Girls night

Girls night was fun. While Marc was away in Sydney we girls had a great time watching dvds, pizzas and Wine! (this was on Monday). Today I had girls over and we watched enchanted and had dessert night. We had so much dessert it was like a buffet! Oh yeah cant forget my wine!! I am so in love with this Brown Brothers dessert wine...it is really yummy! I had it Monday and tonight cuz it was just so yum. Thanks to Yu Hwee who introduced it to me! I recommend everyone to try it! It is just so sweet and delicious it is probably like drinking grape juice or something similar.

On Monday, tried making my own pizza dough but then it didnt rise enough due to time so thank God I bought pre made ones just in case and all I did was put the toppings on top and voila Pizzas! I think my fav was with the avocado, ham, mushrooms, topped off with cheese...yummmm

We were crazy that night, I think it is because of the dessert wine but we only had one sip and Miche was red as ever! It was funny and a good laughing session. I've never laughed for so long in ages! It was so good to just let our laughter out and not worry about what others think! There is something when a bunch of chicks hang out together and they can laugh all night without knowing why?

Off road biking

Today Marcus and I decided to go off road biking because ever since Marc got his new road bike I've always been hassling him on how I want to join him. So, we decided to do something we both haven't done before and went off road biking!!!

I've never done anything in my life that is so tiring except for a 3 day tramp a few years back! The cost was 25 bucks for the bike hire and for entry fee. Every hour we did after was another few bucks. Many people brought their own bikes so this was actually a very enjoyable cheap saturday adventure for anyone that has thier own bikes and want fun.

Ok, first of all I didn't know that I had to change gear everytime I go up the hill and down the hill so basically for the first part of the 10 km route I had to get off my bike everytime I went up the hill because the bike could not move! I had to get off the bike everytime a steep hill approaches me because I was a chicken and I didn't want to fall off the bike! Half way through the journey my confidence grew and Marc changed my gear so that I didnt have to touch it at all but go all the way! I enjoyed it so much after that but still hassling Marc how long till we reach the end! It took us about 2 hours to finish that route and poor Marc had to go slowly to make sure I was alright!














It was a fun and new experience for me, something I thought we should do because life is too short and we just need to get out there and do something new!Check out thier website http://www.bikepark.co.nz/
















After biking, we went to Muriwai Beach and had fish and chips watching the sunset in the car because it was too windy to sit outside!
