This day is another slow one..It pretty heart warming and lovely.
However, at the end of the day, I was on angst, which I will explain why as we move along..
I was brought to eat buffet at this family restaurant..
not much of a mention when the food is just normal~
The plan was to head down to Marilyn's Home Town and visit her mom at the retirement village ^_^
Left is Marilyn and right is her mom, Aunt Leila
Don't they look alike?!
Aunt Leila is a wise woman. She is a book writer. and bakes pretty much.
her place is very well kept and she is very independent in this cosy house of hers.
I admired her. Being at this age and so self sufficient.
When we told Marilyn how wonderful her mom was, she just replied us with a wistful smile: "Is she?!"
this view is located just outisde the retirement village
These birds were on the dining table.. and I cant help but snap pictures of them..
and of cuz posted the best one ^_^
-Welcome to the house of Aunt Leila-
Do you believe that this is just a retirement home?!
no right?!
Aunt Leila stays in this house by herself.. with other houses around of course ^_^
its so far fetched from our pathetic old folks home la!
Its just like another house on the street. Well maintained by themselves.
a small garden for the retirees to plant anyting they want
When I get older and no one to take care of me..I would like to reside in a retirement home like this.. ^_^
After the amazement of this place, we head on to Mornington!
Marilyn insists we have to come to the beach..
and I loved it alot..
the view is breathtaking and i cant stop taking pictures!!
The clear waters.. almost similar to Redang
The Sky and Sea is comparable to the scene I see on my cruise
❤
Even boats have parking lots..
Many peeps fished at the pier.. and the stone chairs are lovely
it is a wonderful place to chill for the afternoon.
I suggested having Fish & Chips which I spotted along the way for dinner..
But the old Myke says: "Neh!" We go home! =(
I din know 7 eleven have their own petrol kiosk!
When we reached home.. I was disappointed and my mom noticed.. so we told the old folks we will be walking to COLES for a walk.. since its still very early in the evening
Pink headed bird on the park. =)
@COLES
It has became my favorite supermarket as there are so many things to see and buy..
so many new things to discover too!
Chicken flakes in a can like Tunas..
Egg sections
*Cluck*
These are spread that goes with bread..
who say it has to only be jam and butter.. ^_^
While shopping at COLES and making the staff busy when assisting us, Marilyn came as a surprise to us!!!
she drove here and told us she was worried we might lose our way, especially when its getting dark..
Awwww how sweet!!
I was hungry.. I told my mom I wanted to eat...
so we went to La Pochetta again!
(well its only across the street =P)
this time I tried this Bread Chicken with cheese!!
the portion is HUGE! and importantly delicious
We ordered a small Hawaiian Pizza too
In between Marilyn kept fidgetting as to whether she should call Myke.. and their conversation went like this
Myke: Where are you??
She: I came to find Mari and Hazel, now we are at La Pochetta
Myke: What?! at La Pochetta?!
She: Yes they were hungry..
Myke: you did not tell me you left the house!!
she: I did!
Myke: No!
someting like that and she came back to the table wistfully.. telling us all about it.. hahaha
I was so hungry I finished what we ordered! maybe because of my earlier disappointment too.
Myke wanted us to eat left overs from the day before... and I told my mom that I did not come here to eat left overs! I was pretty pissed..
Well what to do.. I am the 'pampered zeh' of the house.. *BLEAH!*
