Family Trip Day 3 [Puffing Billy + Picnic @ Lake Emerald]

This day was our free day so we don't have to follow any tours. However, we did went out of city to visit some places. Thanks to my 2 aunts, they brought us for Puffing Billy, Australia's century-old steam train. It runs along a mountain track so we get to see beautiful sceneries along the way.
A special part of this train is that we can dangle our legs out when the train is moving. Get to breath real fresh air and have a closer look at the nature. All in all, its a very interesting experience. Even my parents enjoyed it!

There're several stops between the starting point and the final station. We hopped off at Lake Emerald to have our picnic lunch. Aunty Hoon and Aunty Kiak prepared sandwiches, drinks, fruits and desserts for us...how nice and sweet of them~ Annoying flies still flying around during our lunch-time...so irritating~ Despite that, it was a simple but enjoyable picnic by the lake~
Me waiting for lunch...hehe =p

After lunch, we went to Blue Dandenongs to feed the colourful Crimson Rosellas, beautiful parrots. Everyone was enjoying feeding the birds, except for me, you know why? Cos I was bitten by one that day!! The white one!! So painful...arghhh~ They might be pretty but dangerous at the same time!!
