Finally after 2 or more so hours on the mini van, watching bits and pieces of shenzhen; parts of the terra firma which i have never seen before.... im pleased to announced that...
*holler* WE ARE HERE! *holler*
haha, take in a deep breath of the salty balmy breeze and soak in the sunshine! As the van drove to a halt, everyone was so glad to come out from the rickety rackety van. Guys and girls in shorts and tees, hastened their bags to their shoulders and jumped out of the vehicle.
As i stepped down from the van and walked alittle up the slope, i saw the whole seaview.
Tranquility.
The whole place had this laidback atmosphere which puts me quickly at ease and a sense of calm although i was still abit apprehensive when thoughts of the little hut's toilet came to my mind. I shall quickly chuck those moments aside for now! Truly, these few months had passed by like a blink of an eye but not without stress and many late nights. I keep telling wj that from May to October, there isn't any public holidays for us and we really must take a break cos although it was only july, i already felt like a overly stretched rubberband.
My little get-away was way overdued.
Hammocks were swaying in the wind and there were a few young lads half naked walking abouts. Dogs overturned and laid on their backs for me to rub their tummys like i was some kind of familiar face. I think they must be very used to strangers by now. i scratched afew and decided that it was enuff. Never know how clean these dogs are. Chances are nil. Keys were given out to us by now. Whoppee. Let's take a peek!
After putting our things down, we went to the seaside, without hesitation, wj jumped into the sparkling waters leaving me by the big umbrella, slapping on cakes of sunblock, and i was wearing my hat and sunnies, just incase the SPF50 sunblock doesnt work. If there's one thing in life which i have learnt, it will be: We must always have backup plans.
After about 3 hours or so in the hot sweltering sun and gotten myself a new spanky green swimwear. Notice i didnt say bikini! cos i didnt buy one! haha i got myself a sporty bra top and a little skirt in limey green! woooo......and just for the price of $30RMB. CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP.
After all that sun, wj and i decided to join the rest of the other guys at the cafe hut who have long abandoned the sun and sea for a cuppa ice cold beer. *slurps*
But hey, im really not ready for alcohol so early in the day! and thanks for the invite guys! wj and i decided to opt for a cuppa hot milk tea instead.
ever heard of ....心静自然凉.... you get the point.
and the silky milk tea came in such pretty petite plastic cups and pot. So lovely! make my day even cherrier. I just simply lurve pretty little stuff along the way to brighten everything up!
okie, will tell you gals more on dinner later....keep tuned in!
these are the little wooden huts which we stayed overnite in. very minimal with almost clean white sheets (i found a few strands of long hair! So tells me that...okay before me it was a woman, if not must be some wacky hiao hiao man!!!) on top of 2 very hard supersized single beds, a barred up window with green panels, a squatted towel bowl, okay wouldnt even fit saying it's a bowl. So it's a squatting pan, yah that was the word which i was looking for. Yah so i peed in a pan. EWWWWWWW! and on the side of the wall was an attached shower. So close to the squatting pan that when i move im so afraid that i will stuck my foot in it! So it was a very very very small toilet, kinda like the ones which u see in maids' toilets. Hmm, maybe mine was even worse than theirs. So the most fortunate thing that the hut had was hot water and AIRCON! and oh.... we had a black cockroach visiting us that afternoon too.
*fingers XXX*
