Prawn Fishing

Been hearing so much about the Bottle Tree Park and driving past it so many times, yet we have never dropped by this place before (partly cos' the entrance is located far on the other side).  Today, we finally got to visit this place and indeed there is a big tree that shaped like a bottle.  Guess that's how it got its name.

It was the 1st time for all of us to have a go at prawn fishing, haha... that may well explain why the poor catch (partly cos' we were late too and the private pool had been booked for only an hour).  However, great to have nice frends who are willing to share their gain with us.  Haha... but most of the prawns were gobbled up by both my darlings, guess super fresh prawns are just too yummy.

My darlings were very excited to be involved in real fishing (cos' they have often seen the big catch on the National Geographic channel or only at most, seen others fish at the jetty).  It's their 1st time to see their daddy put the bait on the hook at close proximity and also got to hold onto a real fishing rod.  Too bad the hot weather just doesn't permit one to enjoy fishing for long.  Nevertheless, it has been a fun activity and think we may try prawn fishing again.  Hee... or should mummy simply use the money to buy the big prawns from the supermarkets instead?  At least we can be guaranteed of a certain number of prawns and a satisying meal in the comfort of home, hee...
