The Trip

Went to the Moreton Island for a couple of days. Left home really really early. 4.30 like that. At that moment, the weather was pretty chilly, and I was in my slippers, surf shorts and T-shirt! And I believe it's all mental. Just don't think about it and it'll go away.

Met the girls at their house in Indooroopilly where we'll take a Maxi-cab to the Brisbane port where we'll take a ferry (is that a ferry?) to sunny Moreton Island. Events for the day were, kayaking, sand-tobogganing, and dolphin feeding. Did I miss out anything??? Oh ya. water splashing and more water splashing.

Kayaking was fun. 1st time i ever did that but i admit i'm good! ;-) hahah :-] Enough of my boasting. It was quite a good experience, but stressful on my muscles. Next up was sand- tobogganing. Sand was really really fine and the wind was really really strong. urm.... actually the wind wasn't that strong.. but its still not the usual breeze. Unfortunately, I only took it once. I strained my back, decided against straining it even more. ARGH!!! so sad... HAha, but it was fun looking at people eating sand. Hehehehe. Muhahahaha. And there's more sad thing to come. The camera that I was using let me down. The most reasonable reason was that some sand went into it and some mechanism just couldn't take it. So.. I've got only 20 odd pictures. SADDD

I was wet for most of the time. Wet from playing in the sea, and not for anything else.... Was hardly dry. Dolphin feeding was in the evening when the sun has set. By the way. the sun set at around urm... 5.30? Hmm... somewhere there. And the cold wind blew onto me... "When the cold wind blows...." So bloody cold... but its all in the mind... ;-) Fed the wild dolphins, but weren't allowed to touch them, so its kind of SAD! But still managed to get near to it.

By the time the whole thing ended, it was already dark. DUH!!!!!! Back to the villa for dinner. BBQ, Aussie style. On a gas-operated hot-plate. Not charcoal-grilled. After dinner, 1 loser, i mean guy took out his tarot cards and started to become a gypsy. Hahaha... only "asked" about the camera, and its future looks diminishing. SADD!!! When everyone was sick with the game, the same loser, i mean guy decided to asked some really really knowledgeable questions on business and marketing. Learnt a few things that night, from the loser, i mean guy. The night ended at 3 with some really really lame and silly jokes.

The next day started in a rush cos need to checkout by urm...... i forgot what time. ;-p The wind was strong, so there wasn't any "dangerous" water sports available. SADDD!!! ARGH!!!!!! No para-sailing, no jet-skiing, no nothing.... so its off to water splashing and building urm... pyramids. hahaha ;-)

All in all, its a fun trip. Actually, its the company that made my trip enjoyable. THANK YOU to all. Really appreciate what the girls had done. The planning, food, etc. etc... A BIG THANK YOU!!!! Thanks leh! So when are we going out together again??? I'm certainly looking forward to it. Cheers!

Looked at the stats of my blog views and am pretty amazed at how its going. I'd got views from Singapore! Australia! USA! Thailand?!
Of these countries, I pretty well know who's being looking at my blog but there's still a question mark over some areas. Like my fans from New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory, please tell me who you are. or simply leave a tag! yea?
