chance to see Perth for the first time~

URGHHHHH

damn angry now...Grrrrr *shake my fist in the air*
almost finish writing my bloggie and then the stoppid Internet Explorer just freezes up
Ohh C'mon.... it just kicked me out and closed up the window..even before i could save my ALMOST FINISH bloggie..

#$%&!??%#

*breath, Jasmine, BREATH*


*save my bloggie first*

Perth flights are usually "hibernating" flights with layover for just 24hrs.
Routine: checked in, sleep, go out to buy groceries, sleep and then fly back to Singapore.

Dora, my team gal was meeting up with her friend, Chris in Perth and moi grabbed at the chance to really see Perth for the first time.

At 9.30am, Chris came over to pick us up from our hotel.
Moi totally dig his ride!!! It is so cool that i just had to take a photo with it!!
Chris brought us to Como for brekkie.. Really nice and quaint place.
From where we were sitting, we have a clear view of the scenic lake and people sailing on the catamaran. Totally relaxing..
*saved my bloggie*
It's really interesting to observe the catamaran, especially when it does a turning... I'm not really sure how to describe it, the wind will kinda push the sail the other way, and the people on the catamaran will have to duck really low to avoid getting hit by the sail when it turns. So if you are standing up, imagine your shock when you get hit by the sail just when it turns.....
whoosh~ into the water you go

Unfortunately, we didn't get to see anyone getting into the water.

We ordered poached eggs and pancakes, and polished it off with a wonderful cup of flat white
(Chris: YESH, they DO sell flat white in Singapore) =P

But i do admit that the flat white in Australia taste so much better.
(good to know: flat white was first created in Australia!!)

*saved my bloggie*
Yesh, it looks as well as it taste!!

Went back to the hotel for a little afternoon nappie and met up again for dinner.
Chris brought us to The Oyster bar where they serves half price oysters on Mon and Tue.
Took photos of the skyline of Perth CityDoesn't it look gorgeous?
At sunset, sweet elderly couple enjoying the view *bliss*
Dora says she wanna move to Perth when she retires..
Me and Chris were like: NO WAY!
Say bubye to Chris and his cool ride~
Tabao a log of apple strudel from Corica.
Dora and Chris say their apple strudels are totally out of the world.

it was all smashed up by the time i got home
After a bite of it, i was totally sold!
IT IS the best apple strudel i ever had
*chomp chomp*

I could really taste the apple fillings, the creamy custard just melts in your mouth, and the crust is just so crisp....wahhh, just thinking about it makes me droolz
Hmm...maybe can ask Chris to taobao back for us when he comes back!! HAHA
thanks Chris!! *hint hint*
Speaking of Chris, i'm just so amazed that we have so many mutual friends but yet we dunno each other...It's just so weird~
The world ain't so big after all.. after chatting with him, we realise that i knew his sista (Poor boy spent the whole afternoon wondering why i look so damn familiar!! keke)...then we realise that our friends in BA knew each other... and just awhile ago, we found out that we both knew this guy who's his army mate!!

I mean how coincidental is that?!?! it's just so weird!!! Thinking about it now gives me goosebumpies
The world is really very small indeed .. or maybe Singapore is so small that everyone just know everyone..

*funny*
