Bad hair day! It was so windy.

The next stop is Grants Picnic Ground. We passed by a street that have a few shops along the road side. One of the shops had caught Chai Hoong’s attention which is a crystal shop. Hence we decided to wander around the street.

There were few shops like:

Craf shop

Antique shop

Toy's shop

A picture with this little thing. Haha, isn’t it cute?

Okay… continued with our journey. We kinda got lost in this mount as we couldn’t find the location of Grants Picnic Ground.

Luck was with us, we managed to find the location after a while.

Here we were! We can’t wait to see the Australian Native Birds. You are able to hand-feed these colourful Australian parrots.

They are so beautiful…

We were feeding the parrots!!! I was scared they will bite my hand. I kept asking hubby to quickly snap photo for me while the parrot was being feed from my palm. Hehe

We didn’t stay long there as we were starving already, it was over the lunch time! =D

Off we went to Knox City to have our late lunch at Hogs Breath Café.
