Cheese to us(dad,ash,chrisa and me) are gold. We are crazy about cheese. When mom went to Australia, she brought back so much cheese that it filled the chiller.

Australian's very owned fast-food chain, Oporto Chicken. Didn't tried the last trips. Finally, got one this time. Value for money. This whole chicken set for A$14.95 for Penny, Poh and I to enjoy to the fullest. Hardly could find any hot meal for this price.
Korean BBQ with Hun Por and Soo Wei in Sydney.
Lebanese treat from Marjoree and Gaik Peng in Brisbane, totally loved it...followed by...
...rich and delicious dessert at Freestyle dessert house. Ed missed this mouth-watering creamy array.
Hot and spicy Northern Indian lunch...food was good but everyone will think twice going to this restaurant. Waiting time was more than an hour. The big gang after church service was impatient but thank God for a good fellowship which kept the hunger in control. Of course, thanks to Ju Min who bought some bread to fill us up for the hour.
There's more to the food in all our fellowships...can't list them all...there's Italian, Chinese, Vietnamese, authentic Australian pie (yum, you must try the Beefy's), and of course simple home-made dishes.
Thank God for fellowship and food!
And yes, she did! So here's one for the girl!
yes, people!
what kind?
one of its kind - WOMEN, the kind the man "wow" at!
A sea of 16,000 women.
3 of the 16,000 taking a brunch break at the celebration of sisterhood at Hillsongs, Sydney.
On board the much boasted SIA new aircraft A380 which has a capacity of more than 500 and comprises two decks...I must say, I was impressed by the upgraded aircraft. However, the much awaited rest on board turned out to be a disaster. The supposedly serene night flight was a nightmare to many. A fussing baby cying the entire journey. No joke. It was a string of neverending loud cries! And the father was pretty much cool about the whole experience. He simply enjoyed his inflight movie with an occassional, "stop it, keep quiet" hoping the distress baby would settle. Sigh.
We landed feeling so groggy and exhausted from a 7 hour buzzing of cries. Our plan to walk the city in Sydney crashed...we knocked off at the hotel. Woke up after a long rest and went for a walk. Penny and I roamed the suburb of Concord West awaiting our hostess, Soo Wei to pick us up after work.
Memory flashed back...a walk in autumn...one full cycle has begun.
The walk in the last autumn, the very day we arrived in Melbourne last year after we rested...I was with Ed and kids...enjoying the autumn breeze and fallen leaves. Now, here, I stand and walking through Sydney suburb welcoming another autumn. The weather has yet to be too chilly. Trees are still green and full. What can I learn from this season? Much anticipation ahead...
