Melbourne Tour (Part 1/7) - Great to have a Trunki

We had just returned from our 6D/5N tour to Melbourne, Australia. This was the first time that we had decided to join a group tour ever since my darlings were born.  Before the trip, we had been pondering should we bring our stroller along too.  Though our Maclaren Volo is super light, we finally decided against it cos' we already had 2 checked-in, 2 handcarry luggages and +++ .(their own baby luggages, jackets etc).
We were fascinated to see a child travelling on a trunki luggage.  So we decided to get one at the airport for our darlings.  It was a blessing that we had bought it as it was really a wrong move to go on a tour without a stroller with young children.  My Sweetie who did not get to have a good afternoon nap (as she used to have), would want to be carried at all times.   But the thing is, it wasn't easy carrying her (with our jackets on) to go shopping and not forgetting that this Sweetie now weighs 16kg. 
Luckily, we have our trunki.  My darlings just love taking turns on the trunki and being chauffeured around on it in the Melbourne city.  Many passerbys would turn their heads and look when my darlings "drove" past.  And these 2 darlings just really look so cute riding on it.  It was definitely a great buy.  See the video of them in Melbourne city.


It was a great holiday with nice weather and many wonderful experiences.  My darlings love this trip very much.  For families with young children, a trip to Melbourne is never a wrong choice.  Most important of all, it was a great break before Mummy returns to the workforce next year.
