my thoughts: PERTH

my uncle's house...

Time passed so fast I can't believe that it's been almost three months since my arrival to Jakarta. I've had a really fun holiday in Perth! I know that it's been really really late, but still, I want to share the adventure with you.

Our way to departure hall

On 8th September, the departure day, I had to wake up at 3 o'clock in the morning to catch the plane....... damn! The sky was so dark and I felt really really sleepy and dizzy. Anyhow, I had to wake up! That was a busy morning, mum was washing the dishes and locking the doors, dad was taking the luggage, and at last, we're on our way to the airport.

Fortunately, it didn't take a long time for us to board on the plane and after a few hours of flight, we've finally reached our destination, Perth!! :D

It rained heavily when my uncle, dad's elder brother, picked us up from the airport, and on our way to his house, I saw this rainbow and I smiled: Good omen!! :)

Anyway, I'll tell you guys about my daily activity there!

Day 1: Stayed at home, my eldest cousin joined us for dinner

Day 2: Visited Mindarie Beach & went to Jundaloop

Day 3: Went to Yenchap National Park & Yenchap National Cave

Day 4: Went to IKEA and Kathmandu, Had a dinner at Dragon Palace ( absolutely love the chinese food! yummy!)

Day 5: Went to Freemantle Beach, had lunch at Cicerello's, visited Scarborough beach

Day 6: Visited spotlight, Anaconda, went around the city, David Jones and visited Kikki K. I ate snow crab for dinner! yum..yum..!

Day 7: Went to Botanical Garden and King's Park, went to city with my cousin,Calvin. We had lunch at Taka's (which is a very crowded Japanese restaurant). Then, I visited general museum and saw preserved animals, next, I went to Kikki K., Johnson, Borders, and David Jones looking for stamps.

Day 8: Visited Mandura, had lunch at Nino's fishbar ( delicious fish and chips!), went to spotlight and bought a brown inkpad.

Day 9: Went to Whitford, visited Lincraft

Day 10: Whhoaa... last day.....I'm so sad...:( Visited Malaga Market, went to nearby craft shop and library, had dinner at a Thai restaurant called Basil leaves.

By the way, here are the things that I like the most from Perth:

- The food is absolutely delicious!!!! My aunt is a obviously a good cook

- I love the craft stores!! As you might have noticed, I tried to visit a craftstore almost everyday! :P When I first visited spotlight and found that many cardmaking supplies, I was really really excited!!!!!

By the way, there is a small craftstore near my uncle's house which I really like, and the owner was really friendly.....one day, I went there, and she's like having a crafting lesson in a room in her store and then she said to me: "If you have finished, just call me!" I didn't understand what she's trying to tell me at first because of her strange accent, the way she pronounce 'call' is so weird it's like 'kowul'.
