Ok, after putting much thought into how I shall start, I've decided to summarize my Western Australia escapade by writing about what I loved/enjoyed the most in Perth.
- Being with my younger cousins:
Couzies K, J, and L. Couzie aka. chef K does come back often and recently has been back for CNY. We've hung out at home with my sister, who stayed back an extra month too til March. Lil J, however, is not back so often but he does come back once in a while for hols (fingers and toes crossed that he'll able to be back in July). Cousin L, though she was back 2 years ago for our cousin sister's wedding, which actually was the only time she was back in Malaysia. We rarely had the chance to spend much time together. So, it's been good catching up, and spending quality time together. Not so much with L, but mostly with K and J.
* The two naughty couzies busy eating devouring the apple strudel. We had a brief, mini picnic at Kings Park. *
The 3 of us went on a roadtrip down to Margaret River, where all the vineyards, choc-factory and cheese factory are located. Apparently, all the dairy produce originates from here. Hence, the Mad Cow CowParade Margaret River 2010!
I quote from the brochure, " For the event, over 100 talented artists have transformed more than 80 life size 3D cow canvases into works of art. You will find them 'grazing' at iconic attractions and public spaces across the region from March to June 2010 " .
* The cow with the 3D cows !!! *
- The cooling weather (Spring and Autumn only, F*** winter & summer!! ;P) :
Forgive my vulgarity, but the Aussie summer is just too effin' hot to my liking .. Wtf! 40 degrees is not fun at all!! Winter, though, can be still bearable, especially when you think of the lovely coats and boots that you get to wear. LOL .. I love the thigh high boots . I find it sluttishly alluring! ;D
* Picturesque Kings Park *
Anyways, the cooling Autumn weather made it possible for daily picnics at the park, and definitely no sunburn or fainting due to the scorching sun (that's if you go for a picnic in Malaysia) !! You can just sit/lie down on the evergreen grass .. sooOOOo relaxing!!
* J's frenny and me @ our roast chicken & chips picnic *
* Cutest French bulldog ever!! And he's called Stitch (Yes! After the cartoon, Lilo & Stitch). *
* Kids at play ...LOL *
* Clear blue sky. Do you spot the rainbow? *
- Artsy fartsy reasons:
When I first laid my eyes on the graffito along the streets of Northbridge (where the 'yum cha' restaurants and Vietnamese food are located), I just couldn't help but admire the creativity and beauty of it. Trust me! These graffito are not like those dodgy ones found along our Malaysian alleys and car parks in Jalan Alor or other areas.
OOoh.. and I'll share a glimpse of action at J's frenny's art gallery. Loved it!!
- Booze, of course!! Vineyards and brewery .. not forgetting the drive-thru liquor stores ..My! Oh my!! This place is just heaven for alcohol lovers !!!
* Posing among the vines, after wine-tasting *
* Cheers! Having a Dunkel after several sessions of wine tasting ..is certainly refreshing! *
* Haulage!! You can't walk away empty handed in Margaret River!! *
* Little Creatures brewery @ Freo *
* Liquors & cocktails - thumbs up!!! (Btw, the name of the cocktail is PIMP. Da ever refreshing pimp drink!! Not for pimp's though .. KEWL) *
- Corica's Apple Strudel :
MMmm.. mmm ... you can't walk away from Perth without tasting this delicious, yummy yummy pastry!!!
- Last but not least, the beaches :
* Sunset @ Surfer's Point *
* Cute surfer dude with a sexy ass .. yeOwww!!! *
* Takes your breath away!! Awww... miss it sooOO much now!! *
* Breathtaking scenery's @ Augusta *
* Yet, another beautiful sunset *
* From the bushes of Augusta *
* Scarborough beach - where we had our fish n chips lunch cum picnic. Note: Beware of the evil, conniving seagulls!! They'll either try to steal your food or take a dunk in front of you, while you're eating. Meanies!! Pffttt ...*
* Clear blue sky & clear blue waters AND me, dress in blue!! Perfect, ey? LOL ..*
So, there you go... mind shutting down soon ...ZzzzZZzzz
Nitey!!
* Muakss...*
