Perth Day 2 – Rottnest Island Fun
May 7, 2009 – 1:00 am*** Warning: TWENTY FIVE EXCITING PICTURES AHEAD ***
Now, this is the long version after my short preview like few weeks ago.
So, after our Day 1 in Perth, we just want to head somewhere and do something. So we visited this youth travel agent on Hay Street to look for stuffs to do for the next 6 days in Perth. Wanted to book our day 2 trip to Rottnest Island but decided not instead. Because we felt that we could do it from scratch.
And, our journey to Rottnest Island began…
#1 – We took a train all the way to Freemantle and from there, we took the Rottnest Ferry over to Rottnest Island. Took us about 30 minutes to reach the island.
#2 – Rue and Jun giving their thumbs up.
#3 – This is me camwhoring upon arrival at Rottnest Island. Wheeee….
#4 – I had to take this shadow picture of us lah…
#5 – We walked over to the visitor centre nearby the main jetty and got ourselves a map. Went over to the Bike Hire place and got ourselves one bike each. Each bike cost us about AUD$ 50 for a day’s rental. Not too bad eh?
$6 – There were 3 tracks to follow and they are Too Easy, about 4KM/1hour; Relax or Snorkel, about 10KM/3hours; and Whole of Island, about 22KM/5hours. We took the Relax or Snorkel route.
#7 – First stop was Hernrietta Rocks. The view was breathtaking! OMG!
#8 – Then, we took a long cycle towards Wadjemup Lighthouse. Whoa! It was killer cycling there.
#9 – We are such a camwhore… aren’t we?
#10 – Next stop will be Oliver Hill Battery, but on our way, we found little Kangawoo. Haha. Or better known as Quokka. Watch out from these cuties… They smack ass man…!!!
#11 – We then reached Oliver Hill.
#12 – Rue and Jun nearly got ran over by the train. Watch Rue duck the train… -_-
#13 – OH! The view there was breathtaking too!! Why the sky in Aussie so nice wan!?
#14 – It’s time to head back and look for food. On the way back we passed by Pearse Lakes.
#15 – The place where all the restaurants are. They call it the Settlement Shops.
#16 – After a nice meal, we headed over to the beach at The Basin.
#17 – I started to play with the beach sand. Writing words like DGMB. See! I brought DGMB all the way to Aussie! Muahahah
#18 – Saw the waves and had an instant idea to draw a heart and make a snapshot of this. NIce or not?
#19 – Took a snapshot of what I found on the beach…
#20 – also a snapshot of Rue taking a dip…
#21 – Made friends with the wildlife there…
#22 – While I’m doing all those, Jun was busy… 
Hahah, tangkap basah!
#23 – It’s approaching late evening and our ferry will be departing soon. Time to go! Bye bye Rottnest Island… *Sniffs*
#24 – We headed back to the city to look for dinner. Dinner was at Arirang and it was a sumptous one. Brought Lee there, our Korean buddy befriended at Old Swan Barracks.
#25 – After dinner, we walked about in the city and I stopped by my shop in Perth and modeled in front of it. -_-
That’s it! That’s my second day in Perth. It was pure pure pure pure pure fun! Epic!
Went back to our backpackers with sore thighs. That’s what you get for not cycling for ages!
