Where we have been here in Perth??? - Perth
Where we have been here in Perth???

As a tourist on a foreign land we wanted to do so much but due to limited time; we have to satisfy ourself by visiting the following places only:

Day 2 - Freemantle
Day 3 - Hillary's Habour & Freemantle again
Day 4 - Perth Zoo in South Perth
Day 5 - Caversham Wildlife Park & Whiteman Park
Day 6 - Kings Park & unexpected VT meeting
Day 7 - Perth CBD area & VT meeting

Day 1 & Day 8 were our travelling days.

We should have gone to the islands - Rottnest & Penguin - for close encounters with other marine life but we have to reserve that for our future trip(s).

At least we got a reason to visit Perth again :)

How we ended up here???
Perth International Airport - Perth

Perth International Airport

My husband and I have always wanted to travel to down under. We initially planned to go to New Zealand but at the very last minute we decided to go to Perth.

We redeemed our Enrich points which we have accumulated thorughout the years travelling with Malaysia Airlines for company's business. We save some money for the airfare but we paid up about USD400 for 2 person for the taxes!!!

BUT.....NO REGRETS AT ALL!!!!


It was the best vacation for both of us so far....and we are thinking of going back....if not sooner it will be later :)

This time we are thinking of Spring.....
