Melbourne Royal Botanic Garden

So Yesterday, Asyraaf decided to bring me to the Royal Melbourne Botanic Garden because we were broke and sad. (plus my dad didn't want to give me any more money cuz i had already spent 8k in 3 months)
So our only way was to go to a place that is FOC and can well, at least entertain us for a short time.










 That. My dear people. Is a pigeon standing on the head of an iconic statue.







We took a tram to the botanic gardens and saw this interesting building and decided to check it out.
Turned out to be some memorial place....? But it was pretty cool






















We saw some people standing at the top and we were like "OMG WE GOTTA GO UP THERE TO CHECK IT OUT!!"



And we did

The view was preety spectacular




Headed to the park after that because it was starting to get a little late. (it gets dark at 5:50pm and pitch dark at 6:30pm)


I guess my new favorite season is Autumn





Candid shot





OOTD:
Flared Sleeves Lace Top- USD 12
Beaded Belt- USD 5
Shorts- USD 12
Patterned Stockings: AUD 15
Nude Pumps: AUD 35

I am one hell of a cheapo shopper for clothes






















After the really short "photot shoot" we went hunting for the lake and sawww....





 SWANS MUNCHING ON GRASSS






The rose pavilion

with no roses 


















Damn those eyebags :(







No roses, just lalangs... 
Disappointing




And we found the lake!





















We spent the next hour just staring at the lake and playing with ducks and weird looking birds












Later that night, Asyraaf brought me to Byblos for Middle Eastern food to celebrate the end of our exams

:)) 














We got the platter for 2 and completely forgot that in Melb, platter for 2 means PLATTER FOR 3!

HOLY CRAP LOOK AT THE AMOUNT OF FOOD 




No idea what this is but it's cucumber stuffed with lamb and spiced rice and maybe cheese.

The best dish among the rest




This is the salad 





Lamb and chicken skewer with some pizza looking thing that had too much onions.

=S 






The sides: Curry puff thingy, Lamb things and one stuffed with fetta cheese





 Thank you for the awesome dinner baby!
