Part 2
My entry of the trip will continue below, but first yesterday was my dad's birthday so we went out of dinner today. The food was descent with the price they charged. I have had better but I wasnt feeling too good and so my eating was down a bit I think. I dont know what I ate yesterday that caused it. The salad or the ham and cheese bun (you will find out later)from the trip maybe.
Just watched Rebel Billionaire. Still attached to it although some nit picking: Richard's choice every episode some time contradicts what we see in the show. Also all the people that I want to go dont go. I have watched about 4/6 shows so far and each time the person whom I wanted to stay gets booted. Annoying. I may stay with it until the end. Onto other Real. TV, I just heard that Chip and Kim won the million on the amazing race. Its quite funny that survivor polls more viewers every season but The Amazing race wins all the awards.
Ok, I no you have been waiting on it so here it is - The Trip:Part 2
Day 2: 31 December
I woke up at 7, I dont know why, my body clock is annoying and stupid sometimes. I tried to get back to sleep but couldnt. The plan was to wake up at 8-8:30 and get out of there by 9:30. I got out of bed at 7:50, and went to lie on the unused queen bed. After lazing about some more, I went for a shower in the worlds smallest bathroom. I had my yummy breakfast of a uncle tobys muesli bar and packed up. We left the cabin at about 9:30. The Information center was pretty useful, we found out alot of things plus booked a boat cruise for NYE (that nite). After that we went bowling (we wasted alot of money I would say on food and activities we could do in sydney). After Bowling we decided to check out all the beaches in P.M. They were quite good. Some quite busy others not so. We checked in to our cabin in the new motel which was quite a drive from the town center. This was quite annoying which meant we had to get a taxi in that nite cos we would be celebrating the New Year. After Checking in to our huge cabin (we could have slept 10-12 people easily in there. This would have been quite fun, if you guys reading would have come. You know who you are), we went to Flynn's beach and sat in the sand for about 2 hours ( i think), then went back to the cabin, where Eugene slept, while charles and I got ready for the nite. Dinner was Chinese (fake chinese according to me), Charles the official chinese person said the food was quite good. It was quite expensive aswell. It cost something like $48 for three dishes and some rice. Of the three dishes the Rice (plain steamed rice) finished first.
I called up the taxi service to get a taxi for 8:20 so we would be 20 minutes early for the boat cruise which started at 9. A funny thing happened, I insulted the phone operator. I am sorry, (I think). I told her all the information about where, when and how many people there were, but she asked all the questions again. SO I told her that I already told her all this information and she got quite angry with me. After I put the phone down, I realised this wasnt the best path to tread, as she had told me that the taxi service was heavily booked and that we may be delayed. We didnt want to be delayed too much or else we would missed the boat. The taxi did arrive on time thankfully, (I think she wasnt too upset at what I said, I also could hear her talking over the radio in the taxi, which made me embarrassed slightly), the driver was charming and we gave him a $4 tip on the $16 fare. He was very happy and easy to talk to.
We got to the wharf at about 8:40 and just before we board the ship we watched all these middle aged people board the ship. All three of us were thinking "Are we on the right boat?". We waited, we discussed and definitely argued about the pros and cons of staying and going. We decided not to waste the $25 and go on the trip. It turned out to be a great decision. We had alot of fun on the trip and enjoyed it all. There was a bit of dancing a bit of drinking (champagne is funny stuff) and alot of phone use - sms, calling etc. After the boat cruise finished, we headed into Roxy's for a bit more fun. The place was packed, ( a cover charge of 15, which went to 20 by the time we left). We had a few drinks. Eugene and Charles were getting a bit drunk and so we left the place. We head back to the cabin, but had to wait for a taxi for about 30 mins. By the time we got there it was 3 ish. We decided to go for a walk along the beach to see the stars. We got back to the cabin at 4am. Then decided to sleep, well we talked again but I kept falling asleep.
