Day 3 - Sunshine Coast & Noosa Road Trip

Day 3 - Home Sweet Home

we din really sleep for the nite. hence, it was a horrifying experience in waking pple up ah. had to drag pple out of bed, taking away their blankets and pillows. use the camera to take their photos to kick them out of bed & ended up we r still behind scheduled departure time!

while the lazy bums tried to wake up and wash up, i cleaned up the place & Fiona took some photos of the whole chalet. heehee... i reckoned tat tis is quite a cosy stay but not 100% flawless as there r alot of mosquitoes! hahaha... part and parcel of getting bitten along such trip, i guess.

tis is the queen size bedroom... Fiona & I shared tis room...

the messy bulk room where Philip, Isaac & Charlotte r in...

tis is the dining area and living room. quite cosy feel, esp with tat comfy sofa...

tis is the kitchen... small and simple...

finally at abt 9pm, we r ready to set off. our supposedly itinerary was to go Maze, strawberry farms, ginger factory and nutworks. but with tis timing, we can only choose one or 2. watever it is... let us settle our breaky 1st!!!



Breaky @ Moondoggy's Cafe Bar


...located along the stretch of shops facing Noosa River... nice view and good ambience leh...


Fiona's order was Hazelnut & Chocolate Trout.... raisins & nuts... yummy~!!!

Charlotte's breaky was the Carrot cake...

Philip's order of the Pancakes Islander... i like tis pic very much, it looks like those pic on the menu or gourment magazine...

my choice of Chocolate Brownie... kinda dry but is still yummy!
after some discussion with all, we decided to head down to the Ginger Factory, Nutworks and Strawberry farm. forgoing the Maze then. hmmmm...
