last weekend i went for a raod trip to Harvey Bay & Fraser Island. 9 of us went which consist of 3 girls and 6 guys. it took around 3 rounds to reach Harvey Bay as there were traffic jams. we also did miss a turning. when we reached Harvey Bay it was already 5pm. so after we went to our luxury townhouse to leave our stuff there we start searching for places to eat. we went to a chinese restaurant which totally sucks with the services. so guys if ur going Harvey Bay don't go for the 'Malaysian Chinese Restaurant'. i did not took any photo as my friends didn't want too. basically we were not fully fed. the veges and meat are too little. the rice is $2 per bowl. the girl that served us told us that the rice per bucket was $2 but it turn out to be a mistake. she even told us that she's new and she doesn't know anything. i was 'WHAT?' they should ask someone who are at least more experience to take order and standing beside to learn. this means that the boss was lousy in training. so can't blame it at the girl.

basically this trip is kind of expensive. sigh... which means that im poor at the moment. haha... the car we rented for 2 days cost $145 each, $185 for the luxury townhouse, $145 per person for the Fraser Island day trip. it's really really expenisive. hopefully my mum won't find out about the price if not i'll sure be nagged and scolded (Janice better do your part!). if the place your staying like Sarawak, its not worth going because its all forest, beaches and lakes. we sat in the bus more than playing out. but the Lake Mckinzey was nice. that scenary is so beautiful and you get to see sands on the lake. we did not played at the beaches because it was dangerous as Fraser Island is famous with sharks surrounding it. but its a blue blue ocean with people fishing. we ride along the beach which is a whole new experience. the road at Fraser Island was bumpy and only 4WD is allowed to the island. luckily we did not drive there if not we wont' be able to get out of the island. it's too complicated.

here are some of the photos (Joyce at last i've got the time to post it):

    Hey! Wow, you guys were quite a big group, that's awesome! I loved Fraser Island, went there twice. The second time was with my family, and we went with the same bus tour. The guide we had was really funny though, so that made up for the long time spent inthe bus.

    Looks like you guys had a good time though!! :) PS I think the boat begins with 'M'.... I can't remember the name either!! ;P
