Family in Melb [5] – St.Kilda Festival

After continuous cloudy and rainy day today we have a very nice and clear sky, great!

Laurent Cafe Brekkie

This is the only morning we didn’t have brekkie at home but the nice cafe in Ivanhoe. The coffee is amazing as usual, also ordered the almond croissant, totally inferior when compared with the one close to office, also a chicken focaccia, yum…

we just ordered 3 coffees, the other two cups are water... Right is almond croissant

City v Chinese New Year

Didn’t plan much but we’re at city in the first day of Chinese New Year 年初一, it’s all packed near Chinatown and Dragon Dance is all around. You can really feel the festival here, nice… We also walked around a bit taking some ‘classic Melbourne photos’.

Dragon jumping up for the lettuce, outside Crown Bakery Swanstons St The three men, Aunt Chun is always talking about this according to everyone Their face look really weird anyway How can we leave out the big purse in Bourke St Mall?

St.Kilda Festival

Stayed long enough in city, we get on a tram and went to St. Kilda. It’s really a big festival, packed with people, shows, food stalls, amusement game and drinking areas. We watched some shows, ate lot of food, burned by sun seriously and laughed a lot. Really enjoy that. The firey show, silly men Packed St.Kilda under nice weather Love this pancake A LOT! Will bought this everytime I saw it A motorbike show Food again! This time is mini pancake, love it! Yep it is a dry zone, therefore every corner that allow drinking is WELL PACKED

We stayed at the festival for around 4 hours, very tired and hot. Taking tram back to Hawthorn Petaling Street Restaurant for dinner, we didn’t take any photos for that meal, everyone is just tired… Love the food here, always is my favourite in Hawthorn. We’re having yoghurt and fruit as dessert after back home.
