Stayed over the night before at the guys' apartment cos we had to catch a 5 (or was it 6?) am bus to go to Mount Buller! The guys bought a Groupon deal while I made separate reservations with the tour group. Theirs was slightly cheaper although I really can't remember how much! It includes to and fro transportation plus a cable pass so you can grab the cable up a higher point of the mountain to ski! Ski gear and equipment additional. So it's a 4-hours drive from city to Mount Buller and we basically just KO-ed on the coach!
 |
| Pit stop at Yea before heading up the mountain. As you can tell from the background, it was super foggy at where we were! |
 |
| Arrival at Mount Buller! |
We had vouchers for some of the eateries at Mount Buller and we opted to eat at this pancakes place!
 |
| Big breakfast |
 |
| Original pancakes with a generous scoop of ice cream |
 |
| you can never go wrong with chips. who says we can't have them for brekkie? |
 |
| Savoury pancakes! my tastebuds preferred the sweet ones |
After brekkie, we took the cable and went cam-whoring up the mountain. It was FREEEZING. Be adequately protected with jackets, scarves and gloves I kid you not. Don't say I didn't warn you.

| Unknown taliban LOL. This HM was so cold she basically covered every part of herself up with everything she could find. |
Instead of spending A$300 on skiing, we decided to rent toppogans instead! Here we are getting ready to toppogan at designated toppogan slopes.
 |
| Building a snowman! |
 |
| Because of the boob that were originally on him before HM plucked them off lol. |
 |
| That is our snowman named BOOBS. |
 |
| Making our way back to city. |
Dinner was at Lygon Street, also known as the 'Little Italy' of Melbourne because this is where you can find streets and streets of Italian eateries and restaurants!
I recommended Cafe Coretto which I had tried twice before and found it pretty good, so the rest were happy to take up my suggestion!
Cafe Coretto
227 Lygon St, Carlton, VIC 3053
 |
| Pumpkin soup! Looks like baby food. |
 |
| They are famed for their home-made lasagna! It is really good. |
 |
| Avocado pasta |
 |
| Agnolotti peppino |
Brought the guys to Brunetti also along Lygon St for desserts but it was pretty crowded so we decided to tabao back instead! Their desserts are wide-ranging and not the cheapest priced but the quality and standard are pretty good! So far I haven't tried anything that I dislike yet. That could also be because of my sweet tooth haha.
After trying to finish the desserts at the apartment (failed! too much!), I made my way home and called it a night.
