Autumn Break is the best!!!!!!!!!!!!

AssalammualaikuM!!!

It's been so long since I wrote anything here... haha.. been very busy during the whole autumn break... its been very hectic and very fun...ld

One of it was the Autumn Camp...

The camp was held at Myall's Lake which is located above Newcastle from Sydney...

For 3 days 2 nights... we were deprived of civilization.. slept at a camp, bath at the lake without source from clean water...

1st day
We departed at 1.00am from Sydney...


A total of 5 cars and 1 van departed, it was quite a long journey... about 4 hours... we took a longer road to avoid the tolls, since it was early in the morning.. the temperature was very cold, 12 degrees celcius... woohoooo~ the coldest I've experienced yet...

At the Revival Station.. time to get some milk to revive ourselves~


The only Malaysian car... Proton Satria!! Malaysia Boleh!!


Tapi kena jump start la plak... battery kong.. haha... wat malu Malaysia je..


Kewajipan tetap ditunaikan... walaupon menggeletar kesejukan lepaih amek wuduk...



We finally arrived.... but... the camp is full... nNnnnOOooooOoo!!!!!!!!!


While finding a place to camp... we have our breakfast


Found a place... set up our camp



Very tired... everyone boom!! fell asleep...................


First activity there... to the beach... we played dodgeball, tried our best to beat the monstrous waves there... where we all failed... and bath at the lake.. the place we will be bathing for 3 days...




At the night, we have a barbeque there where the brothers cooked wonderfully very the delicious chicken!!! Yumm yumm!! And we gave Irfan a surprise birthday celebration... :)




2nd Day...

We woke early... of course to perform morning prayer.... then we went on a jungle trekking. We arrived at a lookout where we played funny games there~ The best part is was the Penjual Baglava dance by Alif... haha


!



Then, is the best activity on the camp...... Canoeing or Kayaking!! It's very the cheap and the best part is that ur totally free to do whatever u like without supervision from the organizer!! wuhuuu!! We spend 2 hours on the kayak and took a lot of pictures thanks to Iqbal U-Tough camera that can withstand 10m of waters... wuhuuu!!



Azmeer and Bash's boat tripped over and all of us came quickly to rescue surrounding him... haha



Wait for me Baem!! I'm here!! save his Slipper!!


Chasing the black goose


On that night, we cook Roti Lilit where suddenly we were surrounded by curious Australians who were like praising our ideas of cooking bread using flour on a campfire... some even brought his child to see us... haha.. its been very long since I cook a Roti Lilit~




3rd Day
Our final day here... we went to the beach again to watch the sunrise... but it was very cloudy so we can't clearly see the sunrise.... we played "Knee Wrestling" and couple interesting games there... then we have a little feedback session, took a picture together and went home...








But...

The journey has not ended yet!!

On the way back when everything seems to be going well...

I fell asleep in the car...


Then suddenly when i woke up... I saw huge white smoke in front of the car... and Alif besides me said Bismillahirrahmannirahim... I was like what happened..??

Then our car pulled off at the side of the HIGHWAY... while the smoke keeps going up.... calmly, Nizam took out M&M's and started eating it with Syifa and Alif took out a biscuit and ate it.... haha... everyone was surprisingly very calm and didn't even care to rush out the car in case anything worse happened to the car...

Our car broke down in the middle of a highway... arghhhhhh!! And all the other car are already almost arriving at Sydney but we have a long way left to go since we departed later then them... We called the van who were in front of us... Around 15 mintues later another van pulled off in front of us... the tyres exploded... woaahhh... haha.. its a death highway... then it started to rain heavily!!!

Soon, our van arrived there and we waited for a while to let the car cool down, then we tried to move the car... but after only a few minutes of drive, white smoke came out again from the car...

After much consideration (espacially on the expansive cost of tow truck) we decided to left the car there and all of us went back using the van... haha...



e


What seem to be a bad luck for us turns out great as we decided to stop by Auburn!!!

Auburn is the place I have wanted to go in Sydney!! It's a place where there's Masjid Gallipoli, one of the biggest masjid in Sydney... yeahhh!! Alhamdulillah~ I arrived here!! My dream came true that day due to the unpredictable event at the highway~


Then, we went to New Star Kebab there at Auburn, according to Awe and Ban, it was their peberet eating spot!! No wonder!! They serve great food there!!






All in all the camping trip to Myall's Lake and the unpredictable visit to Auburn is superb!! Alhamdulillah!! It's a great Autumn Break spent with the greatest of people!!
