The next day we decided to pay a visit to a friend’s place. They told us to take a train to Granville. We took a train from central station and had to ride for hours and finally found out that we were on the wrong train and it’s going to totally way off places. We messed up with the map and the color lines so we had to come back to Stretfield station and wait for our friends to pick us there by car. It was the first train ride experience to us and what a ride we been through. We got big headache after that and thank god we finally meet our friends. They took us to Burmese shop and we had our lunch there. I left my mom with those friends and phwe, jain n I took off our own roaming around back in town.

The Singer
We did mainly window shopping and sight seeing. Then jain took us to karaoke shop since we got a great singer along with us. The great phwe sings for 3 hrs non-stop. I scream for a few songs and lost my voice. Jain listened the whole time or rather felt sleepy beside while she act so cheerful with all. We got 3 bottles of juice and I drank up 1 whole while jain drunk 2 and the main one, phwe, who singing non-stop didn’t even take a sip. We were surprised at her with how much she could sing and her amazing voice.
I guess that day was wasted a lot riding the wrong train. Zz..zzz..ZZZ..Z
The Beach: Long Reef
The next day was a day out with sein since jain got work in the morning. He called us around 10am and took us to Long Reef beach for sight seeing. To my dismay, there is no good sight to see except water, sand and stones. Well, I was expecting my kind of sight seeing. Where were all those aussie bikini guys? I only found old men in bikinis with big tummies showing. Where all those six packs go?? LOL I see either too old or too young kids with lovely dogs. Nevertheless, I enjoyed walking along the beach and took some good shots there.
Long Reef Beach Sences.
It was so hot walking under the sun and very selfish Sein, who brought water bottle, never thought of sharing. Water, water everywhere but not a drop to drink.
Only when Jain called to check how things were and when I complained about that to her then he pointed the water fountain ahead where I could take a drink.

Sein took us to McDonald for lunch and he was in a hurry to go back to his business as he already had plans for that evening. We were so disappointed to hear that since we, gals, made some plan for that evening. We, especially Phwe, couldn’t even talk on the way back but finally we decided to make it happen to some extent.
The plan we(Phwe and I) thought up way before coming to Sydney was to throw water at Jain and Sein the night before we leave. Phwe will be leaving the next day and we planned for movie at night then let Jain and Sein wait for a while to throw water at them, put some Ooe Maee at them and I would take a good shot of them soaking we in the chilling Sydney weather. :p Just want to have some remembrance for Thingyan.
The Surprise
Since Sein couldn’t be with us that evening, we just have to throw water before he leave. We let him wait for his present and came back with some coke and coffee cups filled with water to throw at him. I wasn’t sure he knew what inside those cups but he did act shocked and laughed at us saying that was good one and would pay back one day. I couldn’t take photo nor out Ooe Maee to Sein but we had to satisfy with what we could do.
In that evening Jain took us for one good dinner and movie. We all felt bad about not able to take four of us photo. Anyway the movie was quite enjoyable and we were trying our best not to let Jain sleep through it since we knew she has a habit of sleeping in the cinema.
When we came back to the apartment, it was quite cold night and we again let her wait for her present and threw water at her but she was so lucky/smart that she got drinking water bottle in her hand and threw back at us. Of course, we got wet too and it was such a cracking in front of WakeUp with water everywhere and some people watching us in amaze thinking what was wrong with this three crazy gals.
MaJain Got Splashed!
Oh yes, I took a shot of Jain there LOL. Poor MaJain, had to go back home wet and cold that I felt so sorry for her. But then we could only bully her like that once in …??……time that she had to excuse with us. :D I hoped she didn’t catch cold the next day.
That night I couldn’t sleep much cos’ I was thinking about the whole day and laughing to myself.
PS. I found out Majain to be very polite, soft talker, generous and very caring nature and I respected her ever more for that. To my surprise, Sein did amazing job of talking in Burmese with my mom.(not with us!) I never expected he could talk Burmese that much. Oh he didn’t get a slang and had to explain to him though. ;)
