Yes, we're Asian and we can speak English

Jenn and I went to Jervis Bay on Monday instead of the Blue mountains. Lucky for us the weather didnt let us down and we got to enjoy the most parts of our trip. We had no plans whatsoever, we had no idea what we were going to do or where we were going to stay and thats how our trip was, full of the unexpected.

Picked up Jenn at 8pm on Sunday night, but didnt start driving until 11pm because my car decided not to co-operate with me and the NRMA were having a  "busy night",  so supposedly it was a 90min wait for them. In the end my car did start without the NRMA, although now it seems like I've been seeing them everywhere...a little irritating.

We took the Grand Pacific "scenic drive" for the view, but of course, it being the middle of the night, there wasnt much of a scene, we did though spot some deers (???), a fox and some rabbits. Unfortunate for me, we didnt see any Emu... dratz. We arrived in Jervis Bay at 3am where to our surprise all the motels were full. We couldnt believe it, which lead to the phone calls. I called the 1st motel on the list~ I was greeted by a drowsy gentlemen who was obviously not please by my 3am wake up call...heh. Jenn  got a better response from the second motel which was full but did take the moment to direct us to a near by motel with vacancies.

4am...when we finally arrived to Nowra motel. We were getting pretty tired by that time (of course right?) The receptionist took his sweet time to open the door for us so we called sign in, but then of course it was the odd hours of the wee morning, but it was cold and miserable :(. He came to the door barefooted and half asleep. I was feeling guilty for waking him up, I think we both were from the awkward silence in the room and the lack of eye contact to each other. The receptionist was nice (super in fact) because he decided to give up the room for half price (hells yeah!).

Four and half hours of sleep later we were back on our way to Jervis bay. Totally bummed out that we couldnt trash the motel room a bit more...boo. Next time, next time :). Time to grab some brekky! During our little drive around Jervis Bay the night before, we spotted a little humble bakery that we HAD to go to for breakfast. In the morning we found the bakery packed to the brim and had a small and very simple breakfast menu, so that wasnt going to be good enough for us (at that time anyway). Found a nice Cafe Deli called Supply and had an amazing breakfast there.

Checked out this sweet shop called "Licketty Lick" where I took photos and bought a Hazelnut fudge bar which I have yet to eat. We witnessed the Anzac Parade..which really wasnt that exciting...not that Anzac day ever was for me...heh. Walked down to Hukisson Bay and took some photos. The area is just so peaceful, too bad we werent really dressed for the beach, I really wanted to just stroll through the waters, but it was a tad bit cold.

We spent the day driving around the Jervis Bay area, but really ended up back to where we had started in Hukisson Bay. There wasnt really much else than that town centre, but we happy after 2 hours driving around and not getting anywhere. Although most of the restaurants and shops were closing early because of Anzac day and most restaurants were full our lunch was very late and very light. It was nice just to finally sit and relax at the Bakery even if the weird old couple near us kept looking over at us...but I was too exhausted to care.

Throughout the day we noticed quite a few people looking at us, which felt really uncomfortable. Jenn and I can't figure out what it was, but we did notice people did seem shocked that we could speak English properly...how sucky that realisation was that most people assumed that we couldnt speak English because we were Asian. Any hows it just added to the fun to watch their expressions change ^^,

All in all, had an amazing time~ mainly just because I could hang out with Jenn again, we havnt seen each other for what felt like ages. Lots of laughter as always. We took heaps of photos, went to every available restroom every hour, had good use out of my navigator and my car. My car went well with no hitches (besides at the beginning), I'm very proud. On our way home we went to Maccas which seems like a ritual of ours, can't go home without going through a drive thru. Everything was just awesome awesome. After that trip, took me two days to recover, especially going back to work...so hard.
