Every Tuesday, my father in law goes out with his best friend, Ian.. Usually, they will go to a place and play the poker machines and have lunch. Last Tuesday, the 12th October 2010, they went to a the Belair hotel in Blackwood. Because I've never been there, they invited David and I to join them.
Kami berangkat naik kereta dari Mawson Lake Interchange, jurusan ke city. Di city berganti kereta jurusan Belair.
We took the train from the Mawson Lakes Interchange to the city, where we changed trains to Belair.
Karena di stasiun kota sempat menunggu sekitar 20 menit, Papanya David, Bertie mampir beli teh dulu, sedangkan Ian dan David pesan kopi. .
At the station we had to wait for around 20 minutes, so David's Dad, Bertie had a cup of tea while Ian and David bought a take away coffee.
Kereta di Adelaide bersih-bersih, tapi karena pernah dimarahin foto-foto di stasiun, saya agak takut juga memotret di dalam kereta.
Trains in Adelaide are very clear, but because I'd been scolded before because took the pictures in the station, I was a bit afraid when I took these pictures.
Blackwood terletak di daerah perbukitan sebelah Selatan Adelaide, sekitar 18km dari city. Perjalanan ditempuh dalam waktu sekitar 15menit dari kota.
Blackwood is located south of Adelaide in the foothills and is around 18km from the city. The trip takes around 15 minutes from the city.
Kami berhenti di stasiun Glenalta. Dari stasiun kami jalan ke Belair Hotel, tempat Bertie, David dan Ian akan main poker mesin.
We stopped at the Glenalta station. From here we walked to Belair Hotel, where Bertie, David and Ian played their poker machines.
Sementara Berti dan Ian main poker, David yang sudah menang $20, menemani saya minum kopi dan foto-foto di sekitar hotel.
While Berti and Ian played poker, David who had just won $20, had a cup of coffee with me and we took some pictures around the hotel.
Menunggu waktu makan siang, kami berjalan-jalan dulu di suburb yang termasuk kawasan elite ini. Penduduk Blackwood yang berjumlah sekitar 3800 orang ini, 71% diantaranya adalah asli orang Australia. Sisanya orang Inggris, Jerman, Scotland dan New Zealand. Di daerah ini saya tidak melihat orang asia lho.
While waiting for lunch time, we walked around this exclusive suburb. Blackwood's population is around 3800. 71% of them were born in Australia, the rest come from England, German, Scotland and New Zealand. I didn't see any Asians here.
Beberapa rumah di daerah sini ada yang berbentuk unit. Satu kompleks tanah yang terdiri dari beberapa rumah. Harga rumah disini berkisar antara AUD$350ribu - $450ribu untuk rumah dengan 3 kamar tidur.
Amongst the houses around here, are units. This is where one block of land has a number of smaller houses. The price for 3 bedroom house here is around $350k - $450kAUD.
Blackwood kota yang cukup nyaman, tidak terlalu ramai dan rapih.
Blackwood is a nice city, not too crowded and very neat.
Menjelang jam 12 siang, kita jalan balik ke Belair hotel untuk makan siang. Karena Bertie dan Ian punya VIP member card, kita dapat complimentary makan siang gratis. Menu untuk kita Burger and Chips. Seperti biasa, karena porsinya besar sekali, saya sih tidak bisa habis.
It was almost 12 o'clock, we went back to the Belair hotel for lunch. Because Bertie and Ian have a VIP members card, we had a complimentary Burger and Chips. As usual, because it was a big portion, I couldn't finish it.
Nah itulah kisah tentang setengah hari bersama Berti dan Ian. ^_^
Well, that's a story about one Tuesday out with Bertie and Ian. ^_^
