Trip - Part 1

Being the procrastinator that I am, I have put off this entry until now. What can I say?! This trip had took place almost one month already, sheesh....

But anyways, since some of them were pre type, it was copy pasting and uploading the pics...

This trip being the first ever self-planned trip in Oz, being the greedy person that I am I tried to fit everything in a 3 days and 2 night trip, I will tell you the outcome of the trip soon :P

Essential things for self-planned trip, good advise (comes in the form of my homestay Aunty), a car (public transport is kinda annoying when u are in a hurry), cash (unfortunately everything comes with a price) and loads and loads of time for planning, callings and reservations and confirmations. The last but not least, good vacation buddies!

Everything was going according to plan and all of us were having sleepless night prior the trip. The date of the trip was a bit off, since we tried to sync to Uni's semester break together, which does not work cause UW was two week later than us, in the end, we planned it on their break, cause me and Poh only have 3 days of classes.

The trip comes very dangerously close to being canceled when we found out the day before the trip that we are not allowed to rent to car, us being 3 weeks short of being 21!!!!! Bloody Hell!!!! So pissed wei, I mean canceling the trip would have been a big dissapointment already some more I have to pay the accommodation and all for last minute cancelation, *curses with words too vulgar to be displayed*. Why the the fella not tell me about it, in my defence we have scanned a copy of our driving license to them already, they approved it! Then on the day we when to collect it, they don't let us take the car, apa ini!!! At least, let me know earlier right!!!!

In the end, instead of having a car that could fit 5 person and all the luggage and supplies comfortably, we have to take m friend's sportcar which is a tad bit too small and too uncomfy for a 6 hour drive. But what to do, beggars can't be choosers; it's either the too small car or canceling the trip.


I will never ever forget the cramp, but I am grateful for this car.

The first day of the trip was to make it to Yanchep National Park. Made a few wrong turns along the way, cause there were road construction. With the help of the map and TY we made it to Yanchep in one piece, in face a little too early cause the visitor centre was not open, our first agenda of the day, a hike of apporx. 10 km.


Beautiful view, but watch where u step, the grass is littered with duck poop EVERWHERE!!!!!!


All so "semangat" before the whole thing....mana tau half way...haih!


We were told to stay on trail and to make lots of noise, cause the snakes are active during this time and according to the lady at the Visitor's Centre, some of them are deadly (Oh, my mum is gonna freak when she reads this bit, but I'm back in one piece)

All went well, when it started to rain in the middle of the walk, getting lost was the last straw, cause after 2 hours of hike we were told that we were not even half way through the trail (we called back to the centre for directions), everyone voted to turn back.


Exhausted from the trail (plus wet and sweaty)but with time to spare before our cave trail (Yes, we did QUITE a bit of walking that day)we decided to pay a visit to a chocolate tea house *squeels in delight*


The cave was the higlight of the day, none of the pictures we took could justify the sight that we show, planning more cave trips from now on. Margeret River is next on my list, I heard they have better caves there! Can't wait!

Oh don't worry, my day did not end here...There's still more...just wait. I just thought there is too many things to fit in and this post is already quite long.
