Thursday 28th March got up 8.30ish and what to do as everyone else at work, decided to go to beach since a nice day and might not be many more. Got train 10.30ish decided to go to Manly as not been for a while and do like to get the ferry across as feels more like a break. By the time got their was nearly time for lunch so got some mini sushi, small tub of Pringles and water then could eat on beach. I then went to search for the shop that did the lil designs short print kaftan which I liked at Manly market. As supposedly the Mint shop in Manly on central avenue is stockist for them but when found didn't have any but had nice clothes but expensive. It was then time to go on the beach but I first sat on the beach steps to have my lunch as thought best not to eat on sand. I found a nice place on the beach only stated on the beach for about 2 and half hours then the sun started to go in. Really fancied ice-cream but decided would try a different one than my usual Ben & Jerrys so went to yoghurtland instead. Yogurtland is the land of endless yogurt possibilities, where you rule the portions, the choices and the scene. You get a cup and get to choose what flavours you want, how much then any toppings I went for coconut, mango ice-cream with m&m's and yoghurt coated pieces. It was very good will definitely try again as the coconut ice-cream was similar to the coconut yoghurt I liked at home. Whilst eating my ice-cream was lots of seagulls about and very cheeky one sat on ladies hat next to me. It was then to have a quick look round the surf shops but was very good didn't buy anything and then to catch the ferry back to city. By the time got back to circular quay was still nice so went to sit on the grass to finish reading my chapter. It was then to meet Debbie at town hall at about 5ish and we went to Ripcurl to collect our free surf camp t-shirts and caps. The people in the shop were very amusing and one was from England aswell we had a look to see if anything could buy with our $20 voucher nothing at present but tempted to get cabin suitcase. Then time to go get something eat went to Harry's Wheels as not been yet and home of the famous Pies. Harry's Cafe de Wheels is an Australian icon serving pies, pasties and hot dogs to celebrities, tourists and locals. I decided to go for the tiger pie which they are best known for it is a type of Australian meat pie named after the original founder of Harry's. I wanted just the beef pie but none left so had the beef, cheese and bacon one with mash, mushy pies then gravy on top was good. Will definitely have to cone again Debbie had the chilli hot dog which looked good aswell will have to try. When left Harry's wheels was raining and obvisiously had no umbrella but didn't get to wet before getting to central. On way hone went to Coles to get a few things and then once hone 1st thing was shower as still didn't feel clean after been at beach.
