A day out at Loch Lomond

It was after all those hectic TDP3 stuffs and at last managed to enjoy the short-while relaxation. On Friday night, I just K.O at 9pm and woke up at Saturday morning to see Bernard (yes, using your english name first....later got more, anticipate it ^^) messaged me in MSN about the trip to Loch Lomond.
And I think...heck why not? Its been so so so long since i had a trip to far far away place. And so my journey began at 10am~ Met my two travelling partners at subway. Ya'll see their pictures~
Took a train from Queen Street Station to Balloch but....the journey is not smooth. We stopped at Hynland 3 stops away from where we left and waiting for another train to bring us straight to our destination. Oh but god knows, the train we're waiting for is postponed. Damn...wait again....
All we could do is sit, stand, walk around and wait...eh who's that huh?
Oh sh*t~ its Guang Liang of Brunei~

The postponed train had finally arrived and we all sit comfortably in the train till our destination Balloch.
Its quite a small town but its all nice. Saw the tourist information shop so went in looked around and asked.
After we came out from the shop, G.L suddenly wanna go to toilet. We looked around and saw one ermm...vending toilet? You know...the one need to put in coins in order to use. And below we have steps by steps on how to use that kind of toilet.
First take out the coins needed to use the toilet

After put in the coin, the door will automatically opened then of course you went in la

Then the door will closed securely so no one can break into and found out that you are doing you-know-what

After you finish using the toilet, there's a button inside where you pressed and the door will open.
Look at him...smiling after using the toilet. Something happy happened while you're inside there eh brader?

Anyway after the toilet demonstration, we went strolling around and reach Loch Lomond shore. It was beautiful.
The stones kinda remind me of Jerudong Beach...owww...

Then two of my travelling mates got hungry and we managed to find a restaurant to eat. Well...they eat only. I just steal abit of theirs ^^ heheh. Learn that from Ah Seng. What they ate...I guess its really not worth the price they paid for it....seriously. Well at least they managed fill in something in their stomach. After that we rush to catch our cruise around Loch Lomond.
Ticket booth
Sweeney's Cruises...not Sweeney Todd!
And the ferry we cruised around on Astina~

The cruise started at 1.30pm and it lasted for an hour long. Just found out there's two other longer cruise around Loch Lomond. Ours is the shortest but for that one hour, its very relaxing~ and Loch Lomond is really beautiful.
Me, Nicky Tan and Guang liang ^^
Good weather
Even a ferry need a rear view mirror
And suddenly...out of no where...

Attack of the Loch Lomond's monster!! Nah jk...its just my finger :p

Its really windy on the ferry and thanks to that I got a new hairstyle~
Oh boy~ :p

So our 1 hour journey ended and we went to Balloch Castle Country park next.
Came to see more branches
And this dog very kuai lan one. Always go kacau the swans just to see them expand their wings. Swans are known to attack to defense themselves. Don't play play.
Balloch Castle. It was a small one though and unfortunately it was closed on the day.
Its a bright sunny day
Our group pic of the day

After that its time for us to go back home. All of us were very tired especially Guang Liang who just slept in the train. So whoever want his sleeping pictures, please ask directly from me hahahaha. Went to Chukoku for dinner. Its buffet man! For 8pound. Eat all you can. Got alot of chinese food, fruits, ice cream, desserts, Woot! Haha got hungry while typing those words. Bah bah gonna stop here.

P.S: Best event of the day, Guang Liang's demonstration on how to use toilet. A round of applause for him please. *clap*clap*clap*
