Berpantai = Beaching (Azizi, 2008) =)

YEAH IT IS SUMMER RIGHT NOW!!!

St. Ives... How to describe this place?? Beautiful... Beachy maybe the right term sandy... Breath taking... Fun.. Wonderful... Cool... well there you have it all the good terms that I can think of to describe a place. Well this post is a little bit late because I think I already been there twice before I can write about that beautiful place huhuuhh....

The first trip I went there with all the seniors of Cohort 3 (Apek, Bob, Nedd, Warid, Jiejie, Faiz, Kak Yuni, and Kak Wani) and the second trip I went there with my fellow housemates (Yuni, Basir, Arif and Abang Edzlam hehhe dia nk ikut jugak huhhuu). Both trips started with a journey to the train station from Marjon by taxi hehhehe. We took the 9.28 am train to St. Ives...and the journey was 2 hours (so..so.. lah)... Well a little bit tiring actually..because 2 hours in a train without doing nothing imagine that... We spend most of the ride sleeping . After that we stop at St. Erth for a transit train to St. Ives....just a 10-15 minutes ride as I can remember hhuuhhu.... From St. Erth to St. Ives the view was superb!!!!! Imagine taking a train that move along a beautiful coastline with sandy beach and blue ocean (or green I just cannot decide which colour it was). When you reach the St. Ives train station the moment you step out from the coach you can smell the salty sea...or even taste it huhuhhu.... well for us we went straight to the beach (as the beach was very near to the train station). There were lots of people on the beach and his make me wonder does these Mat Sallehs doesn't go to work or what??? Because, both trips were during the weekdays...but the beach was crowded and it was pretty hard to find a place for ourselves huhuhuu... Well then what's more??? we plunge ourselves to the cold water uhhuhuhu... Don't get your selves fooled by the sunny weather... it doesn't help to heat the sea a little bit huhhuh the water were still cold.. it was just like you were jumping into a tub full of of ice hhehehhehe very cold indeed my friends very cold indeed ... well at least we have the experience diving into the North Atlantic Ocean hehhehhhehe Although it was very cold.. if you can just bear with it for a few minutes you will be okay....at the end you body will get use to it after that, trust me...

After we have ourselves experience the coldest sea ever we went back to the beach to get warm back... sunbathing lah sikit2 hheheh but with the clothes on huhhuhhuhu then we tuck in!!!! MAKAN MAKAN MAKAN MAKAN hhehehehehhe Below are just a few pictures snapped by Nedd (Thanks ye Nedd your camera did a good job huhu kamera mahal lah katakan)

Yes.. guys as you can see we were enjoying ourselves Nasi Lemak Ayam and a special Strawberry Cake made by Kak Syafwah.. the Ayam Goreng rempah was made by me.. using the previous recipe that I have posted before hhehehehhe...

After eating and cleaning ourselves we perform our solat and then we went for a stroll in the small town.... Bought some souvenirs and Ice Cream huhuhu.. the town is very small you can just walk....no need to take the taxi because it is very near with the beach heheheh In the small town there were lots of shops selling all kind of vintage stuff... like handbags.. very cute ones... I almost want to buy a handbag for someone... but Kak Syafwah grab the bag that took my interest first huhuhhuh yelahkan siapa cepat dia yang dapat kan..... Now, below are some of the pictures while we were praying and during our walks in the small town in St. Ives hehehhehe





Then after enjoying ourselves there ape lagi balik lah hehhehe....so we went back to Marjon after that. Yes... both trips were great and I'm looking forward to another one hheheh next year I am going to bring the juniors there... they will like it.....
