picnic at Waitangi Park

Last Sunday weather sangat awesome ...panas memancar2 ...memang cuaca yang sesuai utk kuar rumah ....Kak Shidah always tell me dulu, masa aku mula sampai sini, yang kalau weather nice and sunny - harus kuar jejalan ...jgn perapkan diri kat rumah ....coz Welly on a good day is a sight to behold ..akan banyak hari2 yang mandom ...and masa tu nak terperap kat rumah pun takpe ...now I know what she meant! 


Plan for picnic actually last minute ..plan asal nak pesta tomyam kat rumah aku ...but my housemate ada plan buat potluck with her rakan senegara ...so takkan nak campur kan ...so i have to cancel le, so we plan for picnic at the park ajer ...on Sunday ...kebetulan semua orang free ....which is so jarang2 berlaku kalau last minute plan ....but last weekend was successful ...masa discuss tu pun dah overexcited hahaha ...

pesto dip tu sedap ....with rice cracker

i woke up lambat hahaha so my food plan changes hahaha ...i was out the night before for some music and dance with the salsa people ...which was fun ...and ended up bangun lambat ..so managed to text the girls utk lambatkan our meeting by 40 mins ...and rush downstair to make vegetable fritters (cucur sayur?) ...and at the same time sumbat fish fingers inside the oven ...so my food contribution for the day ....

vege fritters - dalamnya shredded carrots, celery, chilies, cabbages ..nak buat cucur bilis, but no bilis at home :-)


Ms. S yang mula nya plan nak buat sandwiches - with inti sambal sardin kalau tak silap - also has a change of menu hahaha ...and ended up with our current craze ...cronuts! love it ...also cream filling with sugary cinnamon on top ...


WE, being asians le kan ...carik tempat yang redup hahaha org lain gi tempat2 panas ..tengah2 park tu ..kami tak, carik yang bawah pokok ...pas 10 min sedar bontot suar basah ...coz the grass was wet ....kat tempat yang panas takde le basah ....biul sket masing2 ..takde sapa bawak tikar ke apa ke ...sebab last minute plan ...hehehe so, we move further out in the sun lah ....


the sun was shiny ...we even had to put on sunscreen ...coz tanpa sedar it can get a bit hot ...tak sedar coz at the same time kan windy ..so ingat sejuk ...but balik tu aku siap sunburnt ...the wind started to pick up speed halfway kitorang berpicnic tu ....and org pulak makin ramai ....since started to get sejuk and windy ...we decided to have a walk along the waterfront .....to lepak other places .....tak nak golek golek atas rumput dah ....and ended up kat Queens Wharf ...lepak2 and sembang2 semua ....then decided to lepak makan aiskrim and minum kopi ....


these three are my crazies here ...so supportive in time of need ...but fun and crazy as hell at other time ...

since the weather was nice, ramai gak le orang jejalan kat sini ....lama gak we all lepak here ...just talking, laughing and people watching ...and we just sat there tengok this view:



here people can hire the paddle ...but watching them paddling is more fun hahaha ..went back when it was getting too hot ....we are the fidgety type, takleh dok diam at one place for long ...pas tu siap gi check out the wall climbing place ...kat sini gak ...and not bad lah ....akan dicuba next time ....haritu, our pakaian tak sesuai :-)

Kan main hebat korang berpicnic. Dulu masa belajar asal summer aje bila makan pikul kerusi meja kat luar tapi letak tepi dinding aje sebab nak redup. Orang berjemur sakan kan. Kita cari tempat teduh jugak. Macam korang la kan, cari spot bawah pokok.
Cronut tu tebalnya. Mesti sedap tu.
