Road trips!!

Remember the last time I said I bought some things from Pemberton? Here's the pictures!

After a day of orientation and training, we had 2 days break, and so we decided to go on a roadtrip!!

Day 1 of our roadtrip:

As all the lifeguards have 2 days off. We decided to travel to some place a distance a way from where we stay. However, buses don't operate on Sundays, and cab fares are freaking expensive, we decided eventually after much deliberation to rent a car - a 12-seater in fact!

After much trouble - some rentals don't open; some are really 'niao' and only allow 25 year old and above with credit/debit card to rent a 12-seater, we finally managed to get a car (Phew~). As it was already quite late, we deicded to go to some place nearer- Williamsburg - where we can shop at their premier outlet and look at their historical sites.

After an hour plus of driving and some U-turns, we finally reached Williamsburg. The funny thing was - we went to the wrong shopping mall with nothing much to see. And we were comforting ourselves that we've come so far, and so should spend more time walking around it. After which, we decided to head down to the historical site of Richmond to take a look at them. Not even halfway there, we pass by the Chelsea Premier Outlet at Williamsburg and we immediately turned in to stop there. By then, we only had an hour left! So in the end, we didn't have any time for the historical sites which was a little disappointing.

Conclusion of the daytrip: I bought shades and a very nice smelling raspberry body lotion for myself - it smells like one of the sweets that we can find in SG - the pink and square one with wrapper.

I also bought 2 fossil watches - one for my sis and one for my father. My brother has a new Adidas watch too! Hope they like it!

2nd day of our roadtrip:

The roadtrip gang

First we made our way to the bank of America to start a bank account.

Next, we headed for a 3-hour road trip to Leesburg to another Chelsea Premier Outlet!! There were Guess, Levis, CK, Nine West and so many more other branded US stores selling their stuffs at dirt cheap prices! Levis jeans cost only 60 odd Sing Dollars or so and my CK jeans less than SGD$40 after all the discounts!!

By the time we finished shopping 3 hours later, we still have a lot of shops not visited! But it was already 8.30pm so we had to head back another 3 hours ride for the hotel for we have lifeguard training the next day. The road back was practically dark with reflectors as the only lights around. It was quite scary to go back! We missed a few turns too! But luckily, we found our way eventually and made it back safely.
