to five years and beyond

we celebrated our fifth year in melbourne, the foodie capital of australia, in the company of our dear friends.

it was consistently sunny during our short vacation, a sweet surprise given the irreverent weather in melbourne.

we had a few places in mind where to go to. amongst on our list were rod laver arena, federation square, royal botanic garden, national gallery of australia, shrine of remembrance, sea life, brighton beach and werribee mansion. we were lucky to go to most of them and so much more.

located at one of the strategic locations in the melbourne cbd,  the shrine of remembrance stands tall and proud.

degraves street. i wish i could have as much coffee as there is.

the royal botanic garden offered us the shade and chill we just needed on a hectic pasyal day. (do you notice how kaela adores her tatay?) 

kaela had her share of the moment at sea life


we were welcomed by ampel and harold for lunch in bear brass at southgate.



thereafter, we had a simple anniversary dinner celebration with our friends, the barcenas and the islas, along with tita yolly, at tgi friday's. we headed to lindt cafe after to have our daily dose of caffeine.



on our last day, our friends (still the same crowd) treated us to a hole-in-a-wall filipino restaurant at melbourne central.
i was in heaven to find the truffle oil in QVM. i can't get enough of this place.

anniversaries may be deemed as a celebration between husband and wife. this exclusivity won't work with us, though. as we celebrate the highs and lows in our relationship, we can't discount the fact that we wouldn't be where we are if not for the help and support we got from people who made sure we would have a smoother sail in our journey. no, we wouldn't have it another way.


happy anniversary to us. and cheers to all the love and friendship we have!
