WOW, i had never seen so much SAND in my LIFE before!!!
its like patches of grass everywhere...
and sand, sand BUT SAND EVERYWHERE!
COOOOOOOLLLLL!!!
and our motive for coming here was to slide down the sand dune. (or wadever its supposed to be called)
some kind of "sand mountain" la. lol.
very high!
and everyone who wans to slide down the "sand mountain" had to climb it with the sliding board, barefooted.
damn tiring.
cos the sand was damn soft, and the slope was damn steep.
and the sand is damn hot!
tiring.
mummy hogged up everyone climbing behind her..
cos she's old liao...
cant climb fast. lol.
poor thing.
cant help her cos i was already on the summit of the "mountain" le..
and i cant go down cos i think i will roll down instead.
anyway, was damn scared to slide down the sand mountain...
cos its really high and steep!
and im scared of heights!!!
so the ppl helping us to start off before sliding down the "slide" forced me to slide down.
he jus pulled the front of the board up and it automatically slide down! (its supposed to be liddat)
and i wasnt prepared at all!!
then so much sand entered my shirt, shorts, eyes, ears, mouth, nose!! EEW!
and i tasted the sand! its crunchy!! YUCKS!
my whole face was covered with sand la?!
zzz.
anyway, its fun although i had a bad ending down the "slide". =x
after that, took the bumpy ride back to the resort.
and i quickly took an hour long bath.
i din care about my other sisters who were waiting for me to finish bathing.
lalalala~! xP
and of cos, im so sunburn after paying a "visit" to the desert. ><
then had a long break from 3pm to 6pm. :D
slept awhile in the hotel before being rushed down for dinner.
my dinner was buffet style and i was practically eating cakes, cakes and more CAKES! xD
WAHAHAHA.
after dinner, went for dolphin feeding at 7pm.
the sand so damn cold sia..
pair up with elder sis cos we are of about the same height..
so if we were to be washed away by the sea, the chances of us being dragged down together is about the same. haha. =P
so we queue up...
then was damn nervous when it was our turn.
we had to wash our hands in a bucket of dunno wad stuff..
our hands were warmed up already.
then went to the next bucket to get a fish.
eww, so gross la. ><
then i held my sis's hands and walked into the sea.
the currents was really strong la..
then i was so soaked by the sea water lorr..
each of us was given 2 tries to feed the dolphin!
so cool!
they are so cute! but kind of scary to feed them la..
cos they are circling around us! then i cant get the fish into their mouth.
and the coolest part is that i felt the dolphin's teeth!
