On my third day in Victoria, we do what we had to do or rather what Boon had to do – that is visiting his university, Monash in Clayton. Spent half a day here.

From Monash, the next nearest place to go will be Dandenong Ranges. Actually what I really wanted to do is to ride ‘Puffing Billy’. Puffing Billy is the oldest surviving steam railway ride that covers 25km into the forest and lake and lush fern-filled gullies. Unfortunately, we ended up LOST.

And guess what? We saw like the best sunset ever just by stopping by the roadside on our way downhill from the Dandenong.


And finally to end the day, we head to Springvale. Must go must go, that's why he says. So anyway, Springvale is basically a Vietnam-town. You thought you have landed in Vietnam or something like that.
