(D) Day 165: roadtrip day 2 and 3

Simple breakfast setup

"Lets goooooo "

Abbey CHURCH. We were lucky it wasn't crowded that day

College for the boys in the past

Photo time

Perfect portrayal of the golden outback. Red dirt, blue skies, green fields

Random pit stop to take photos.

Another random stop cos the view was beautiful. We stopped the car one side and were ready to cross the road to get to the rail track when one car pulled up beside us. And he asked "is everything alright ?" . So sweet :') Faith in humanity.. and he actually turned back for us, and he turned back and continue his way. And throughout the whole trip my boy kept imitating that guy's accent 😂

Finally reached our destination, Dowerin, after 2 hrs. The tin dog sculpture was built by High school students in an attempt to attract visitors to Dowerin and it sure did !! Me and chew went all the way there to snap pics of it. Sadly, we didn stay or spend in that town

Cute grumpy bear biscuits that we were so amazed by

This is the view we see when we are driving by. So beautiful :') this area will be filled w wildflowers in July to Oct. Can't wait to be back. Gonna be so amazing

Another 2 hrs drive to Quairading to see the Pink Lake !! Sadly, the sun was setting so it wasn't pink... the Pink color is caused by the shrimp/micro organisms living inside ! So it's not pollution or anything.

By the time we came back from the pink lake, it was 4.30 and the shops were closing alr .... we wanted to check in but the hotel only opened at 6 !!! With nothing to Do, we just chilled in the car

Unglamorous side of road tripping. We were so tired already..

Finally we could check in to our tiny room. It was 55/per room and it was shared toilet. It was really cheap but rundown. Its guests were mainly construction workers for the construction of Quairading. Anyway funny story, cos we didn use the toilet properly last night, and we both needed to shit. But there was no toilet paper! ! And we tot, ok maybe we need to bring our own since it's a cheap hotel and stuff

So the owner was outside talking to this guy for so long and I finally went up to her and ask her, "there's no toilet paper. Can we buy some from u? " and I think she was also shocked and said that they provide.toilet paper but it ran out and I laughed like.he'll. I was so embarrassed 😂😂

At night, we just watched once upon a time while cuddling each other till I fell asleep... :') simple moments like these I will miss

Woke up at 8 and was ready by 9.. but guess what ? The hotel only opened at 12pm! !!!! So we couldn't check out till then😑 we tried knocking every door, but no one answered. Sian. So we went back to the Pink Lake ! It was slightly pink on the right (but not that obvious as the one in kalbarri ) and blue on the left. This was an unedited pic taken from my phone.

Using my secret edtting tool (😏) the previous photo turned to this. Nice right ??? So pics on insta are definitely not what it seems 😂😂😂

Aerial view of the Pink Lake from Google !

Damn ridiculous cos it was only 10am at that time so we went back to the hotel to waste time and watch tv in the common area. Q a basic setup (toaster, microwave, free food) for the price we paid !

Wasted more time by trying to take ootds. Anyway Quairading is a small town and it wasn't meant for tourists. This whole trip, most of the places we went to aren't for tourists so it's really local and non commercialised which I love. So there were no shops /sites to see and we were so boredded

Had brunch at 11.30am since we still couldn't check out, at this small but humble cafe. Our cheapest proper meal here!!! It was $36 for 2 mains and 2 drinks, which is really cheap for Aus. Guess that's the good thing about visiting non commercialised places. And I mentioned that I've been the fattest in my whole life and this boy finally saw it first hand !! So fattt 😭 must be the milkshakes cos I've been drinking a lot of milkshakes here in perth dk why.. now my motto "say no to milkshakes"🙅

So we went back to the hotel at 12, and they were out so we could only check out at 1230. LOL... so we are finally checked out and ready to hit the road again

Finally we reached the historic town of York! I have always wanted to go there but my friends didn want to so I'm glad we went there !! It was sooooooo beautiful. A mixture of old buildings, with the hills, the trees, the red dirt, PERFECTTT! It reminded me of europe somehow

Nice buildings

Ootd opportunities everywhere! Anyway I was tying my hair for the whole trip like this and forgot about it till I saw the photos he snapped for me. So paiseh

Ooooo 👀👅 nice view. Who's that handsome boy ? Am I lucky or what ?😉

More nice buildings..

Went to a suspension bridge (on his snapchat)

Tiny me on Mount Brown Lookout in York !!!

Wow

Us

Yay

I was completely blown away by the view. And its only 1 hr away from Perth !!! Didn't take much photos cos they don't do justice to the view. I didn expect it to be sooooo nice

Wow? ???

And with that, we ended our 3 day roadtrip to WA' s golden outback. It was super pretty and definitely the best road trip. Not just cos of chew, but cos every thing I saw was so beautiful !!! We came home and cooked salmon and beef with cream sauce and had a simple dinner and had a good rest. Poor boy didn't sleep during the drive. Love times like that :)

I miss so many people now. The ones who I was so close to. 

My only poly friends: TMS. We used to be so close, talking and spamming everyday. 
My ex colleagues: L, J, YY, P, A etc.. the ones whom I started out the job with, the seniors who guided me.. things always change when u see them going out without u (aka bojio)  
My favourite used to be couple: A,Z. The ones I used to do shit with.. midnight adventures.. sigh. 
My clique, MISFITS, of cos. I miss going out with them.

My other clique, FOS, we went to hk tgt. It was all good and we had so many nights and fun together... 
My ex housemates in Perth: J, J. Anyway. So funny. Cos all our names start with "J" 😂 My sis always call us J4 (instead of F4).😂

Then again, I'm surprised I even had that many friends and people I miss.
