Melbourne...and the story goes...







Marshal's home sweet home

Day 1

The next day, we woke up and we saw two lil cute kiddo...Victoria and Ethan! Wow...they were so adorable. You just feel like pinching them on their cheek! Victoria was quite shy...It took us quite some time before she can be familiar with us. And...by evening..the real kiddos were alive! They were so playful. Me and sweetheart just couldn't catch up with them! What a shame for us!haha

11.15am - City Life Church

Brother Paul, Ellina's husband then came over and took us to City Life chuch!
Amazing Sunday service. It was quite a big church.

12.30pm - Pho Huong Viet

Then Marshal and family took us to a Vietnamese restaurant.
Dear ordered "Broken Rice" while I ordered "Special Beef Noodle". It was fantastic! Even the rice paper prawn roll tasted so good!

nearby.
