I am gonna give a blow by blow account on my recent trip (mainly for selfish reasons as i dont wanna type or tell everyone about the whole trip again and again).
Reached the airport and checked in. I decided to buy a bottle of Jaeger instead of the usual whisky to try something different. Had loads of Victoria Bitter (VB) on the flight, and my cousin attempted to flirt with the flight attendant, who seemed tipsy and was having vodka lime throughout the flight i think. He was shot down obviously and i attempted to make the best out of this situation by trying to ask her what should we check out in Melbourne. She replied ,'Oh, there are some amazing Malaysian restaurants in Melbourne'
I straightaway replied that I wanna see Australia and not Malaysia in Melbourne and i think that ended any chance of her revealing which hotel she stays in also...hehehe....
So we got to Melbourne and would you believe it, at immigration they thought my Passport was fake. I thanked god they didnt do a cavity search on me. It tooked them about 20 mins and lots of checking to decide that my passport wasnt really fake. My uncles had a good laugh. Next was customs and they dont have a green line i think or maybe we were in the green line which is why they didnt check our bags.
Anyway as they asked us some routine questions, the Customs officer just said 'Oh I know you here for Padman's wedding, and do you have your wedding invitations with you?' And we were like, what the fuck is going on????? We just agreed with him on everything as we didnt wanna antagonize him. Scarily he just let us go and when we checked with the bridegroom, he dont have no friend at Customs so we figured he was just your average dodgy Aussie.
Next up, we collected the rental car....Got an MPV and also got upgraded to a Ford Falcon sports cars with a V8 engine. It was fucking awesome. We reached our fucked up hotel in the middle of nowhere at around 9 in the evening, unpacked and went to the nearby Coles supermarket and got lamb and we grilled it for dinner and it was awesome.
Had a black label after that and was pissed drunk and there were some dodgy conversations going on and we all went to bed at around 5 in the morning as none of us remember to change the time on our watches to Melbourne time and were under the impression its only 3 in the morning.
All things aside it was a good arrival and I shall post my 2nd days experience up soon as well.
