Perth with Family 2012

First of all, HAPPY MOTHERS' DAY to all! share a photo with you all! haha!


my Ah Ma!


Just back from Perth. Very tiring YET very fulfilling trip! Took quite a bit of photos. First day was just touch down and lunch, visit to King's Park, followed by supermarket. (so crew-like, haha!) Because we need to prepare some food to bring to a couple of temples for prayers.

Second day was visit to the temples. quite a bit of distance even by driving. but the scenery was breath-taking! :) The second temple is still under construction, will be done by next year.



Third day was the farm stay day! Hmm.. The weather was still not very good. on and off drizzling. after a long drive, we are at Harvey. To start things of, picnic at Harvey Dam. It was Ah Ma's first time eating Subway. She like it! The farm was kind of commercial and chalet like. small area and the housings was close to the office. The night was very chilly but the stars was beautiful... sigh.
The next morning we went to feed the animals. just the rabbits, chickens, ducks, sheep and horses. There was this very animal-shy sheep named Lily. She will stay away from the rest of the animals but keep following us around. So funny!

Lily!
On the fourth day, we head to Mandurah and have a look at all the houses. It is a port town. There are a lot of beautiful houses that have boats and yachts parking just at their backyard, a dock/pier for their leisure. Quite a nice place. To own something like that in Singapore will cause something like 20 million? It is just about a million or two at Mandurah.

And of course! Ah Ma missed the two little ones so much that she wants to Skype them. So we all gathered in front of the computer and do a little "get-together".

 Fifth day and off to Freemantle! The weather was fantastic! First day that went without any sign of rain! The sky is like a blue canvas and clouds are like candy floss! Went to visit the tourist souvenir shops and lunch at Cicerello's Fish and Chips. Honestly, I think the chips are just ok. not fantastic. luckily I had the Boston Chilli Mussels. Not wow. just alright. haha! Went to a couple of beaches. very nice weather very nice beaches. Off to visit Auntie Lisa's house.


Saturday, which was our last free day was another visit to the supermarket! Because we had a house warming party! :) Ah Ma was master chef and we all helped! Yes. Me included. haha! Everyone came with their pot luck items, food platter, cakes, roast meat, roast duck, chicken wings etc. I learned a lot about cooking too! Yays! so happy! :)

Sunday was an early day and off we go to the airport to be back into Singapore. Hope we can do this again! and soon! :)
