inside the park. For the Kookabura Bird on top, it's rescued from the nature. Why? It is because it has not sufficient nutrient when it's growing up, and this cause serious malnutrition and it ended up with a SUPER-KAWAII size wings which can do nothing but flapping around as it jump fron bark to bark.
I know I sounded bit pathetic , but this is the truth!!!
HEY YOU!
You better take your breakfast EVERYDAY!!! EVERYDAY!!!!
(specially directed to all my architecture seniors, juniors and friends)

"I like black colour...coz it's cool...my name is RAIN"
(all the visitors fainted~ (>_<) )

If you came to Tasmania and failed to see the Tasmanian Devils......
then, you're like in the situation where you went out from the toilet without peeing or shitting, but just simply washing your hand..... haha... got it?

In the park, we met up with families of kangaroos.... They are so adorable, cute, chubby, and their shit stinks like the one produced by my dogs. "Eu...."
Just hat they looked rather spherical and exactly like those hazel nut chocolate you bought from the supermarket and give as a present to your friends during their Birthday..... Mmmm...Yummy! =)

Then, here comes this animal with BIG ARSE, gigantic cylindrical body and a peanut size brain. This is how the tour guide described the Koala (just that I edited it a bit in my mind... just a little! XP ) Besides, I also learnt some thing new (no more shit and poo), the leaves that the Koala's eating is actually poisonous to most of the other animals. Just that Koala has a special digestive system which enables it to break down the hazardous element in the leaves. However, there is a disadvantage, the leaves contains mainly moisture and fibre, with very limited amount of nutrient. This is why they always sleep.....
Conclusion: Shit and poo are actually more nutritious because we can see that pigs are more active than koala. XP

Come one brother! Let me hug you!!
Kangaroo: Hai~Yah! (a detrimental kick in my ......) >_<
One of my seniors - Nik Aziz (yes... the one who leads the PAS, Persatuan Alam Sekitar)
"Come on..... eat this... eat... eat.... eat..... grow...grow......grow.....and I will eat YOU!"

After finish visitng Bonorong Wildlife park, we headed towards Cadbury Chocolate factory!!!

I think this is what 'Boy' ge to taste in the novel... DAMN!!! I love it!!!


Previous mold used to make chocolate eggs during Easter

Raw dark chocolate which we get to taste during the discovery session....
SIMPLY Undescribable!!! It's super super bitter!!
Like it!!!
Chocolate butter buttons anyone??
From the Cadbury Factor, I discovered that Malaysia actually plays an important role in providing cocoa beans to Cabury...Hooray!!
Out of Cadbury factory, we continue heading towards Hobart city centre and drop our things at friends' house. Then, we went our again!!! The night life there is way way way ay ay ay... more interesting that Launceston, where poeple sleeps at nine. X)
Taking photos infront of the Peppermint Bay Cruise (which we didn't get on)

A ship by the dock


催璨霓虹等之下。。。
没了星光声声的细语
没了月娘温柔的光环
永无止境 且
繁华的车龙
不断穿梭。。。
留给自己的是
无尽的落寞 和
追逐梦的脚步
Miss me? XD

Actually, we're supposedly going t bed by that time..... the weather is cold and people by the road are decreasing in number.....
We went to Woolworths,
grabbed a box of cinnamon donuts
which were already discounted 3 times
and a bottle of lime soda.
Wa walked for a distance and sit at a place near the deck
where the sea breeze were clam and rather soothing.
Sometimes, life is just that simple...... just that simple.
When night falls, is it true that everybody has a story to tell?
......total silence....

Cheers!!
and
-Till here then-
