Son of a Beach went to the Beach

Posted: May 14, 2009 in Hendra

It was barely a week after my arrival back from Slovenia. And I had to make up my mind whether or not I joined the outing to Carita Beach. After being rescheduled from its initial dates, I decided to just go along.

4-hour journey on the road was not supposed to be that excruciating, considering that it took 5 hours for me to make the previous journey. But to mention the poor construction of the streets, dusty and cobblestoned industrial area, and not-so-wonderful scenery along the way, I had to say that it was sort of disappointing to go such a distance for an outing.

The place was not very great in particular. But, hey, I thought I was there to have fun with my friends. The programme turned out to be not so lame after all.

Banana Boat was definitely one good reason for me to say that somehow the whole programme was not that mundane. The thrill and suspense of being sunk in the open sea still give me a kick. I mean, George Clooney knows that I’m idiot in sports, let alone swimming. But to be left in the sea only with your life jacket doesn’t really give you assurance that somehow a shark won’t come up from the bottom of the ocean and eat you alive.

Well, maybe my anxiety was simply unreasonable.

The fact was, I had fun.

Unfortunately, the food was not very nice. I hardly managed to enjoy the seafood cuisine that we had for lunch and dinner. Ain’t fresh fish!
