torquay!

as promised, this is the entry about my stayover at torquay.
we stayed in a beach house in this place called sunset strip (i think it sounds really cheery and beach-y, by the way). it had quite a country feel to it, since the interior was mostly wooden and it even had a fireplace!
i remember enjoying a nice homecooked meal of sweet&sour pork, cabbage with mushrooms, spam&bakedbeans omelette and roast chicken; watching 'welcome to the jungle'; playing cluedo, bluff and a**hole-daidee.. haha :) oh and nick & i went stargazing at night and boy, the whole sky was littered with specks of shimmery stars! it was just astounding, and what a sight to behold! i've never ever seen so many stars in the sky before.
most of our group woke up at 530am to catch the sunrise, but i, being the pig, decided that i would rather miss the sunrise than sacrifice 3 hours of sleep. but it's ok sherlynn captured it all on her cam. :P
we went to bell's beach after breakfast. bell's beach is a world famous surfer's paradise, and sure enough, there were quite a number of surfers when we went there.

the essential beach jumpshot.. i think it looks ad-worthy :)

after our wonderful day at bell's beach, we headed down to geelong to try the fish&chips at giligans', voted the best fish&chips outside melbourne. mmhm yumyum.. i like. value-for-money, too!


el and tiff love fish&chips!



thank God for the wonderful weather.. couldn't imagine how our trip would have dampened if it was raining or freezing cold. i loved every moment of the trip, but my face is now blotchy thanks to the intense sun rays. ugh :/
