Perth, Western Australia

Sharing some photo of my business trip to Perth, Western Australia....


The famous Fremantle Market....There are over 150 stalls offering everything from ocean-fresh seafood, fruit and vegies, cheeses, freshly baked bread, coffees, gourmet foods, herbs, spices, health food, painted t-shirts, cane-ware, pottery, fantastic clothing, finely crafted jewellery and much much more. ...The building which houses the markets was originally built as a market hall in 1897 and the current building has been restored to its original Victorian grandeur.



This is the car that was given for us to travel around. Look at the size of that tree that I juz came out from, its amazing.....

Spending about 2 hour at Perth Zoo before heading for horse riding........

This cave was originally called Yallingup Cave, after the nearby town. Later it was renamed Ngilgi Cave because of its association with an impressive Aboriginal legend describing the battle between a good spirit named Ngilgi and an evil spirit named Wolgine.


After driving for hours, we finally reach Albany. The Gap and Natural Bridge are fine examples of how beautiful and rugged their coastline is. Waves pound into the Gap and, on rough days, spray rises up over the top. Visitors are advice to take care as the coastline is very unpredictable and dangerous.



Last mintue shopping at the famous "Shark Attack" shop before we return to Singapore.....
