We were in Northcliffe and stopped by this place where you could climb a dunno-how-many metre tree but it was definitely high. Only 5 people were allowed up there at one time but they all went up and then this ang moh wanted to go up too so he just went. That made it 9 people up there lol. I didn't want to cause i know it'll be really crowded up there so i just waited below and looked after everyone's stuff. Lol and there was a sign saying no thongs allowed and we were all wearing slippers. Hahaha bloody Asians ey :P


And then we went to this lavender farm to have lunch. The place was heavenly gosh. We actually wanted to cook ourselves but when we saw that they had a cafe there, we decided to try it out. Everything on their menu was yumms good! Except for the drinks lol. Pricey too but it was a once in a while thing. I took a lot of pictures there hehh :)

Its an alpaca! And a little duckie that wanted to be in the picture lol.My legs look so skinnyyy! At least that's one part of my body that looks good ahaha :P
Fresh lemons! We were allowed to take two each so we took a few back and made lemon squash.
Raspberry spider.
Berry pancake with hot berry sauce and ice-cream mmnn. It was so filling and the most i could eat was like a quarter. No one could/wanted to eat it for me. Such a waste sigh.
Hahahaha that sign is actually meant for the two below.
Lavender.

We travelled to Augusta next and stopped by a somewhere Falls. You know how back in Malaysia, you can go swimming at waterfall areas? Well we thought this was the same. So we changed into boardshorts and brought towels along. Passersby where looking at us and when we reached the signboard, it said 'lookout area' hahahahaha. Lee Hui was carrying a life jacket somemore. So everytime we saw people coming, we hid our stuff behind our backs. Good thing no one took their shirts off LOL.

I brought my flower down along for fun. Took pretty good pictures with it too.
We were going to see the lighthouse but it was closed just as we reached there. So we wandered off towards the Water Wheel which is just 5minutes away and took sunset pics.

A verryyy big rock pool.
Spot the crabs! Haha the guys actually tried catching them for dinner.
Dinner was at this Chinese restaurant called August(a) Moon and it felt nothing like Chinese -__- Was run by an ang moh okay and everyone dining there were ang moh. Guess they haven't had the real thing yerseh.

But of course, there was wine.

We searched for a caravan park and stumbled upon one that was new and had no management yet. It was a Friday night and we bought alcohol and was intending on having a great night. But since there were a bunch of people around, we couldn't. Our music was already like super soft and even the next-door people came up to us and complained ugh. So not fun and we all felt it. So we just charged up the RV and left.

I didn't know where we were going to next. All i know was we wanted a place where we could have a blast and not get scolded for it. And when i got down the RV, we were at the Water Wheel again. It was far from civilisation and dark with the starry night sky above you. What better place i say? Plus the winds were strong, being near the ocean and we had the lighthouse as our disco ball yo ahaha.

I was DJ for the night and we blasted the speakers like WAAYYY up high woots! The Midori ran out in 15mins so the only thing we could drink was wine. And that's where the Moscato comes in. We downed those from the bottle itself haha. I think we finished the Midori and 4 bottles of wine in less than an hour and a half. We were all still so sober so i guess we lost the mood pretty quick. It rained a couple of times too so that killed the mood abit.


Took out the pillows and blankets again and fell asleep stargazing. I couldn't stand the tarred road so i went back in the RV but there was no blanket and it was freaking cold! It was that cold till i was shedding tears alot (not crying okehs) and had to endure that for an hour brrr. I had to go back out and try waking someone that had the blanket. Victor didn't answer me even after poking him alot so the next person was Wu Zhang. Thankfully he woke up and gave the blanket to me :)

That night was truly a night to remember. How often do you hear people clubbing under the stars with a lighthouse as your disco ball? I'll answer that; never! Awesomeness to the max i tell you, extremely awesome. The highlight of our trip!
