Day 8

yeah...time to pack up time to go home.
I think we r so rush that we don feel as thou we r going home. We came back late at nite n busy packing and mornnig wake up als obusy packing n last min shopping n last min sorting out $$ and rush to airport (Thanks Zhihao and guowen!). Even when we check in , we got some problem as well. We forgot to check in 2 bottles of wine and we almost thought we gotta throw them away. Lucky, we got a tough enough bag, we check in the bag ,with the wine wrap in many layers of plastic sheets. N phew they return to sg safely! =)

Forgot to mention we went to the only casino place, Burswood, 5 people go, 5 ppl lost a total of 450aud. -_- . we played rapid roulette , which was very fun! Each player had their individual touch screen machine and we had to place out bet in 30 sec! that's where i lost 40aud. But we had fun. And there's casino war too. super simple game. Banker and player each had a card, who ever has the bigger card will win! And better still, people watching the game can also bet on the player! nah i watch n i didn play this. keke..




dim sum on the last day b4 leaving.

Day 7

Whole day spend in Albany. Albany is quite different from Perth. Perth is like a big city. Albany is more for tourist and quite a relax place. We travel from Perth, pass by Bunbury, then pass by Busselton n finally reach Margret River(not shown on map) directly below Busselton. That was almost 4 to 5 hours already, include some stopping for meals, petrol, toilet. Then on Day 6, we left Marg River around 4 or 5 to travel towards east, heading to Albany, n finally reach around 11pm at night! The danger of driving at night is , heaps n heaps of kangaroos will jump out !!!!! We were all quite alert to check out for them, the drivers to look out in case banging them, the passengers to look out cos very cute it see! keke... According to ZH, the corect way to drive along the rad is: limit 100 must drive 80, limit 110 also must drive 80, hold tightly to your steering and DO NOT sway to the right if hit the kangaroossss... n....we really saw quite a lot of kangaroo...some alreadi flatten on the side of the road. Some r so tiny n when we saw them, we r so afraid they will jump out! If it's a big 1, n we *touchwood* bang it, the danger is that they might be kill, n our car engine will spoil!! phew...lucky most that we saw didn jump towards us. Kangaroos r known to be attracted to light. So they might jus jump fr the corner of the car!


In the morning, we head down to the visitor centre to grab some maps and ask for some attractions to go to. The staff there was very nice. =) So the first place she told us to go is the quite famous beach. Quite nice la...very fine sand and cold strong wind. So all the girls with dress look like that.keke.


Then we went to the tallest pt to see Albanyyyy.. climb up n up.

awesomeee..too bad cant see whale. So sad. It was not the season. o well.


self time.
i 4got the history of this. :x


The Salmon hole. Heard ppl tried to fish Salmon here. N there is really salmon here. We didn try thou...



We were deciding to go to the vally of the Giant, or to go to whaling place. Its a tough decision. Cos we only got enough time to do 1 thing. :( So since we r there alreadi, we decided to skip valley of the Giant. It's a tree top walk. But choosing the whaleworld is a gd choice too. It's really sad to see how they whales were caught n killed ...n process. =(

The whales r being towed/dragged up fr this point .As illustrated above. kekeke.


The whales were drag up. chop. chop head. meat throw into the chopper. and process. sob.
Lucky they stop this already.

The head saw.
tHIS IS THE lower jaw of the whale! gigantic!


there are 3 of this tanks, for the whale oil.

big big whale skeleton.
muackie!
then we left the whaleworld n went to see the wind farm. there are quite a number of wind mill here to generate power for albany, but albany does not purely rely of windmill onli... It's humongous!
Then we went down the gap.

Two amazing natural features which have been carved from masses of granite over thousands of years by the many forces of nature.The gap, a sheer drop to the waves surging in far below, is an impressive sight, particularly during a winter storm.
