Lakes Entrance

.
My last post before I get leave on the jetplane! *hahaha* or so I wish! But I am leaving though, only not by jet. :D
.
Will be heading home to Kuala Lumpur this arvo, so I'm doing my last-minute packing, and weighing, and *darn overweight!* unpacking, repacking, and re-weighing! What a tiring procedure!
.
Anyways, as promised, I am gonna post pics on my recent Lakes Entrance trip :D
.

Mei and Dad, @ a town called Sale :D
One of the spots attractive enough for us to make a pit-stop. Hehehe...
.
We drove 5 friggin' hours to get to Lakes Entrance! But when we got there, it seemed like the pain-stakingly longgg and dreadful drive was kinda worth it after all! The beach was just wonderful! The lakes, magnificent! The only thing that was not-so-great was the weather! Kept drizzling, and occasionally... pouring :( Damnit! It just had to rain on the day we got there!
.
But none-the-less, we still got to do some looking around, and snapping pics when the rain stopped... The view... truly breath-taking!

Fun, Dad & Mei @ the Surf Beach.


Fun & Mom @ the beach, where the sand was soft, and white... NICEEEE


Pelicans!!!!! :)

Made me feel like I was in the cartoon "Nemo" Kekeke! The only difference was, I was not in Sydney! *Hehehe*

We attempted to take a walk along the beach to get to the "entrance" of the lakes... where they exit to the sea :D But the walk was supposed to be 4 friggin' hours long... which means... it's gonna take at least 8 hours for us to get there, turn around, and come back...

Nope! We were definitely not game enough to do that... :D Walked for about erm erm... 30 mins max, and decided to turn back. Hehehe. Besides, we've got better things to do! Hehehe

Fun, Dad & Mei @ the footbridge, connecting the "lake" side of land, to the "sea" side of land...

Gosh, this is one badddd description! But I'm kinda in a hurry now, and can't seem to find better words to describe them. So yeah! You get the picture... *hehehe* I'd take up offers from anyone who had better descriptions.


Mom, Fun & Mei, with one of the beautiful tree trunk carvings along the Esplanade.

We headed to Buchan, which was about an hour's drive, for some "nature" watching, caving, and other "healthy" activities.

Visited the Royal Cave, which was truly one of the most beautiful caves I've ever seen! I can't even describe how pretty it was down there! Jaw-dropping, seriously!! The photo doesn't do it justice, really! It's like... wayyyyy nicer than what you see on the pic.


The Hanging Octopus-es.

And last but not least,

A picture of the "entrance" itself :) With us, of course... *hehehe*

All-in-all, Mei had a greaatttt time, and I strongly recommend going there, if you guys ever wanna head to some place nice.

Okay, gotta go eat lunch now! Leaving in less than an hour's time... :D Woohoo!!
