Studley Park

On my last day off I decided to go exploring in a different park. Well, it actually started out for food purposes...I wanted to have breakfast at The Boulevard which is in Studley Park. So, I figured I might as well walk before breakfast and then be able to enjoy breakfast guilt free. I also had LY's car since he was in China for a medical conference.

I wasn't sure which part of the park to start at so I chose the Boathouse (another restaurant). I figured since there was a restaurant there, it'll be a good place. I know, sounds like a stupid reason right. Oh, well. I was there rather early so mine was the only car in the carpark. I did see some people though so I wasn't too scared.

The bridge was the first thing I saw so I went across it. I encountered a biker and these:


I basically just followed the river and went along it. The river is lllooonnnnng.... Apparently there was a volcano explosion many years before that divided the river and resulted in the different rock kinds and this: It reminds me of the rocks along NKVE that mummy used to take SN and I to look at late at night.

I did make it to breakfast at the Boulevard. I has eggs benedict and a HUGE cup of coffee. I sat on the terrace outside that is directly next to the public golf course. There weren't that many people there cause it was a weekday. I didn't get to take photos cause...errr...very poshy poshy there. :) Can check it out here though:

Okay, maybe some of you are bored of reading about my birthday already. But the thing is, I have still been receiving presents in the mail and am feeling extremely blessed. So, the lowdown (in order of when received) of INTERNATIONAL LOVING:


#1 from Malaysia- Mummy's & SN's present via Uncle FC. The black lace top from M&S & the nice girly one from Naf Naf. I also received a Moleskin notebook that I've been wanting to get for ages but a bit expensive and multi coloured gel pens. YEAY!! (Mummy said that she's not sure if she or SN paid for the pens & notebook but she suspects she did). Mummy always gets me the nicest presents. Thanks ma (& SN although I'm not sure which part you contributed too..hahaha)


#2 from Oxford- A 'comic strip' of how Rob & I ended up in DTS and as friends. It actually came in a frame which broke on its way here :( It means a lot to me (the picture not the frame)


#3 from Switzerland- Kelda's amazing artwork & a bracelet & a 3 page letter. I miss you Kelda


#4 from Dorset- A jewellary box & card from Chris B. I can just imagine him shopping around for it after having to watch him shop around for gifts in Africa. *hugs*


#5 from Washington State- A top & bath salts from BFF Susan. She actually brought the bath salts back from Israel & then sent them to me here in Australia. The top fits perfectly! (Sorry, bad picture)



#5 from California- A HUGE box of sweets & a Sodoku & a story book from Annie. It actually came via priority mail and postage was exorbitant. Thank you SO MUCH. Especially for remembering how I love peanut butter M&M's & don't get them in Australia.

God, thank you for your grace.

I love you all & really miss you guys.
