老爸老妈,干爹干妈 - 墨尔本之旅 (四)

Day 260
19 April 2011

 
Time flies. Today's already the 4th day that they're here and I only have 2 more days with them. I'm going to miss them so much. After yesterday's super tiring tour to Phillip Island, they set off for the Great Ocean Road today. Mama Goh is afraid of beaches, seas and oceans and I can imagine how scary today's tour will be for her. The tour will probably end around 9 plus and I told them that I would meet them to bring them for dinner or supper. Papa Goh needs his food!

Mr Tan has been complaining about his hair and we headed to Sui this evening for his haircut. As this is a Korean/Japanese salon, you can imagine how his hair will turn out. Haha. It's a refreshing change and I immediately sent picture of his new haircut to Jasmine, Jiaqi, Shenton and Bro, with the caption, "The hottest Korean Star". The 2 Js couldn't stop laughing but the other 2 complimented him on his new look! Haha. Shenton actually said, "Compare this with the old 90's centre parting, this is so much better." I agree with him totally but it might not last long as he needs to style it in the morning and I doubt he'll have the patience to do it. Had dinner at Meshiya @ QV while we waited in the city for them to return. Saw a promo pack of Asian beer, 8 bottles for $10! Super cheap! Grabbed it for Papa Goh immediately. Also bought some Aussie beer from Dan Murphy's for Papa Goh to try. (Btw, I thought Mr Tan looks abit like Da Da after his haircut :) )

We waited and waited and waited and finally got a call from them at 9pm to say that they are back! Yippie! Told Mr Tan to go home first but he insisted on accompanying me. :) We went to their hotel to wait for them and it was another 30 minute wait. They were finally ready around 10pm. Godpa told us that he might have lost his handphone yesterday and we quickly called Singtel to terminate his line for the time being. 

We headed to Pacific House for a late dinner. Wanted to order some char siew for Papa Goh but it was already sold out for the day. In the end, we ordered fried rice, dumplings noodles, roasted pork rice and vegetables. The portions were quite large and although Mr Tan and I had already eaten, we were "forced" to help with the food. No prizesfor guessing the final destination. Yes, we headed to Crown. Godpa was so eager to hit the jackpot again! We accompanied them for an hour or so before Papa and Mama Goh decided to call it a day. It has been a super long day for Mr Tan and I really appreciate him making the effort to keep them company. 2 more days with Papa and Mama Goh and they'll be returning home. I'm so going to miss them....
