A Trip down Kengsinton Lane

Wat a day to be train riding down Kengsinton lane... Hmm oh wait a minute or should it be Kensington track????

A group of my frens and i spent one fine Sunday morning to hitch down to Camberwell market which obviously is in Camberwell.

Before i got there i was half expecting a huge market where it will be indoors selling vintage stuff and heaps of other cool stuff with people snatching and bargaining and stuff. Little did i realize that my imagination is not perceived to be what i expected. When i got to the entrance of the market i was looking far ahead for a big building and heaps of stalls all spread out with awesome stuff.

Instead, i walked on and suddenly i saw a mat on the ground to my right piled up with antique decorative pieces and ornaments. It then struck me suddenly that i am actually already at the market and my friends were already walking towards the first clothing stall they saw.

I then realize that this market is actually a second-hand market selling stuff branded 'one man's rubbish is another man's treasure'.

Coolioz... anyway it was an awesome place to get really cool and vintage stuff which is obviously cheaper compared to retail places as its second hand. But who cares, it's in good condition.

After all the excitement at Camberwell we headed back to the city to catch the train back to Clayton. The train scheduled to arrive Melbourne Central to depart to Pakenham is due in 4 minutes. All is cool, Sereen and i waited and when the train came we hopped on just like everyone else.

As usual we were chatting away ignoring everything around us when all of a sudden we heard the announcement on the train saying 'the next station is Kengsinton'

BTW, Kengsinton is not on the list of stops on the Pakenham line. At first i ignored it thinking it might just be one of the faulty train thingy. All of a sudden, we really did arrive at Kengsinton and Sereen and i scrambled out of the train wondering where the heck were we. Gosh we were laughing our ass off.

We took a train back to the city, and while waiting met a few other people who got on the train thinking it was a Pakenham train too. What the heck... We just wasted like almost an hour of our day just there by boarding the wrong train.

But all in all Camberwell market is awesome... hehe
