So our story continues at our new Aussie family!
One night we went to a drive in with our neighbor; the 3th musketeer; Sabien. We picked her up in Daddy's big red pick up; Steve said that would be more comfi, Okay Steve! Sabien was very surprised to see this car in stead of our white van.
Our new mom and dad took us another day to see the area around Melbourne. We went to a beautiful nature park, got a piece of history and watched many beautiful views. Of course, a beer in the local pubs could not be missed here and there. We really had wonderful days with them!
Melbourne we can describe very briefly: eating, drinking, shopping and occasionally a little bit of culture. And oh yes, we have also been to the Australian Open. For the tennis lovers among us ;-)
Steve told us we also had to check out the casino. We enjoyed ourselves at the roulette table cause that game we understand. We have had $110 gain in 10 minutes and 5 minutes later $35 loss... Again, Sabien talked to 2 guys from Dubai, earning profit after profit. We had to go over there! Which resulted in a loss for Sabien and $75 profit for us. Sorry Sabien!!
The guys ended up winning $1000 and they paid our drinks all night so we had a great time! At 4 o'clock we went to the hostel we booked in Melbourne and we fell asleep in an old bunk bed.
In the morning long lines for breakfast... Grrrr hate this! We wanted to go back to Daddy Steve, because every morning the baked eggs with toast were ready for us.
After that we took the train back where he was waiting for us at the station.
The next day we were very busy packing for New Zealand. Of course, Steve brought us to the airport.
Our next report will be after the weekend and will be about our first days in breathtaking New Zealand! Be prepared for some epic pictures!
