Hey you guys.... yeah! It's been a long time since I last updated my blog. Not that I'm lazy or anything, it's just that I've been busy with all my holidays activities...ha ha ha! One of my very good friend from Singapore ca,me to visit so has been showing him around Perth. He's Yan Chang actually. So today, here I am sitting in a cyber cafe (full story up ahead) typing a general entry to keep my fellow loyal visitors updated. From the 22 of June to the 28 of June, Yan Chang came from Singapore to visit both me and Ian. It was very nice of him. So of course we naturally became his tour guide for Perth. Brought him to so many places and maximised his 7 day tour here in Perth.

The day he arrived, we brought him down to Freo to have some of our famous Cicerello's fish and Chips, then went to have some dessert at Cold Rock. A really special Ice Cream aplour where you can add all sorts of different chocolates, sweets and stuff into the ice cream itself.

The next day, brought him to Mathilda's Bay to have an Ozzie outdoor BBQ complete with mushrooms, onions and BBQ sauce and not forgetting the hot dogs and stuff. It was a surprise party for Meisi and Raine too. Ian baked them a cake, boy were they surprised and Ian's cake was real good too! Success again. The night was followed by late night shopping in the city and all of us picked up some good bargain from Harbourtown itself. After that, we sent Amelia to the airport (who went home to Singapore for the winter break) before heading down to Burswood. Showed Yan Chang around the Casino. Didn't played anything but went there for some real cheap supper....ha ha!

Saturday was a full day for us as well. After sending Huiqian to the airport, we immediately left for Swan Valley where we drove round the wine district for some winte tasting and bought some fruits as well as visited the Chocolate factory as well. Then, went to Caversham Wildlife Park for the Ozzie experience. Yeah... got to feed and see the Kangaroos, the Tasmanian Devil, Kookabaru, the Dingos and other Ozzie animals...ha ha! It was fun I must say. Then, we ended our day with the famous Little Caesar's Pizza. The pizza was great and even bought back another one for supper while we watched World Cup.

After Church on Sunday, brought him around Murdoch Uni to have a look before heading down to the Fremantle market to soak into the local scene and also to get some of Perth's local products.

Monday and Tuesday, we took a road trip down South to show him around Perth's Country side. Went down to Margaret River for some serious wine tasting and also for the beautiful scenery of the countryside and the beautiful beaches.

Then, on Tuesday night, I left for the Eastern States. So I was in Sydney for the past few days. Basically from Wednesday morning to Saturday. On Saturday morning, drove for about 12 hours up to Queensland, Gold Coast. Now, I'm in a Cyber Cafe at Surfer's Paradise writing to you guys this entry. Sydney was real fun seeing the Opera House, the Harbour Bridge, walking around the city and Darling Harbour. I'm starting to miss it already. Met up with my cousin Angela for dinner at this Pancake place. Sad that we can only meet for a while. So see you back in Singapore in December!

Today, I'm at Gold Coast. Just spent a day in Dreamworld going for all the rides. I tell you, I tried all the most thrilling rides already. Nothing can stop me now. Tomorrow will be going to Sea World. There is still Movie World and Went n Wild to go! So here I come. And all you folks hang in there! I may not be able to blog for the next few days but no worries, will keep you all updated as soon as I can. Be well!
