Roxie and I both woke up coughing and
sneezing to the cold morning and having a bad sore throat. We must have
forgotten to close the windows last night…I felt strength less like a poor
jelly in bed and Roxie seemed to be having a fever. We gave up the free
breakfast so she could have a little more sleep, I myself was too afraid to go
to the kitchen with no eyebrows. It’s a shame that we will have to postpone our
visit to the aquarium but what’s first priority is to take care of our bodies
and get better. I studied the tour guide and read some books, Roxie stayed
fully asleep.
We headed out for lunch at noon when Roxie
seemed to be feeling better, but still suffering from headache. I wore a hood
like the assassin in Assassin’s Creed and followed around Roxie with my head
down, it would have been much cooler if I had some shuriken strap-ons. After
purchasing a eyebrow maker, we searched for restaurants to dine in. Roxie
should have something hot like a bowl of soup and that should definitely
improve her situation. Lingering for long on the streets, we finally chose
Claypot King again for our feasting place. It’s still a wonderful time with
dear Curry Laksa with many kinds of seafood and tofu. Roxie had some seafood
Udong which she couldn’t finish and had the rest to go.
Mazelike Melbourne made it harder for us to
find our way back. Roxie took some pills and continued her rest, hope she gets
better real soon. As for me, I accidentally dozed off after reading some pages.
It was already dark outside by the time both of us got out of bed. Roxie was
smiling broadly and said she was feeling much better, she even apologized many
times for ruining our day. It’s just stupid, there’s no need to say sorry haha.
We went upstairs and cooked
ourselves dinner, using the leftover of Roxie’s lunch and some Thai rice
noodles fished out from the free food basket. I even put in some sardines that
were recommended by the Scottish guy earlier. It tasted pretty well I have to
say. I went and took a dump in the bathroom for a long time leaving Roxie with
the dishes, giving her no choice but to wash them in the sink! We used the
eyebrow maker on me a little bit later and the first few attempts were
ridiculous!
It’s as if I were playing drama! It was all
disasters until I finally learned to blur the black paint out.
Roxie and I headed out even though it’s dark
outside, we wandered around several lanes and streets but they all looked
pretty similar making it hard for us to memorize. There was this papaw oil that
many recommended, calling it the must-buy supply in Australia. It was said to
be able to cure many injuries like fracture and burns. Roxie followed her Mom’s
order and bought 1 big can, 4 smaller ones and 5 tubes! She even purchased a 6-pack
honey goo toothpaste in China Town for her family. Guess that the souvenirs are
going to take up most of our weight when we go home.
We underground and found a small booth with
nice atmosphere selling some Taiwan dishes and they sell Pearl Milk Tea! It’s
unfortunate that both my chocolate flavored one and Roxie’s jasmine Milk Tea
tasted awful, it made us miss our home Taiwan more.
Everything’s clear and safe while we journey
home. Two other female roommates joined our company today and they were mother
and daughter. It’s a little sad that we didn’t visit any of the tourist spots
today but by the time we go to bed, we were still feeling pretty energetic and
healthy!
PS. There was this big round white guy,
approximately 100 KGs from visual guessing who just came out of the bathroom wearing
nothing, looking all casual and comfortable. Lucky I hadn’t got my glasses on…
