memorable trip part I

wow, is tat a spider web i saw on the blog? keke.

i wish i'm in my dreams & i wan go back aus!! back 4 4 days & i'm still dying 4 the place. i tin i've been kinda floating ard the workplace these few days with post-hol syndrome. i feel really sleepy.

the 10-day aus trip was quite a blast in my opinion other than the let-down weather (a rainy aus anyone?) at times, getting the tour group 2 move on, reminding them tat the aus clock ticks fast & earlier, trying my best 2 be a navigator, trying my best 2 stay awake when i'm at the front seat. my entire family was there, thy BF was there, i tin everyone's quite happy 2 be with everyone & the trip has helped bonded everyone better, like now mum shd be assured tat bro's gf seems like a gd cook. she cooked breakfast every morn if need be. contrast? i slept & woke up 4 breakfast every morn. luckily thy BF's mom wasn't there :P

the trip started wif brisbane & our 1st stop was harbourtown!! the rain did spoil things tho...thy sisters ended up not visiting some major shops & had 2 explain how could they have missed out those places?? lol. our 4 days at bris were spent visiting the same old places, like my fave surfer's paradise, indooropilly, south bank & we went to the Treasury casino 4 the 1st time thks 2 dad & mum...i like the place coz itz non-smoking. nice. we also did a lot of shopping wif harbourtown, indooro, queen st mall & DFO!! i like.

we moved on 2 byron bay on the 5th day. the day started fine wif fine weather & our drive down was rather smooth. everyone got a tad excited by the cows, horses & farms they saw on the way. the beach wasn't as gd as surfer's in my opinion but well, itz the drive 2 the accomodation tat baffles everyone. i could feel my heart thumping harder & harder wif every inch's drive esp aft we drove onto the right street. when we arrived, everyone was shocked. well, we had 2 drive thru a passageway (with trees on both sides), then we finally got 2 the hse which overlooked the hills. beautiful scenery but it reminds me of those houses in slasher flicks. everyone was quite unused 2 the surroundings. needless, most of us had a bad nite (esp mom who is so scared) & 4 me, the idea of the owner sharpening his knife in his house doesn't help 2 put me 2 sleep cum menses cramp. how nice. we woke up at 5am the next day & left the house. oh well, the main highlight of byron was 2 catch the sunrise altho we do use 漏夜落跑 2 describe the scene coz everyone was frantically packing their stuffs 2 leave the house but...hey, the sunrise dun wait k. Right after stepping out of the house, we then knew it was raining. needless 2 say, there goes our sunrise (again).

spent much of the 6th day driving 2 hunter valley. everyone was vy pleasant 2 c our accomodation there. itz those kinda wooden log cabin which is vy nicely furnished & itz located in a vineyard! vy vy nice, erm if my family compared tat 2 the byron one. we were recommended 2 eat at this place called blaxland inn 4 dinner. oh, the pork chop is done in such a nice way tat itz still so juicy when it went into our mouth. the surrounding is juz so surreal (i forgot all about s'pore bcoz we will nvr get tat here...)

shall continue the rest of the days in another post...got 2 koon. itz still only fri & the dreaded month-end is here again :(

i miss my south bank, surfers & shopping...
