The Biclars

Our last day in Melbourne before we headed off to our honeymoon destinations was spent with friends and family down to the last minute

We had a BBQ on the Monday afternoon and some family and friends over who were either not working that day or called a sickie!

I knew that Elaine had always wanted to drive in Australia so I gave her the opportunity to drive down to the local Safeway supermarket to get some BBQ supplies (supervised by one of our most trustworthy friends, Kevin of course!)

oh dear...

Anyway… my car did make it back in one piece, albeit her driving over a curb as opposed to her driving around it!  Whatever, I’m over it… DAMMIT Elaine!!!  Didn’t you see it?!!

Here’s the video of her in action!

John came ’round to show off his new toy and as soon as Wong saw it, her eyes said to me, “In your dreams buddy!”

*sigh*

Then we ate and ate and ate, and got sleepy in the nice afternoon warmth… it was great

Caroline and Christian took time out from their busy schedule in Japan to be with us. Thanks guys!!!

Kirsten popped by for a bit. Our good friend from Kevin came down from Singapore. And Elaine from LA

Our other Nova buddy, Lisa from Brisbane. And one of my groomsmen, Ivan traveled from London!

My cousin Jeff came ’round after work (cos he heard about the free food!)
My brothers Lenan and Arnel chilled out with us too.

Awwww... how cute

Now, if you know what Ivan is like, he and I are somewhat similar in one way… immature!
What do you get when you mix that with Elaine’s personal attribute of being a trouble maker?
Well… trouble!  A food fight to be exact!
Here’s the evidence of carnage the followed:

After all that craziness, it was time to say our goodbyes

First it was to mum’s place (dad was already interstate for work)
Then to The Glen at Century Walk were we saw Ivan and Hong, John and Lien, Chris and Colin.
And finally we saw Wong’s mum, Sheryl, and Ashley.

Lenan and Elaine saw us off at the airport.

We met up with Caroline and Christian as they were flying out to Japan that same night.

Our flight was at about 1am bound for Bangkok, Thailand with our connecting flight to Phuket.
