A Weekend Away - Part 1


A group of 6 of us went on a weekend (2 days, 1 night) road trip to Portsea and stayed at our friend, Alex's holiday house. Chris (the bf) came over to pick me up as my place is on the way down to the coastal area. As we were late, we decided to drop by McDonalds for breakfast and coffee. The burgers were steamy hot. So fresh.. and the Hazelnut Latte was amaaazing ~!
 
Look at the steam coming out.. *drools*
 
Our main purpose of this getaway was to spend an evening at the hot springs, we booked ourselves in for the late night session (which is great because it's a lot cheaper and not as crowded!)
 
We met the others at D.O.C Mornington to enjoy some authentic Italian food. Alex suggested we try this place and because he is such a foodie, we knew it must be good! The place is very unique as it's connected to its own grocery store. Unfortunately, I didn't get to take a picture of the interior, it was way too busy! I did however take a picture of the Chamomile tea that Christine and I had. It's actually the first tea bag that I've seen presented so nicely, the taste is very fresh too - a little bit of a floral taste. Love The food was amazing but because we were all starving, we started eating before I had the chance to take any pictures TT

Look how pretty my tea bag is. Chris got me a whole box! 


 
We reached Alex's place around 3 and lounged around the fireplace (it was raining so heavily) playing card games etc. I didn't think 6 adults could enjoy snap so much - damn painful though!

Thankfully, the rain stopped which meant we could hit the hot springs without having to worry about the staff chasing us our before closing but a little drizzle whilst you're in the springs is the best feeling ever!

Here are some amazing shots of the sunset from Alex's balcony before we left to relax our evening away.
