(2) CASUARINA SQUARE




David nawarin gue untuk nyetir mobilnya dari rumahnya ke pusat kota tempatnya kerja. Wow... ini pertama kalinya gue nyetir mobil di Luar Negri. Di Australia lagi ... Cool!! Kebayang kan gimana excitingnya gue...??!! Well, ternyata nggak mudah nyetir mobil di sini meskipun jalanan sepi dan kalaupun ada kendaraan lain nggak sepadat di Indonesia. Kalau kita nyetir di Indonesia, masalah kecepatan nggak terlalu diatur. Malah kalo di jalanan sepi bisa nyetir dengan kecepatan sesuka hati kita. Yang penting nggak nabrak orang ... hehehhehe... Beda dengan di Australia, kita nggak bisa seenaknya. Disetiap kilometer ada rambu-rambu berapa speed yang harus kita pacu. Kalau lebih atau kurang kecepatannya, bisa diberhentiin polisi dan ditilang.

David let me drive his car from his house to his office at the city. Wow... It's my first time driving car at overseas. Moreover in Australia... Cool!! Imagine how exciting me...!!?? Well, actually it's not easy drive car in here even the road was not busy and not crowded like in Indonesia. In Indonesia, there is not so tight role regarding the speed. Specially on the road where is not so busy, we can drive as fast as we can as long as not crash with others car or people...hehehehhe... In Australia we have to follow the role. There are speed sign at every kilometers. If we drive less or over the speed, police stop you and give you penalty.

Karena David kerja di perusahaan transportasi, so kita beruntung nggak perlu keluar uang untuk transport selama di Darwin. Dari kantor David kita naik shuttle bus merah milik Grand Touring keliling kota Darwin. Sebenernya Shuttle bus ini memang disediain untuk ngantar jemput tamu-tamu yang mau ke Casuarina Square, mall terbesar di Darwin. Shuttle bus merah ini selalu datang dan pergi setiap sejam lewat 30 menit. Orang Darwin bilang "Hapast" yang artinya "Half Past". Paul, sopir bus merah ini yang ngajarin kata slank-nya orang Darwin ini. Paul orangnya lucu dan menyenangkan. Sepanjang jalan dia bikin semua penumpang ketawa dengan lelucon-lelucon dia. So kita nggak bosen dan ngantuk sepanjang perjalanan.

Lucky for me and Irene, we don’t need to spend money for transportation while in Darwin due to David works for transportation company. We are going around the city from David office by red shuttle bus of Grand Touring, David’s company. Actually the shuttle bus is providing for guests who wants to go to Casuarina Square, the biggest mall in Darwin. The red shuttle bus depart and arrive every Half Past. Darwin people said "hapast". Paul, the bus driver teaches us that slang word of Darwin people. He’s very nice and funny person. Always bring sense of humor in the bus, so we and another passenger never get bored in the bus.

Tadinya cuma mau jalan-jalan keliling Casuarina Square tapi ternyata nggak berasa nguras habis dollar sama limit kartu credit ... he he he ... Girls always about diamonds and shoes. Apalagi Darwin punya reputasi penghasil mutiara terbaik sedunia dan berlian Australia menyinari imaginasi dunia dengan kilaunya yang unik dan warna-warna exotic pink yang mempesona, champagne yang berkilauan, dan putih yang mempesona. Gimana kita bisa cuek sama banyak discount discount yang ditawarin. He he he he ....

Before our plan only want to going arround Casuarina square but we didn't realize that our dollar spent out and no credit card limit already... he he he he... Girls always about diamonds and shoes. Moreover The Top End has earned a worldwide reputation for producing pearls of the finest quality and Australian diamonds are lighting the world's imagination with their unique blilliance and stunning colour of exotic pink, sparkling champagne and dazzling white. How can we just leave so many discount offered he he he he....
