Awww as i blog now. I really missed the days at Philip Island!!
2 Days 2 Nights....
Friday(30/03/07)
The Drive to Philip island starts!! It's a 2 hour journey from Melbourne. There were altogether 16 people. 2 cars fit us all in. One car was driven by Prof. Philip, the other is by Tin. I was in Tin's car, and was HAPPY. lolx. I think the journey in our car is much more lively than the other. We sang songs thru the journey, chit-chat and eat! No sleeping in the car...!! (that wud be boring)
After ard 2 hours we reach San Remo. Stop there for Fish & Chips takeaway and continue the journey across the bridge to Philip Island. The 16 of us stayed in a Bungalow (very BIG and beautiful). All of us were quite surprise that we are staying in such a BEATIFUL house!! There were altogether 4 bedrooms and 2 living rooms, a balcony and a garden with a swing! After finishing our take-away fish and chips, we started "fighting" for the "best rooms". In the end, I shared a room with Sharon,ps and xuan in a 2 double decker bed room. I slept on the top deck. And it was fun climbing up and down. In another room with 2 double decker bed, someone slept on the top deck too.. *wink* After settling down in the rooms, we went up to the living room to play card games. Oops, haven intro all the ppl who went. Here they are:
The 11 of us from Sg, and Prof. Marriott, Marco Polo (french, Sharon likes him BUT i prefer --> Tin[lols](used to be vietnamese, now australian,), Omar (mexican) & Nok (Thai). Played animal Chess with Marco, and he is really GREAT. Very fast learner. After more cardgames we eventually went to sleep.
Saturday(31/03/07)
Woke up at 4.45am! Took a morning shower and finally went out for sunrise at the nearby beach at 5.45am. Awww.. Couldn't see the sunrise at all though we are totally facing EAST! The sky is full of ominous dark clouds that signaled to us that we wun get the sunrise today..Hence, we went back home sorta disappointed. When we reach home, the house is locked, and we didnt had keys!! Tot of knocking at the guys window to wake them up, but Prof marriott came out in his tight fit jogging attire and we are able to get in without waking anyone. In we went.. had breakfast and soon it was noon time. Went for a walk to The Muttonbird rookeries which stands at 112m high! The whole walk took around 2 hours i guess. And on the way back some of us including me, took another route back. The route is 5 times harder than the normal route (i guess it really is!!) The sand is Sooo soft!! The moment u step on it, u legs will sank in. Walk walk and walk, was kinda afraid we will be leaft in tht deserted island =x but afterwards some the guys down on the lower side of the cliffs. Thus we decided to slide down the cliff to meet them instead of continue the tough road. Tot im gg to die falling of the cliffs!! PHEW! So hard to get down! Thank godness we are all safe!! After that we went for Lunch and Shopping @ the town of Philip island..
After that we went Penguin Parade to check out the prices and timing for tonight. Its a place where you can see many many penguins. The place connected to a ocean and the penguins will gather at night on shore and we can see them Parade! haha...It was around 4plus and its time to shop for food!!! BBQ at house tonight!!! WOOHOOO~~~....salads, sausages (a must), bread, chicken wings, eggs...limited stuffs...but should b enough. Haha...Back to the house, we all help out to prepare the food (salads and chicken wings) before we left for the Penguin Parade which starts around 6.30pm. The penguins are so Tiny and all over the place!! Cute. Fairy penguins they are called. And is the Smallest penguin in the world.
Anyways, after the parade we went home and start BBQ party!! yum yum~ The ppl bbq-ing sure does a good job!! Nice FOod!! We drank wine and beer...(really think tat i keep drinking in aussie haha) .
Den we started playing card game (MURDERER). It was FUN. FUN and FUN. haha.. All of us joined in the game except 2 who went zZzzz (boring) lolx. Lotsa interactions.. And it was like 2am did we finally stop the game and went to zZzzz...
