180038_10150098826037239_568062238_6272745_1039366_n
the view outside the train is different from the view inside the train
179853_10150098827592239_568062238_6272796_4797293_n
like entering Narnia LOL

183598_10150098827212239_568062238_6272784_6644861_n
wonder if the water is shallow or deep
185764_10150098827062239_568062238_6272778_1884291_n
and wondering why there's one patch of greenish brown area there

182485_10150098830052239_568062238_6272883_6427814_n
the train is moving at 5.30pm so we got to go up the train before that!
183848_10150098830717239_568062238_6272903_6934692_n
we sat the last row of the train again (which is the front of the train because it is moving backwards now)
183628_10150098830377239_568062238_6272893_378725_n

185775_10150098826257239_568062238_6272752_4971363_n
Fell asleep on the way back..it was 2 hours ride one-way..so let me do the math,2 hours (go) + 2 hours (back) + 1 hour (eat) + 1 hour (tour in Middlemarch) = 6 hours (total) =____=
183977_498576977861_747062861_6148778_1187909_n
we entered 8 tunnels lor
183763_498577032861_747062861_6148779_6677133_n

185778_10150098830752239_568062238_6272904_6717774_n
it was a nice trip in the train..but I won't go for second time because it will be so boring then..one time is enough XD
184843_10150098831122239_568062238_6272911_2497822_n
the beautiful flowers outside the train station

We reached back at Dunedin Railway Station around 7+pm and then I walked back with Kah Yenn because we stayed really near =X On the way back,there were people throwing eggs at the International Student..they were throwing at the students right in front of Kah Yenn and I ! Kah Yenn and I were so scared we took another route back to our flat..so sadistic lah! It gives me a bad impression about the people here already =/
