fremantle

today is a lovely sunday. the weather's nice and sunny, and i went out to new places again! This time around, we go Fremantle! 
i go Immanuel Church for sunday service again. such a nice place with nice people. We went there by bus, took us around 40 mins to reach there. i tell you, i almost puke in the bus, maybe it's because i havent eat that morning or the bus driver is driving the bus insanely fast and brake with a sudden stop makes me feel sick.
after a short horrible nap in the bus, we finally arrived. 
 the people there doing stunts and tricks along the fremantle street. there are also a lot who sing and plays guitar, accordion and artists showing out their artworks.
 a lot of stuff selling inside here.
 all different kinds of cheese.
 very cheap and sweet good fruits.
 something i don think we had in malaysia or do we?, the olive and chilli pickles. still, i do not dare to try it.
 pretty cute little cupcakes!

 bagels
 hotdogs! it is good, not the bun but the sausage itself. :P
 macaroons. rose, mocha, chocolate, mango, lemon, pistachio, you name it.
 lots of macaroons
 had my first try. a bite of it and im sorry to say i hate macaroons now. it's extremely sweet! the whole thing is made of sugar, i bought 'rose' and it tastes exactly like white sugar. it costs me $2 and i threw it away after my first bite. guys, don eat too much okay if you love macaroons, this small little tidbits can really cause diabetes mellitus.
 ee bought blueberry. i think it is nice for taking pictures only. no doubt it's cute and colourful.

 this is so good! nutella french pancakes. it's just a simple pancakes with nutella but it tastes really good. then we actually planned to eat the famous japanese ramen there but it's a long queue. needs to wait for 30 mins so we gave up and walked elsewhere. we came to this arcade nearby.
 and we saw this!
 Grab an Ice Cream machine! i don think many people succeed in this. cause it looks so difficult to pick a stick ice cream up. especially the cones? no possible.
 Fremantle Clock Tower
 an anglican church nearby. it's open for visitors.

 lovely and colourful glass windows.
 this church is welcoming christian couples to make their commitments and vows here. there's old wedding photos and marriage prayer. really sweet and i still remember the last sentence, 'May we honor You as we become one, Amen.'

 traditional pipe organs. really cool. i wonder how they actually played it.

 random photos along the way.
 then we take the train home.
 Fremantle Railway Station
 and we saw this cute car! look, doesnt it looks like some cartoon?! so cute!
 Perth harbor. Cruises and ships depart and arrive here.

 pretty aint it. :) a park nearby lynwood, sarah's house.

caversham wildlife park

it's 'seeing australian wildlife animal's day! it's a 30 mins drive from lynwood. we planned to wake up at 8am but unfortunately we all slept late and ended up going down the road at 10:30am. heh. anyway, it's quite a short distance so we arived at around 11 something. so here we are at Caversham Wildlife Park. it is located in Whiteman's Park. Whiteman's Park is huge! there's also a motor museum inside there, displaying old classic motors and cars. there's actually a railway station that is still working till today. unfortunately we only went to the wildlife park due to various reasons, money is one of them.
 look at the sign! kangaroo, duck and ducklings, and guess what's the last picture,. it's tortoise! thank God everything was planned. we never thought we actually arrived there right when the 'meet wombat and friends' is ongoing. so we straight away headed to see 'em.
 the CUTE owl. sorry, i dont know what is it called. 
 this is possum. it's actually carnivore.
 wombats awaited.
 smelly, quite an ugly animal, :P wombat. 
one of the 'friends', coockatoo. and alot more of them actually, but i cant afford to upload them all. 
after we meet the wombat and friends, we walked around the park to see the enclosure animals.
 this is the fox! i never know a fox can eat a human until today. the fences you see, is an electric fences. O.O we met 'Dingo, an asian wolf, Kookaburra, laughing bird, very cool Eagle, scary Emu and alot more!
 then, we met KOALAS!
 naww, so cute! there's around five to six koalas in a row of eucalyptus leaves. they smells so nice! sarah even joked and said even their pee and poo smells nice too! 
 next was kangaroos! there's a huge field full of kangaroos there. we can touch 'em feed 'em and take photos with them. FOC, all of the animals above as well except for those in cage.
 we were pretty scared at the first place. you can see we're actually a distance from the kangaroos.

 then we started to love them!
 kangaroo food. 
  feeding the kangaroo.!
 notice that small little legs?! the baby kangaroo actually puts the whole head and body inside the mother kangaroo's pouch.
 albino's kangaroo is super cute.

 molly's farm is the last station we went. lots of animals inside as well.
we all assumed it's an african sheep. it looks like it has a brown cape on his back.
 look at that awesome goat, he's posing like a boss on that big trunk.

 we all wanna try a self take photo with the ram and sheeps. too bad only burt and ee succeed. oh well..

1.00pm it's farm show! 
 that's the shearing machine. we watched the whole shearing the sheep process. it was cool. but i feel pity for the sheep tho. i think it's painful and suffering for them. you can actually see some cuts on them. we also watched how kelpies, one of the coolest dog breed mustering the sheep. these dogs have been doing this job for over 200 years! and oh! we milk the cow too. the name's brenda. it's too huge to fit in the camera.

we say goodbye to caversham wildlife park at around 3.00pm and we were starving! we headed to the nearest Nando's.

the hot peri-peri chicken is really good. it's a portugese food.
it's a saturday so i went to youth as well. it was really cool. Immanuel Methodist Church. i'll keep coming till im going home. ;)
