the dolphins!

This post is actually a cape may part 2. Our sole purpose of going to cape may is to go for dolphin watching. Watching dolphins in their natural habitat! Cool har. The best part is that we picked the sunset dolphin watch which includes complimentary pizza and hotdogs. Wahahaha.


Not very impressive. Haha.

There were certain parts of the journey whereby the waves were really strong that we could not even stand properly. Quite exciting though. Like a roller coaster. Haha.

Hmm the dolphins look kinda like shark fins sia. Blah. We really saw a lot of dolphins but they were all too fast for us to capture any clear photos. All of us were very funny. When the captain said there were dolphins on the left side, we would all flock to the left and frantically taking pictures. Just like little kids. The feeling of watching animals in their natural habitat is so different from watching them in cages or enclosures.

This is the famous cape may lighthouse. Hmm I don't know why it is famous too.

This is a ship. Or rather this was a ship. It is called the atlantis. But i think this is not the very famous atlantis. 50 years and it is still sinking slowly into the sea.

We had a nice view of the sunset. So romantic. So postcard-ish too.

Let's end off this post with a group photo. Yeah, I heart this trip.

Niagara Day 3!

Day 3 is an entirely shopping day.

First stop: Steve & Barry's

We went to this store near Niagara called 'Steve & Barry'. The stuff there are damn cheap. We bought a skirt like for only USD4. Keke.


A whole stack of tees. Only for the guys though. There are all sorts of colours and designs. So many! Alot of those have funny wordings on it. The guys had a hard time choosing which to buy from the many choices!

Next stop: Boulevard Mall

We are all set and excited about this second stop because there are Abercrombie, Hollister and American Eagle stores in this mall. Oh we are not as excited as Mugant though. Haha. These 3 brands machiam like part of his life.

The Hollister store is nice right. I think the deco is very cool. But the lightings are so dim that I couldn't really see the colours of the clothes.

Anyway... the climate of the day was when we saw this on our way to the mall.

Final stop: Krispy Kreme

We literally went mad. Screaming and yelling in the car. Well, after so long, we finally got to taste KK.


Posing for Hollister and KK. :)

Too sua ku liaoz so must take more pics. After trying so many, i still prefer the original glazed. Shall buy some back home provided that we can find a KK store somewhere near JFK airport.

Conclusion

The few KK donuts ended our trip and once again, we set off on a 10 hours journey back to Wildwoods. We are so shag by the time we reached lahz. Nevertheless, we still must take more pictures. Haha. Esp when we were so amazed by the amount of stuff that the guys bought.

Look at all the stuff the 8 of us bought. So scary -_-"

The guys won. I think they really spent quite a lot. But Tommy thrashed us all with the 3 Coach bags that he bought. Haha. Mugant looks so funny in this picture. Hehe.

Carrying a lot of our barang barang.

Group photo. I enjoyed this trip :)

Stay tuned for more updates. We still have so much to tell! *winks*
