Suzie & Shendelle's Road Trip to Lancelin

Just for something different, Shendelle and Suzie decided to go to Lancelin for a night. We booked into the backpackers and got in the car and arrived at about 2pm. We first decorated the room with streamers, balloons, clothes and junk. Then we put some novelty items on the bookshelf thing so that we felt at home.....

We somehow ended up with a dorm room of 4 bunk beds to ourselves and by the end of our time there we managed to mess up all of them. We then went to the general store to get some stubby holders and found out that out FAVOURITE footy team, the Pirates, were playing in Ledge Point at 4pm. Of course we went and watched the game and it was GOLD. This was like no game of footy we had ever seen. The Pirates were playing the Legends which were old Pirates and they were just wearing whatever they wanted. One guy who we later found out was named Chad was wearing jeans, no shoes and had a mullet. He was smoking during the game and had EB at half time. Half the team werent wearing shoes and the goal umpire was gettin pissed off if teams got a goal cos he had to put his rum and coke down hehe.

After the footy we decided to get something to eat and we went to the cafe restaurant thing but the lady went psycho mad at us cos we used the toilets so then we went to the other cafe but they didnt have eftpos and we only had $10. Hot chicken rolls were $5 each but we wanted chips too so we asked the lady if we could just have 6 chips cos we figured that would be about as many as she would give us for free. She wrote 6 chips on the order sheet and we got to keep it hehe. We ended up with a whole bag of chips. We ended up giving most of them to a friendly Irish fella though.

After eating we started drinking and played some drinking games but found out that the other backapckers were a bit antisocial. Bugger. We decided to walk to the pub. Shendelle got side-tracked on the way and went for a ride on a bike with massive handlebars. Then we hitchhiked the rest of the way to the pub.

When we got to the pub we chatted to lots of randoms and met some of the star players from the Pirates. We also got up on the stage with the band with the tambourine. There was a group of girls havin a hens night too so everyone was having fun. We were offered to go crayfishing in the morning with some nice fellas but the idea of getting up at 5am with a hangover and then goin on a boat all day with smelly crayfish wasnt too appealing.

Just before the end of the night we met some guys from Phillip Island who are living in Palmyra and play footy for Whtifords with our friends Heals and BOJ. They were good blokes and Shendelle taught them how to be hardcore. They drove us back to our backpackers and had a few drinks with us. Their names were Stewie and Brett (with a silent B aka Rhett). We had lots of fun with them. And they wore the hideous bali pants which looked so funny hehe...

We felt like roadkill in the morning, even a run through the sprinklers screaming Yippee didnt make it any better. So we walked to the beach but it was stinky like sea weed so we just swam in the backpackers pool. Then we packed up our mess....it was amazing how much mess there was considering we were there for less than 24 hours...

It was a great trip. Looking forward to the next one...hopefully Mop will join us for the next adventure.
