Little Snow River Waterfall
This waterfall was a splendor. It only exists after rain. I still remembered the day I was lost in this national park and my tyres were all deflated by pointy rocks...

Wet Lake Garda
This view reminded me of a time that I went to all sorts of places to get photographs under various types of weather.
The day was rather stormy with floods rampaging most Grampian National Park. The desolate look did remind something about life...
Rain often comes to the rescue when the drought has killed almost everything. Where is hope?

A walk in the city on Queen's birthday day
Photos would speak for themselves I think...
Here we go!
Looks very energy efficent by drawing some artificial lighting.
Now lets celebrate earth hour by using more electricity !!!!
So many people cared about earth hour... errrr...
If you are blinded by eye patches, sure you dont need electricity!
This is how I celebrate my earth hour lol
Yes, cooking is more fun using gas instead of electricity. Green house effect is a good distraction for us.
This guy supposed to teach us how to use the funnel and flask to distill coffee ... It turns out some chemical reactions undesirable!
Yeah, C grade class event today in city.
Mmmm I love coffee...
Little Collins St
Lets drink some soup.
Portugese chicken soup - A little too normal...
Smoked bacon pea and zuccini soup
Cafe life is very relaxing...
Long lasting melody
The end
This building was recently made at Federation Square in the name of Earth hour... It looked sooo ugly that I doubt it was that environmentally friendly...

Pork Confit gone wrong!
This supposed to be a delight with delicate fat to melt on the tongue. Instead, this spanish restaurant was all failure through and through. Look at that thickness of uncooked fat!!! What a rip off. This was at Warrambool.

Bridge Street 2 - Graffiti
Very Australian history themed here
It was really a cold day by Melbourne standard. So glad that I got my desktop fixed after 1 year of using sad little laptop that will hang the screen everytime I opened up a browser...

Bridge St Melbourne Breakfast
Torch is reknown for coffee. It has a good reputation. The visit to the place was quite an unusual expereince on its own. The coffee smell filled the air. It was just heavenly.
The menu looks great with a large selection of dishes to pick from
My omlette was with basil pesto. Very aromatic.
The place was rather made a country style with a touch of homeliness.

Bay of Martyrs
This shot took us 2 hours to search this spot and waited for the sun set for consecutive 2 days. Well, it makes my day!

Fusion dish, Kobe Jones, Dockland
It was once said ...
Fusion cuisine is something when a chef is not well trained in 2 fields, combining half learnt skill from 2 styles of cuisine...
Sad existence.
However, this one did taste great. A bit of Japanese and French.
Kobe Jones, Dockland., Melbourne.

Rowing Boat
As usual, this tricky fellow took me to this particular E. coli infested Yarra river making an adventure out of paddling a semi-sunken canoe. The freezing temperature of the surrounding did trigger the hybernation reflex in my system. However, listening to him talking about all the hallucinogenic dreams of wise investment in wind power energy does strike me that he could be a likely green party supporter. Despite all these uninvited stimulus on a cold afternoon, this made my day...
The tender brachiradialus muscle released endorphine for my extremely addictive nature. That came unexpectedly.
The wet thigh from osmosis of water deriving from bottom of the canoe gave me that spinothalamic tract seizure. I did feel alive.
The familiar nagging and hassling from an old time friend really made the experience worthwhile.
This picture was a snap look on how I remembered about him from many years ago.
Though you were on the flight back home. Leonid, you are home to my lost soul.

The light abstract
A back lit photo. Yet, it does create that mundane feeling about it.
I was with Leonid and the weather allows great conversation to take place.
Leonid, stop nagging me about driving too fast or give way to L platers. I know how to drive :P

Leonid - My friend
My good friend for many years. Haematologist!
We were inseparable in medical schools. He then left for US without any news ever since. Now a dad of 4 children. Good that he is now back in touch!
