Quite some time ago actually...
Anyway, yes, i am enjoying the holidays now... Sleeping in, cooking "better" food, enjoying movies on my laptop, etc.
So far I've been to Healesville with Mei Xian, Wing Yann and Chee Yung. Quite fun and interesting as we explored the Healesville sanctuary, seeing animals shit and pee all over the place...
Also, we went to the Maroondah Reservoir Park which is basically a park near a dam. Well, there are quite a variety of birds there to watch. But this is definitely not the season to go there. Firstly, the water level is quite low, thus exposing the waterlines. Also, the Rose stairs isn't "rose-y" at all due to the season. Bleh.
However, I do enjoy the fresh air and scenery of the small town of Healesville. To me, it felt like the Raub town in Malaysia, with long, hilly 2 lane roads and trees lining up alongside. Quite a relaxing place to have a walk despite a moderate amount of traffic.
Anyways, here are some pictures!
