Arrived in Melbourne, sound , safe and sleepy.

From Malaysia,our flight took off late and we arrived at 8 pm in Melbourne. Soumitri was there at the airport and then we took a taxi back home. I and Jacob had looked up for an accomodation through orkut and we had to head towards Braybrooks, a suburb.
The house was very nice and impresive. We were plain lucky to have found that house sitting right at home. The rest had to struggle to find accomodation. I must say we were so lucky.The landlords were also very nice and friendly, and to top it all they had a home theater. :) From the next day we had RMIT orientation programme where we had to chose our courses and other formalities. And all this at 3 degree temeperature.. It was soooooo cold in Melbourne but still quite enjoyable.

The city is one of the very well planned ones. The CBD, Central Business District is the main area of the city which has towering buildings and all the importanat places. Its divided into a grid form so its easy to locate each and every place. The transport system was the most impressive. You need to buy one Metcard ( ticket ) and thats valid for trains trams and buses. And the trains , trams and buses follow a time table which makes it convenient to plan your trips. Mast hai !
