South Haven's North Beach

The best thing about summer - Saturday can be an offday! Don't need to do homework! Of course not every Saturday lah..but Ping was glad to go somewhere for a while. Michigan so boring, where to go leh? It's sunny out, it's warm, we've got M'sians who misses the beach - go beach lor!

Went to South Haven's North Beach. It's been a while since Ping went to Michigan beach too...exactly 4 years ago actually. That was when BK brought Ping there to see the sunset...that was the most spontaneous trip we've ever made! Ping came home, he said let's go, bring you go somewhere. :) One of the best trip though! Thanks, dear!
Drove a bunch of M'sians, a Hong Kongnese, and a Canadian. With such a mix, Ping really miss the feeling of being with friends back home. All kinds of language - malay, hokkien, cantonese, mandarin, english - like rojak only. They are definitely a nice bunch to have in the car ride. Pretty 'chin chai' ppl also.

When we got to the beach, everyone are like so jakun. Like never see beach before. Haha...the feeling was just awesome!!! The sand, the water, the wind, the sun...too bad got no leng chai to kap only. *bleh* But Ping wasn't really looking either ler. We were too busy building sandcastle as LP has never built a sandcastle (even though she's from Penang!!!). The sand is much finer than the one in Penang, kind of like the one in Redang/Perhentian (err...whichever one that Ping went before..with Yong, Mei and Emily). Because of the heat from the sun, it is hard to walk barefooted because the sand gets really hot (although according to Joe, it is pretty cold deeper inside). The water though, is cool and would actually be really nice to swim in but none of us brought our suits. Oh, Ping also found a cute little beetle!!

Once we did the sandcastle, we buried Joe in the sand! (That's how he know that it's cooler deeper into the ground). That's what happens when one guy goes to the beach with 5 girls. We thought of stuff and he has to go along with it. Pretty sporting guy so it was fun! (haha! ahboy, maybe we should do this to you next time I go home..keke).

The beaches here a bit weird. Most of them are privately owned. There are only very limited space for 'public'. Gotta be careful where we set up otherwise can kena halau. The parking lots have an interesting way of collecting money - honest system. There's no pondok or no ah pek to jaga your car. They have a yellow box where you just put the money in. If this is in M'sia, for sure nobody pay wan.

After all the messing around in the sand, we got ice-cream, hang around the beach and lepak. 好放松, 好開心, 好好玩哦!
