The day before it all ends.
Woke up super early on a free Monday just to hand in my assignment. Can't believe they made the due time at 9am. I thought they were usually at 5pm? Anyhoos, i'm just glad this assignment went well. There was no rush and no late nights staying up completing the assignment. So yayy to time management and an awesome group mate :)

Since we stayed over at the Water Wheel, we got up early to head to the lighthouse. It was pretty gloomy and cold since we were surrounded by the ocean. We were just in time for the guided lighthouse tour. Lol and we kept laughing thinking about our disco ball the night before.
Two opposing waves crashing against each other. The Indian Ocean and the Southern Ocean.
This is the lens for the lighthouse. This whole thing alone costs AUD1,000,000! *faints. Apparently its handcrafted and made in Britain.We went to Lake Cave next. I still remember my trip to these pretty caves in Sydney back when i was a kid. Can't remember where it was but it sure was beautiful. The one we went was actually pretty small so the tour didn't last long, which was a real bummer. Would be fun to explore deep into a cave. Oh and i always liked those underwater caves which takes you in to some place deeper within. But i don't have a diving license and getting one would be awesome but mom thinks its unnecessary since i don't go diving much (or even at all) so nope, no license for me :(
We only had time for one but there's also the Mammoth Cave and the Jewel Cave.
The i-don't-know-how-many-hundreds-year-old tree.
There are about 300steps getting down to the cave.
That part is actually extended over the water.
Story of the cave; it was actually discovered by a 16year old girl by accident. She was out on her horse and suddenly her horse just stopped. So she got off and looked over and saw that really big hole. The cave used to be really more covered then. She went back and told her parents and it actually took her about 35years just trying to find that cave again. Btw, there were real crystals forming in the cave too. Small ones lah, but still pretty and shiny.
Next stop: Leeuwin Estate for more wine. Its a really big estate and i heard the owners are hell rich till the guys were wondering whether they had any younger daughters for them to date lol -___- Margaret River chocolate factory afters. This one really is in Margaret River, not the one in Swan Valley.
I think the next place we went to was called Busselton, can't really remember. We spent the rest of the day there until the sun set. Guys were fishing and Jimmy finally caught a fish! Haha first and only fish on the entire trip. But we had to throw it back cause it was too small. We saw a couple of people catching crabs and they were huge! The bait this guy used was dog bones..
This is the same place as Wu Zhang's blog header. The whole deck is like 1-2km and we wanted to walk it but it was closed for construction, so sad.
I have no idea what fish is that. It looked like a prettier version of a catfish maybe?
The RV kept dying during that night. We had to keep pushing and i helped! :) After that i just played photographer lol, not much of a help am i. We were in Bunbury by that time and being a weekend, the caravan parks were all full. So we were worried alot but thankfully, we managed to find one and got the RV running again. Until we got to the caravan park and it died again meh.
I made my bruschetta for dinner that night and arranged the tiny pieces of bread on the plate in such a pretty way hahaha. I miss Italian :( Haven't had a nice big meal in a while. Wondering where should i go hmmn. And you know i haven't had any western food here? Good gosh, the cravings! *cringes tummy
Btw, i realize i keep using the word 'pretty' a lot in this post ey. Forgive that, guess i'm in one of those moments haha. K, shall go prepare for this Wed's lab test. Ta!
