Winter Break Experience #2

on Sunday, July 19, 2009

The idea of visiting Himeji Garden came across our minds on official results release date. How cool was that? And yeah, I passed my SP2 (not with flying colours though) but I’m more than satisfied. :)

First of all, some introduction to Himeji Garden. This Japanese Garden was built back in 1985 as an icon for the bonds of friendship between Adelaide and Himeji Region of Japan. They are sisters, cool.

This small garden blends two classic styles, the senzui (lake and mountain garden) and kare senzui (dry garden). Before entering the garden, there was me posting with the flowers. *say cheese*

Next, I shall step out and let the pictures do the talking…

Picture on right: The “equipment” was cool! When it fills in enough amount of water, it will automatically pour them away.

It was a Saturday afternoon so after 5pm, everything was closed except for night clubs and pubs. We hang out in the casino waiting for dinner and when the clock ticked six, off we were at the Pancake House. The meal was satisfying but unfortunately, I didn’t keep any pictures of them.

After pancakes, we went back to the casino, walked around and waited until 8pm coz it was the time when crowd started to swarm in. (for fun)

All in all: A great day. A sumptuous meal. Perfect companion.
