Breakfasts and Lunches: Day Four and Five


Day Four - 19/01/2007
We woke up fast and went to an OUTLET MALL!! Cheap Stuff!! Had Breakfast at Harbour Town's Merchant Coffee Bistro. Good Old-fashioned Eggs and Bacon. Then we walked around, and around. Checked out EB Games. Scored 2 Franz Ferdinand CDs for A$10 at Dirt Cheap CDs (That's the store's name. No Foolin'). A$10!! That's S$12!! TWO CDs!!
Then we drove around and went for Generic stereotype Chinese food in a box for lunch. Cool... We then went shopping around the open mall near the hotel. I got a Wii bag. Yes, the one you can store a Wii in.

Day Five - 20/01/2007
Hungry Jacks for Breakfast. Breakfast Wrap again, though Heavier and more cheesy goodness. Slight shopping. Lunch at the Hotel's Italian-oriented restaurant. Risotto. mmm... Then finally, sadly... Souvenir shopping before departing to the airport for the trip home. It's been very very very fun. But every good thing must come to an end.

I'm not even gonna say anything much. I'll let the photos do the talking.

We went to McDonalds for Breakfast. It's totally different. They got Breakfast Wraps!! Then we went to Coles for a light shopping spree. Lunch was interesting.We had a choice between two of Fremantle's finest Fish places. We took Kaili's. Look at the photos. True splendour. Oysters, Prawns, Fish, Chowder, Fish, Chips. Damn! Then we had Baskin Robbins. Yes, the 31 flavour place. Today is basically food, food, food.

Then we hit the Burswood Hotel and Casino for some nostalgia and over-the-age-of-18 gambling. I can finally enter the Casino!! No photos, though. Hotel policy. But I didn't gamble, yet. I mean, it was 4pm in the Afternoon. Then we went to the Wing Bo Chinese Restaurant for some award-winning stereotype cuisine. See what I mean? It's all food. We saw the tiny faraway Comet in the night sky. As seen on the news.

On the Road: Wildlife and Wine.

Existence: 6715 days Feeling Well

(Kookaburra, Mountain-type Goats and Sleeping Koalas)
I woke up slightly giddy but that faded away. Had Puffy Croissant Pastries from Croissant Express. Great tasting. Then we went on the road 45 minutes to the Caversham Wildlife Park. Saw plenty of Kangaroos, Birds, Koalas, Kangaroos and Tasmanian Devils, plenty of other animals too. Then I bought one of those Animal Crossing Aussie Signs from the gift shop. A$4. Cheap.

DSC00142.JPGThen we headed for a Winery around Swan Valley. We went for the most economic winery, Jane Brooks. Great Luncheon. Mediterranean Food. Bread, Salads and Cheeses, along with a fabulous chicken pâté. And the Greatest Grape Juice ever. Also A$4 for one delicious, sugar-free, all-natural litre-bottle. Oh, goodness.

Nothing much else, I guess. We had Dinner at Arirang, a Korean Barbecue Restaurant (Great food as well.) and hit the hay. I'll just edit this entry when I remember some more stuff.

Perth: Day One
Air-Sickness, Lost Baggage and AQWA

Existence: 6714 days Feeling Nauseous
DSC00070.JPG
Panorama: Perth International Airport

Man, this morning's flight didn't do me very well. I watched, then listened to "Open Season" In-flight, before giving up 35 minutes into the movie and went to sleep at 2am (flight was 0115hrs) I think I woke up at 4am or something. Had breakfast. We landed at 7am. Then motion-sickness forced me to throw up in the plane. Went out of the plane to realise the chilling truth. The Weather was a Sunny 18°C. Got out of immigration with an illegal Snickers bar from the plane (Perth Quarantine Rules, see "Simpsons" Australia Episode), could have gotten fined. And, oh, shit. I didn't have roaming so my phone became a full-fledged 2 megapixel camera.

DSC00073.JPGDad forgot his Driver's Licence. So Winnie (she's my cousin, say 'hi') had to be our driver for the trip. Got our Hertz Rental and drove out of the Airport. The problem with roads in Perth is the amount of No Right Turns popping up here and there, so we had trouble getting to our hotel, The Criterion. But check-in was only at 2pm and it was noon. So, yeah we got some time to spend and we decided to start our vacation at AQWA (The AQuarium of Western Australia) which was a half-hour away. We got there to realise that my Dad's luggage was missing and left behind somewhere. Then we took the route back to the Airport for the good news. The bag was treated as a potential bomb and brought in for a thorough check by Airport Security. Phew. We then lugged ourselves back to AQWA as planned.

(AQWA, Jellyfish and Lunch)

AQWA is the biggest aquarium in Australia. We couldn't pass off as 2 adults and 4 children, so we paid and got in. Rather worth. Tanks of fishes and marine life. Right, so it wasn't exactly a bomb, but Lunch was Ab Fab. Our First Fish and Chips platters and other stuff. After a giddy ride "underwater" along a kilometre-long automatic path with a huge aquarium enclosed, we called it a day and headed back to the Hotel at 4pm.DSC00101.JPG The Criterion Hotel is some Heritage building converted into a well-to-do Hotel. Checked-in, freshened up and didn't go far for dinner at 8pm, which had a bright 5pm feel. Han's Cafe had some nice close-to-home cuisine. Then we walked around for a while to see 96% of the shops on the streets closed for the day (the shops close early on weekdays and stretch out a bit on the weekends). I saw Wii Boxes from an actual ebGames outlet. ebGames!! Walked for plenty-a-while and back to the Hotel.

Oh and Burger King is called Hungry Jacks here for some Legal reason. Motion-sickness got the better of me. I gotta sleep now.

En Route, Aussie!
Existence: 6713 days Feeling Cold
Yes! The Landing page is true! I am going on a trip!
Well, everything's charged up (well, my phone is still juicing up), I'm all packed (er... not exactly either) and I'm ready to go! I hope I can even have a internet connection for one single day at least. Armed with my Sony Ericsson, I'm geared up for the most photographic vacation ever!
This entry will start my "Perth" Holiday Series of Blog Entries. If I'm without an internet connection for the week, then I'll cram everything into blog entries with fake dates.
I'll be off. Flight is in a couple of hours. Miss me.
