We went to Rottnest Island on Wed with no intention of staying overnite but end up doing so as not doing so wld mean staying there for 4hrs only. Somehow one way or other, we ended up taking a 1130 ferry(aud50) insead of a 1000 ferry and the return tick we got was at 430pm instead of 6pm. So when eve's friend Garry finally reach the island(he bought e ferry tick frm the other coy hence resulting in us taking diff ferry) he suggested staying over nite. We went to find accomo aft renting bikes(aud$26) for a day, and got a room in Rottnest Lodge(aud$60 each) den call the ferry coy to change out return tick which luckily we were able to do at no other costs. Then we finally began our excursion around the island but it was already 3plus aft lunch.
We cycle for a while, went back to the 'mall' for dinner then went for a moonlight ride around the island(against my wishes!! haha) It was so freaking cold with the wind blowing, we dun have bicycle lights, there are no st lights around the island, the only light that enable us to see was from the cresent hangin up there apparently laughing at us. I was lazy and didnt want to explore the place hence i asked them to ride back w me then they can go on on their own which they agree. ahh.. kids!!! They have unlimited energy.
I went back, took a hot water shower and emerged myself under the blanket and watched 'Travel n Living' n 'miami ink' n 'LA ink' on tv while they were gone. Really felt like an old woman. But this was what i wanted to do.
Next morning went for breakfast at the lodge(FREE) and it was real good. Haha.. Felt like kopping some of their crossiants for lunch but think it was quite hard. Then we went for a ride around the island. Ahh... I just wanna explore the island slowly slowly but they are like madman rushing everywhere.. CMI ahh... They keep saying no time, must faster. I was thinking, wats the pt? Rushing everywhere and not seeing anything. I cldnt be bother and took my time wheeling my bike, stopping now n then to take some picts and cld see they wasnt too happy bout it. But this is MY HOLIDAY and not a biking excursion around the island. So, like tt lor. I kept asking them to go ahead and ignore me, i will follow up, somehow. But well....
In the end, we finally got back to civilisation, waited for the ferry with my Afogato from DOME (they are everywhere but no STARBUCK nor COFFEE BEAN can be seen), back to Frementle port. Had the chilie mussels, fish&chips and oysters(yummy)! It started raining aft our late lunch and we took a bus to GardenCity for shopping as this is the only place that open till 9pm on Thursday. The only late nite shopping avai in Perth. Went there only to realise that i'm left w just a hundred dollars!! Oh no!!!
But we still continuning shopping, window shopping. Finally went back at about 8.30pm, reach eve's place at 10pm, and slept before 12pm. Too tired to wait.
Think my c.c will be put to good use later on. Going to Frementle Art n Craft Mkt later. Need to find a money changer first!!
