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.

Jeju, an island of love and romance Day 2

From its summery island beaches to its statuesque Hallasan Mountain, verdant O'Sulloc green tea fields, and its iconic Sunrise Peak @ Seongsan IIchubang, Jeju Island is an icon in South Korea. Not forgetting the famous Jeju tangerine, a citrus fruit lauded across Jeju island at large. Hence, we decided to go to a local tangerine farm to find out. I couldn't quite remember the name of the tangerine farm but it took us quite some time to locate it. The farm was near a neighborhood where every household grew their own tangerine trees at their yard/garden. It was quite a sight as this was my first time seeing a tangerine tree. Anyway, if you like oranges and the idea of trampling through the orchards in search of that perfect fruit, then you've got to come during the tangerine season (which is like from November onwards). Tangerine picking in my opinion is quite an inexpensive activity in Jeju. We googled this tangerine farm not far from the city where tourists and...

Mauritius, An Island Of Emotion @ Chamarel, Black River Gorges and great Seafood lunch

1. Seven Coloured Earth @ Charamel The Seven Coloured Earth is a geological formation and prominent tourist attraction found in the Chamarel Plain of Riviere Noire District in South-western Mauritius. How interesting! It is in fact a relatively small area of sand dunes comprising sand of seven distinct colours (i.e. red, brown, violet, green, blue, purple and yellow). In fact, the colours are dependent on the sunlight. The main feature of the place is that since these differently coloured sands spontaneously settle in different layers, dunes acquire a surrealistic, striped colouring. At the entrance of the Seven Coloured Earth, there is this beautiful Chamarel Waterfall. Although this is not the most magnificent waterfall that I've seen, this waterfall is the highest in Mauritius.
