Food, Food and more Food!!!

i have had absolutely no time to blog these past few days, its our tafe holidays so im trying to fit as much in as i can, which also includes sleep as well.

but i have tons of photos today! also woke up a little earlier so i could blog =D

well i left off from the beach last time. so i'll start back there.
we were hanging around the rocks most of the day
and was finally able to get the kite up, it wasnt as hard as we thought, the wind was just too strong last time, but it had some getting use to for the kite to actually stay up.
DAVES LAPTOP IS LAGGING SO BADLY
After laying around in the sand a little, and failed attempts to get into the freezing cold jellyfish filled water we decided to just rest
and saw something that was just so amazing..
i weren't able to take a better photo of it, but you could see it so much better with your own eyes.
everyone just stared into the water watching it and guessing what animal it was..
but i thought it was pretty lucky we were there at the point in time to be able to see it =)
on a side topic, my mums going to give me 2k to buy new camera gear =)
which would be awesome, im in need of a better lens
we have a wedding to go to in November and i offered to be the photographer
also asked for a spot for gillian too ^__^ cause we're a team =D

after the beach we went back to cabramatta and had dinner with rob at cooks hill, and the funny thing about cookshill is that you'll always see a friend there!

the other day we had planned to eat yumcha with kerrie, and jack but he ended up going yumcha with his own friends, so we brought along stanly and warren as well
i love yumcha, it is such a nice experience
but it does get a little boring going with the same people, only because we always end up ordering the same thing every time, so i suggest going with different people every so often, and different yumcha places as well

i love anything with egg custard in them, they are they best!
and these little guys were fresh and warm when we got it..
I LOVE EGG TARTS ^__^


Later that night we went to take my dad out to dinner cause it was his birthday.
we went to a new place in canley vale called dragon bowl, it had been open for a couple of months now and i knew the boss cause he comes to little star all the time to order coffee, so he is extremely nice to me =)
we ordered a small lobster, that still weighed in about 1kg which was fried in a spicy sauce with fried rice noodles.
i ordered abalone with chili and garlic and oysters with ginger and shallots
my parents ordered 2 portions of shark fin soup
and a dish of pippies in XO sauce
the bill came out to $295
and i only had 250 on me so my mum ended up paying the rest =(

it was nice tho, i was finally able to have at least a part of my family together, cause my brother wasnt there.. but he never really is anymore..

 
Sunday was suppose to be our beach day but that didnt turn out too sell seeing as it was raining!!
we ended up going to homebush pools tho and trying
it was the first proper time using my camera underwater..
the only bad thing is that there was so much clorine in the water that the paint peeled off..
but it still looks alright... i guess...
most importantly tho is that it still works!@@@! right =D
underwater photos are not easy to take..

it seemed like nothing really came into plan because when we got to the pools, the baby one including the awesome river pool and the slide were closed down due to poop being in the water, man it was so lucky we didnt get in that pool when we got there..
i feel so bad for the guys that had to scoop all the poopy out!!

but we ended up paying for the steam and sauna rooms.. i could not breath in them for the life of me..
and just when the river pool was re opened again (that one didnt have poop in it, but was still closed)
we had to leave!!!!! >=( cause dave wanted to watch 'the game'

after the pools and after dropping dave off we went to avoca woodfire pizza place to have dinner with song and loc =)
stanly ordered the fettuccine boscailoa
loc ordered the seafood marinara
i ordered the spaghetti bolognaise
cant remember the name to songs dish but it was penne with a rich creamy pesto sauce
kerrie had a chicken ceaser salad!

i had the opportunity to try all the dishes... LOL cause im such a pig.. but it was all really nice.. i loved stans one the most, but i think that they all had a such different tastes..
it was awesome........ lol

anyways i must be off, im running late.. again.. but i shall continue my food exploration soon!
