I’m so proud of my lil' Suzuki Baleno, who did not fail me during the 6 hours of driving yesterday... but it did prove to me 1 thing... my car is not a fuel economy car... it drinks petrol like water..
Anyway, we decided to go on a road trip to Hyden, the place where "Wave Rock" is suppose to be... it's about 350km away from Perth, and it'll take 3-4 hours of driving to reach there.. I experienced driving 110km/h on the country roads, turning bends at 90km/h, driving in total darkness and it's the longest drive I’ve ever had! To and fro, total about 6-7 hours of driving! But the treat at the end of the day was rewarding enough, Hog's Breath! Awesome!
I shall not mention what happened to Jill, or else my neck will be falling...
We had to past by 3 towns to reach Hyden... Brookten, Corigini (I think...) and Kondini... they are really "town" towns... from what Colin said, Kondini hold a population of 400 people, almost equivalent to 1 HDB block. How small is that? I bet the other 2 towns aint any better... but things sold there are fucking EXPENSIVE! They’re out to "ketoh" travelers...
Long hours of driving is really taxing not only to the body, but also the mind as well... i was kinda dozing off on the way back, swerving right to the opposite lane.. Luckily Felix noticed it and stop for a break... *phew* well, the entire trip was fairly ok... for me; it was the exploring of new stuff and the enriching experience we had...
