Visiting Australia (Melbourne) and New Zealand South Island... Part 1

this post is actually pending for more than a year... oh goshhh.... trip ni masa tea tengah pregnant.... cam cuak gak laa nak gi masa tu sbb pregnant, tp tpaksa keraskan ati jugak gi sbb sumer dah bayar masa tu.. tempat tinggal (hotel, B&B), flight tix, car rental etc2 laaa...

tea beli tix masa promo air asia... gi berdua je ngn kawan tea masa zaman study dulu... Nai... We bought tix KL - Melbourne - New Zealand (Christchurch) - Melbourne - KL... sbb kitorang cuma ada masa dalam 9 hari je for this trip.. kitorang cuma sempat cover south island aje... north island tak sempat and kebetulan we really intend to enjoy the scenery aje.. insyaAllah, ada peluang, nak cover lagi NZ ni, both south island (again) and then north island... Melbourne tu plak just untuk feeling2 jejak OZ aje, so enjoying the ride via free trams around the city is enough...
Sampai2 kat melbourne tu, we went sight seeing dekat Zoo dia....killing time before flight to NZ via New Zealand air...








Honest, tak pegi Melbourne Zoo ni pun takpe... rasanya Zoo Negara lagi best... ok... so, i dont feel like bla bla2 explaining our trip here... LOL.... jujur sangat kannn....

Finding Halal Food in Melbourne is relatively easy.. kat mana2 aje mmg ada halal shop.. boleh google... kalo susah sgt.. cari aje laa restoran Nando's or kebab...



exploring NZ's south island, tu pun sempat cover half of south island aje... below are our planned
routes.. memandangkan tea pregnant masa tu, elak lalu kawasan berbukit sgt... so kitorang tak gi tengok glacier... kitorang pun cuma pakai keta mini aje and very the murah cost sewanya... we bought everything online awal2... termasuk la tiket ke milford sound... kitorang sewa dengan jucy rental... sbb cheaper, kereta elok and local rental co... sbb kalo hertz or avis tu mahal sgt2 sbb international. yang penting, jangan sewa semata, beli laa skali ngn insuran ye...



within a week, kitorang drive/lenjan keta tu almost 1000 km okeh... berdua aje.. huhuhuhu.... but it was a very fun journey...



A – B (Christchurh – Dunedin)  360 km ( 4.5 hrs)

B – C (Dunedin – Te Anau) 290 km (3.5 hrs) via Oamaru & Timaru

C – D (Te Anau – Milford Sound) 118 km (1.5 hrs)

D – E (Milford Sound – Queenstown) 286 km (3.5 hrs)

E – F (Queenstown – Tekapo) 256 km (3 hrs) (via Lindis pass)


F – G (Tekapo – Christchurch) 256 km (3 hrs)  via Methven


perjalanan from Christchurch to Dunedin mmg cantik sgt.... indah tahap nanges.... on the way tu, we stop by Mouraki Boulders... batu2an unik bulat2 tepi pantai...






In Dunedin, kitorang mmg explore the town and also cadbury world.. berbaloi laa kiranya our trip ke sana... tiket cadbury world pun kitorang beli online jugak sblm datang... beli awal2... senang...
we bought the full tour pakej.. baru puas hati.. dah alang2 datang sini kan... kalo korang interested, buleh usha kat sini --->>> https://www.cadbury.co.nz/en/cadbury-world/tours.aspx
