Perth

We were suppose to go to Japan in March this year but because of the earthquake and subsequent tsunami, we had to cancel the trip and make alternative plans. Mummy and Daddy decided a cool place will be nice for me and so decided that we will check out Perth. They were well aware there is not very much to do there but the cool weather and various farms and open spaces will make me a very happy kid and that was good enough for them.

We were suppose to be there from 15th to 23rd June but our fight was delayed a day due to the Chilean ash cloud. We thought we were not meant to go for any holidays when told of the cancelled flight but was glad to find out we will fly out 12 hours later.

Jie Jie Sophia was there to greet us and she brought us for brunch and settled us in our hotel before heading off to work. For the next 7 days, we were on our own and Daddy drove from Perth to Augusta and then back again to Perth. The whole journey was about 1000 km and Daddy enjoyed the pleasant drive. We had great fun stopping at various towns along the way and I got to feed many farm animals and even saw dolphins and whales and Daddy and Mummy even got to enjoy a nice lunch at a vineyard.

On the last day, we met up with Jie Jie Sophia again and had dinner with her at a Vietnamese restaurant. We then headed back to her place to stay for a night before catching our flight back home the next day at 2pm. We also managed to have breakfast with Jie Jie Sophia's mommy and had a great time at the persimmon farm.

It was a great trip and we had lots of fun.
