Lorne aka Fat Camp!

I was so excited on Friday to spend the weekend with two lovely ladies - Belinda and Catherine - away from the hustle and bustle of city life whilst we escaped away to Lorne. Belinda kindly offered us a few beds to sleep in at her holiday house...

We arrived on Friday evening, had dinner at the Lorne Pub and went to 'The Bottom" where we played pool for the rest of the night with the locals. Needless to say the local girls weren't very accomodating while all the boys chatted to us all night. Oh except for our friend Bec...who was rather friendly - especially when she came up from behind me and grinded herself against me as she was "dancing"!!!

Anyway, we got up early on Sat morning, had a lovely breakfast and then..................went for a walk!! Belinda and I tried so hard to avoid going on a walk (Ok, so I think I resisted more than Belinda) but we had a few plans up our sleeves:
1. Belinda or Mona to fall and crack their head open in the shower which would require a trip to the hospital.
2. Belinda going on the walk while Mona would stay home and bake the cookies - Someone would have to stay home to bake cookies of course!!
3. Belinda or Mona to fall and hurt themselves in any other way which would result in NO WALKING!!
So, none of these plans worked and to Cat's delight we all went for a walk. It actually was really lovely and we came home quiet tired and hungry. We spent our Saturday night over a lovely dinner and watched some TV - Beaches in fact. Looooove Beaches. But I didn't ry. Catherine and Belinda had the tissues out...Oh and I forgot, we had dessert - Toffee Apples YUM YUM.




Now Sunday - Oh I LOVED Sunday...we had our breakfast and Belinda and I knew we were up for another walk. These were our visitors for breakfast - Belinda is scared of birds...haaaahahah.


Anyway, back to our Sunday avo...we delayed it for as long as we could but the time came where we fulfilled our promise of going on another walk with Catherine! This time we went bushwalking. Picture this: Belinda and Catherine taking turns walking in front with a short legged asian stumbling 10 metres behind them (YES! that's me!) THE whole walk I was way behind, so behind that I would have to jog and sometimes sprint every now and then to be able to catch upto them. All I can really remember in terms of conversation was me yelling "I hate my life" and other comments relating to my hate for the bushwalk that became similar to that of a FAT CAMP scenario!! Just call me FAT MANDY!! The walk led us to a beautiful waterfall where I was able to catch my breath for 5 minutes before having to hit the road again and walk all the way back!! In total it was about an hour and a half that we walked...or in my case jog/ran!!



We hit the road at 4pm and headed back to Melbourne - me snoozing in the back seat!! It was a great relaxing weekend at Fat Camp...
However last night I did miss sharing a single bed with Belinda and I missed Cat telling me how many calories are in our foods and deciding where to walk next! Love ya girls!!
