BBQ on Saturday, Scootering on Sunday!

Had a BBQ at our place on Saturday. People who attended: Agnes, Kelvin (Chef), Bran (Assistant Chef), Colin, Felix, Erina, Sherlyn, Wrissipoo, Mr Browne and Me!

Thanks to the wonderful chef, we had a sumptuous BBQ with some delish seafood. There were baked Kilpatrick oysters, Sambal stingray, HUGEASS Tiger prawns and the usual BBQ foodstuffs --> Chicken wings, Crabsticks, sausages and last but not least, there was sparkling chilled Brown Brothers Moscato! Agnes & Kelvin introduced us to yummy dessert, Baked Apple Pie with Vanilla Ice-Cream. My stomach was exploding by the end of the night. *grin*

I have to say that I was a little apprehensive about the oysters (due to a very bad experience I had when I ate raw oysters), but Kelvin assured me that if they tasted raw, I could smack him! haha

Bran had never eaten a single oyster before in his entire life, so I let him be the guinea pig first. He ate one.... then another one...... then yet another one......
So.... I decided to try one too. Surprisingly, they didn't really taste like oysters at all, guess it was because Kelvin baked them, added lotsa bacon bits and squeezed lotsa lemon juice on the oysters thus masking the fishy, raw oyster smell that I dislike. But I still stopped at one oyster...

The beef was specially marinated by Kelvin, and they tasted REALLY, REALLY GOOD! The Sambal Stingray was also prepared by Kelvin and it tastes exactly like sambal stingray back in SG! Yummy!

Woke up early this morning to go Scootering at Freo. Colin rode alone on a red Mini Harley, Kelvin pillioned Agnes on a black Mini Harley and Bran pillioned me on a blue Scooter! hahahaha. We all wore 'Bomberman' helmets and rode around Freo looking silly.

Stopped at Freo Markets for lunch. Bought crepes (recommendation of Agnes) then walked around Freo markets before settling down at a food court outside to eat our lunch. After leaving the food court, some ang moh walked up to Bran and asked him where he bought his tee from (bran was wearing his McShit Tee). Very attention grabbing tee, if I might say so.. haha

After lunch, we rode to a secluded parking lot so that Agnes and I could try riding the harleys and scooter on our own. I was terrified when I tried. The stupid scooter was wobbly and I couldn't balance properly. But I succeeded in riding it in the end! Woo Hoo!! Great accomplishment for a scaredy cat like me who refuses to even practise driving. hehe

I tried the harley next...... and got hooked! It was so fun!!! I kept going round in circles in the parking lot and refused to stop riding it.. vrooom vrrooom! Yes, I noe I look cock in the stupid helmet. -_-

For your info, renting a scooter or mini harley in Freo costs $29 for 4 hours (which is damn long) and if you're above 21, extra insurance charge of $5. Rather reasonable price for a fun experience!

p/s: Mel, lets go when you come here for your holiday with Jikai! It will be fun!
