Perth Getaway Season 3

We visited the famous Aussie mascots on the second day. Yeah, I was referring to kangaroos and koalas. We went to Marapana Wildlife World, which houses a wide variety of animals. Be patient, dear. I will show you the animals as I blog along, okies? They were really cute and some were ... erm... funny and hideous.

Ok, here we go. The entrance fee was AUD16 for adult and it included a small bucket of animal snacks for you to feed the beasts. The first thing we saw as we entered the park was Mr and Mrs Koala with their newborn baby koala.

Family picture of the koalas. Did you notice Mrs koala hugging baby koala? Yes? Good. No? Go have your eyes checked then.
Koala series. Koala bears sleep for 20 hours per day and their staple food is Eucalyptus. Yes you read me right. They eat 桉樹
Pretty koala keeper giving a briefing. And we managed to take a snap with her.
Faster please. I'm scared!
They can defecate even when sleeping. Their shit is small in size and green in colour. Gross? Oh well. That's me.
A pathetic-looking lamb
I have no idea how it got up there
Careful. They bite. You don't wanna lose a finger.
This big darling here suddenly appeared from nowhere
This cute & round chicken with a boot-cut jeans looking feet seemed lost

Next, I want to introduce you to a very funny animal. Llama (Soon's best friends) :P

I gotta tell you these things here are really great posers

Didn't I tell you that they are great posers? See what I meant now?
Can you see what are these? This field is full of shits. A mixture of Llama, goat and kangaroo shits. Luckily they were dried. Or else it must be very fragrant.
That's Soony feeding the boar and sows. The boar made its way through and snorted out loud while Soony was feeding the sows. And she actually scolded the boar as if it could understand her language. Good job, Soony!
You will not find any photos of me feeding any of the creatures. I couldn't stand the feeling of their wet noses and mouths touching my hands as they gobble down their food gluttonously. Eeewww... Did I tell you I'm freaked out by furry things which can move?
Jump, you lazy bums. Don't lan yau ying there!

After spending the morning of animal chasing, we needed to recharge ourselves and thus, we bought some Hungry Jack's burgers and ate in the car (to save time). Our next destination was Cottesloe a.k.a Scarborough Beach. I became numb being blown by the strong sea breeze. The beach here was very clean and sandy. I repeat, SANDY and not pebbly beaches as you can see somewhere else. The air was so refreshing!

We then went to buy the famous apple strudle and went shopping in Belmont. In the evening, we took Snaga out for an evening stroll. Normally, we will see the dog being led by the owner. But for Soon's case, it's totally the opposite. LOL! Snaga would get hyper excited when it sees another dog or even a passer by.

Apple strudle. Delicious!

Snaga is very afraid of passing drain and Soon has to carry the 13kg dog everytime there's a drain. Haha! Sorry, Soon. I have to post your photos but don't worry. It's very small and unclear. It's not ugly by the way. It's cute. Hehehe... When she notice the camera lens and the shutter was about to be pressed, she would flung the dog all the way to the other side, thus protecting the dog's face but exposing her own. Haha!

We had Vietnamese cuisine for dinner in ... erm ... I forgot the name of the restaurant. Anyway, the food was tasty too. After dinner, we went to Burswood Casino, which is Soon's favourite place! Once inside, Soon darted immediately to the Blackjack table, without wasting any time. You know, time is very precious for her. Haha! Mom also gambled a little (AUD50) and won AUD35. That would be RM105. LOL! Happy. I'm not a gambler. So I'm easily contented.

Soon's favourite place

We went home at around 10pm. And did I tell you that Perth has no night life? The residents here live a very relaxed life and normally would just stay at home during the night. So, the night is not young anymore for me in Perth. Believe it or not, I slept at 10.30pm in Perth. Unbelievable? Well, it's true though.

I'm tired of blogging today. Guess I'll just stop here. I will be taking you to Perth City in my coming blog. So stay tuned! Nitey nite...

BOO!
