pr0ning....

Woops......I meant PRAWNING. Sudden impulse brought my family and my Sister's family to The Entrance for the weekend. We bought our fishing gear, swimmers, and most importantly, our prawning gear (Which we quickly repaired with dental floss). We drove to The Entrance and stayed at this motel which was literally a stone's throw from the beach. We dumped our stuff in our rooms, put on our swimmers and walked out our back door straight onto the beach. I've never seen my Dad go so crazy before. We even convinced my mum to get into the water with us. We could barely stand up, not because of the waves, but because we were watching my mum get knocked onto her ass the whole time! hehehe

Later that night we put on our swimming gear and waded into the water around midnight and stayed in the water for about 3 hours. This is the first time i've actually been prawning and i caught prawns!! I guess we were impatient and we went into the water before it was time so our batteries started to die when most of the prawns started coming out. We made do with the little pocket torch i bought long with me. Despite the lighting problems, we still netted a few dozen prawns, half a dozen fishes and one crab! Good thing it was us catching the crab and not the other way around..... *OuCH* This must be the first time i've had seafood for breakfast! AHEAHEa

Anyway, it looks like we might be going back again some time soon......this time we'll be more prepared! BTW i think i'm sunburned again...
