Perth trip

Been to Perth in end May for a family trip. I always hope to maintain the same lifestyle if he would here. i guess i would always plan trips, be it local or overseas. i know if he is here, we can't afford overseas trip. who cares, as long as we are being together, anywhere is the same. Anyway, i've purchased the air tic for myself and the kids to the perth, during the airasia sales. Got it for 500 plus for adult tic, kids is 295 rm each. Considered the cheapest to get. 

Never know that the autumn in Perth is so cold. I've made the decision that i won't go to anyplace with temperature less than 15 degree celcius anymore (rules are to be broken). Anyway, it's too cold! i can't truly enjoy the trip, especially the first few days while it was raining. 

Just for the records of the trip
1st day: Perth airport, breakfast at airport, car rental @ Thrift, drove to the rented apartment but could not check in, Kings park (try to hang out longer but raining), back to apartment and lunch nearby, check in, took cat bus (free city bus) to city woolworths and shop for groceries. back to apartment, and went to woolworths again. dinner and sleep about 7.15pm.

2nd day: Drove all the way to busselton lighthouse then bunburry, then check in to sunflower farm at margaret river. shop groceries at woolworths and dinner at farmstay.

3rd day: quite an enjoyable day as started with the kids pony ride, farm animals feeding and tractor ride. Feel so excited first time seeing kangaroo. hang around at the farm and leave about 11am. Departed to margaret river chocolate company, then killers by winery, and back to perth. my god, the final rented airbnb the most comfortable. a lovely home. finally can have a good rest.

4th day: Lancelin sandunes then namburg national park (pinnacles dessert). Worth the long journey. the clear sky, the unique scenes plus you can take pretty photos! The favorite day and place of the trip.

5th day: Carvesham wildlife park which contains many local animals. kangaroo are still my favorite.

6th day: wander around the fremantle. Had the nice fish and chips. Again, pretty photos.

Of all points and places we experienced, the kindness of the people is the most memorable and warming one. The airbnb host, the custom officer and the taxi driver, gave me an impressive memories of Perth, which when i came back to own place, i keep saying "i truly like Perth".

Thanks for the wonderful trip.
