was a fantastic trip as we'd went canoeing and swimming during the day and even tried on ATV the next morning. this was my first attempt on the ATV and the experience was great esp on the uneven grounds haha!

dinner was superb as well bcos most of us went down to the kitchen to cook our best dishes. mine was curry chicken but was prepared by choong mama cos hor i nid2 go wrk earli morn ma so thot no time to prepare it upon arrival ma heez.

bro prepared ngoh hiang and fried yang taufou, jessie prepared baked beanie wif sausages and dessert, ah ling prepared spagetti wif ham and mushrooms in tomato based and josie prepared a unique dish - banana wrapped wif bacon and dipped wif honey.. it was very nice!

we skip chris for the cookin dis time cos he always cook for us and we thot of lettin him to try our skills but unfortunately he fell ill tat nite due to food poisoning so was in his greatest appetite to try the dishes.
afterwhich, he took some medicines and went to slp. lucky he was fine the nxt morn to join us for the ATV.

after dinner, all of us felt basically like gluttons cos we are damn full and there were much leftover too. tink we're too excited to show off our cooking skills tat day wahahhaha nah jus jokin la! then we sat at the sofa to watch tv for awhile then continued to play my favourite Risks! winner for that night is Bro cos his soldiers is accummulated until scary lor haha! mayb dis is wad we call strategy ba.
