perth trip
i'm back from perth... my birthday getaway... am very happy having no calls and no ward rounds for a week... decided to keep a diary of the trip, please bare with me... photos already uploaded... (i'm highly efficient this time...)
surprised me that perth is actually in the similar longitude (if you still remember your geography) as hong kong... they're in the same time zone... and journey from hong kong to perth is actually shorter than that to sydney or brisbane... weather was fantastic... each day i wake up seeing a blue sky...
visited fremantle on day one... an old port city... i dunno a lot of history... didn't visit all the "sightseeing spots"... it's more a casual kind of trip... seafood at this port was fabulous... had a pretty heavy and enjoyable lunch at the pier... fresh seafood and white wine... wine wasn't too good... i got drunk for the very first time in my life!!! was so damn dizzy and i had this starry vision and i slept on one of the rocks for a while!!! haha... my first ever hangover experience...
sunset coast is the goldcoast equilvalence in western australia... also popular for surfers... but beaches not as nice as those in queensland... anyway we paid a visit... spent some time around and took pictures... had some sun and some fresh air... then we visited the outlets selling kitchenware and furnitures... mum's favourite shops...
day three was very important... it's my bigbigday... started off wandering around the city... also visited the bigbig park... had a fine lunch there... pity we're too sleepy to stay in park and no squirrels was seen... korean food dinner was superb... a very contented evening...
another day spent in margaret river which was four-hour drive from perth city... lots of farms and winery... and for the first time i drove in australia.. very nice roads... but having to keep at 100km/h for an hour was another story... poor yingyingbird did most driving... he's got 7 stars at night... (scale of 0-10, 10 stars being extremely exhausted!) would be better if we could spare another day for the region... which is a country area with farms and winery and nice foods...
took some funny pictures... coming soon...
