Western Australia - Back to Perth

It was a gruesome 5 hours drive back to Perth City. I was very sad that my holiday was ending and I had to leave this amazing apartment at the harbor side. We had our breakfast at one of the café at York Street. I enjoyed the big portion of scrambled eggs, bacon and toast, while Alfred was happily tucking into his pancakes. It was a lovely day with beautiful weather. I love having my breakfast like that.

We arrived at Perth at 4.30pm and we drove straight to Fremantle for early dinner. There were many cafes at Fremantle and the famous weekend market was however only opened on Sunday. This was my 3rd time at Fremantle and I'm here again for the 2nd time to try out Western Australia #1 fish and chips at Cicerellos. Prices were reasonable and you'll get decent seafood platter at only AUD21 dollars. Well, I still love their fish and chips. My hubby likes it as well.

Grilled fish taste great as well

The interior of the restaurant never changed since my last visit in 2005. I've heard that they had changed several owners but still the battered fish tasted great as ever.

You can sit outside if you do not mind the seagulls staring at you

After the dinner, we took a walk along the harbor to catch the amazing sunset view. My holiday had indeed ended fast. I was sad to leave but well, time to work hard and look forward to my next destination.

Mauritius, An Island of Emotion

Mauritius, is an island nation in the Indian Ocean off the southeast coast of the African continent. Together with my Diva friend, we travelled to Mauritius in 2014 for our first ever girls trip or what we called as our "Elephant & Hippo Honeymoon". Although Mauritius is an island, the entire island is at least twice bigger than Singapore. Flights to Mauritius are somewhat limited. The airlines that flew to Mauritius include Air Mauritius, Emirates, British Airway and Air France. From Singapore, it took about 10 hours to reach Mauritius, including an hour transit at KL. Despite the long haul flight, I would say Mauritius is worth the visit at least once in your lifetime. I'm glad to have traveled with my Diva friend to this exotic place.

Amanohashidate, a place of tranquility

I once stumbled upon a postcard of Amanohashidate and was instantly mesmerized by the stunning beauty of this enchanting destination. So, where exactly is Amanohashidate? Nestled in the serene northern region of Kyoto Prefecture, this tranquil town is easily reachable by train from Kyoto Station. We boarded the Hashidate Limited Express, a comfortable ride that whisked us away on a scenic journey, taking approximately 2.5 hours to arrive at the Amanohashidate Station. To truly embrace the magic of this place, I highly recommend setting out early in the morning, allowing you to bask in the breathtaking landscapes and arrive long before the afternoon sun casts its warm glow over the serene waters and lush greenery. Before making our way up to the Amanohashidate Viewpoint, we dropped our luggage at our hotel, Taikyourou, just an 8-minute walk from the Amanohashidate Train Station. Since it was still early in the day, many of the restaurants in town hadn't opened for lunch yet. ...

A Little Gem Outside Bangkok @ Khao Yai - Day 2

It was a eventful day for us as we planned to visit all the places listed below. 1. Primo Piazza, The Little Italy of Khao Yai Primo Piazza is a picturesque inspired Tuscan village situated in Pak Chong. This place is definitely worth your instagram pictures where the Italian style architecture is set dramatically in a lush greenery. Aside from the Italy feel, the main attraction is perhaps the pretty barn that keeps the sheep, alpaca and donkeys. You can feed these animals and which is included in the entrance fee. The kids were absolutely delighted. Personally, I feel that the area was not too big and hence on a crowded day it may be a little hard to take pictures without being photo-bombed. It would also be nice to have the sheeps running about or gazing in the field. 2. Birder's Lodge Cafe and Farmer's Market Birder's lodge Cafe is near the Primo Piazza and just...
