Sunday 21st August - Hervey Bay Boat Club

Today we got up and got ready for a day on the beach with a nice picnic for lunch. VJ even had her little bikini on ready for building sandcastles...alas the clouds turned grey and it started to rain! Beach plan abandoned. I went back to bed (at 1pm) and slept through till 3pm. Gaz stayed awake and read his book.

Before dinner we sat in the communal hot tub until it got dark. It was toasty in there only the bubbles were a bit too energetic for our liking as they splashed up into our faces and up our noses and in our eyes. After an hour in the water Gaz insisted AGAIN on cooking me food! i could get used to this! The Naughty Jar is still empty and we both enjoyed teryaki chicken, onions, red peppers (called capsicums out here), wholemeal fraghitta wraps and salad. Delicious! Gaz and i are both doing really well and are very keen on loosing weight still.

After dinner we showered and got ready for the hervey bay boat club - which apparently (judging by the full car park) really IS the place to be on a sunday night in Hervey Bay. We had walked in to Gods waiting room but never the less, these people were having a great time bigging it up on the dance floor busting their moves. By moves i mean this was country and western music, each song so similar it all could have been the same song, and everyone knew the exact moves...it was very serious. It was the older generations version to the mackeraina. 

The boat club wasnt all that bad, infact it was a really nice atmosphere. there was a restaurant next door that did cheap food and even a sports bar with television screens so Gaz's thirst for the world cup can be satisfied in there. Looking at the social club board, theres some interesting clubs to be a member of but i think we will steer clear of the line dancing! After we drunk our drinks, we headed to the pokie machine room. The bright lights drew me in! Gaz gave me 5AUD to play with....i won 20AUD! Gaz kept telling me i may aswell put the money back in the machines but i pocketed it  :D When we got home we curled up on the sofa and watched Star Trek the movie - im not a trekie but i really enjoyed it! AND i didnt fall asleep before the end!
