Ok.. I have had these photos uploaded and ready for blogging but did not find the time for posting a new blog. So in the calm of this morning’s lull.. I had better get it done first :p
They really do have really nice houses over there.

For the price of a double storey link house, you get a nice single storey bungalow house. For the price of a double storey semi-D, you get a REALLY nice bungalow over there. Of course, dollar to dollar. We had some time so we went browsing for houses.

Most of the houses have got a driveway. Most of them..

We went to a show village. A whole area filled with showhouses from various builders.

There were lots of them there. And apparently…. these show houses, once they are done, you can buy them… lock, stock and barrel!! can you see yourself living there? I would not mind driving up to one of these after a hard day’s work…

I would not mind. They are tastefully furnished!!

There are one or two.. actually two.. double storey showhouses. But mostly they prefer single storey homes.

And they love their garden. However, their gardens are usually at the back. This is a shot from the front tho..

And they love openess. Everywhere you see large glass doors or windows. This is from the masterbedroom. the doors open up to their own garden. So it’s still private and you would not have strangers walking up to the glass door to see what you are doing in your master bedroom. Only your housemates can do that.

See.. large doors/windows.

More large doors and windows. This is one of the show houses.. the view from the back patio.

Large doors and windows… from the living room.. and kitchen

Another house with large doors and windows.. note the BBQ stuff outside?

The Aussies love their BBQs.

I would love BBQs if I have their weather… and their cheap, yet juicy and tasty beef cuts..

I think it is best that I separate my Aussie trip into several parts. Otherwise it would be a long wait for a blog entry. As always, I am guessing that the Aussie trip entries would be more photos than words, which I think is best lar. hoh? Some of the photos, I have uploaded to Facebook previously. So some of you might have seen some of the photos here before. But what the heck, Facebook and Kamkuey.com ..not the same mar….

This is the view of my uncle’s backyard.

Another view from just across the street from my uncle’s house. A park just next door. How nice

That’s me… with a cap soo small for my oversized head. Aunt insisted that we brought along a cap each. Sound advice as the sun over there can be rather harsh.

With not a cloud in sight.. and a cooling weather with nice cool breeze, you would not realise that your skin is being cooked by the sun.

A warning sign before you enter the pathway. Apparently the land down under has got the most dangerous/poisonous creatures anywhere.

It was a lovely morning… and we had a really nice walk in the park… and bush

.. and thru wide open fields

I thought this retaining wall was interesting.. so I took a photo of it

Went to Fremantle..

Had fish and chips here…I am not too sure that the lines are for. But I am guess to barr the birds from landing directly unto the umbrellas/tables.

the famous fish and chips. Not so nice lar.

Lots of.. erm.. birds waiting around to pounce on unfinished food

At Kings Park.. the spiral DNA tower.

And the view from the top of the tower.

And we took a stroll through the park. We did lots of strolling and walking in Perth. Weather permitted walking. Here, you would loose a pound or two from sweating!!

Interesting tree. Like ultraman uprooted a tree and poked the three back into the earth upside down.

Lots and lots of flowers everywhere. Even wild flowers growing on the side of roads and around your house. Here, it would be weeds, weeds and more weeds in between lalangs!!

And then we walked some more.

A community mall… looks like Alamanda in putrajaya… or rather.. alamanda looks like this community mall.

a RM12 cup of coffee

Me with the RM12 cup of coffee

A monastary…. that’s my elder brother.. who somehow came into the frame as I was composing.

Errr.. I do not know who this is, but I thought this pic is nice so I posted it up

Aaah.. so peaceful here.

Not the bird park. Still at the monastery. This fella and some of his friends came during lunch. haha. It’s a very nice and tranquil place.
Ok.. here ends part 2

Will work on Part 3 soon Will be blogging about my trip south of Perth.
Check back soon ya?

Sorry guys, I know some of you have been waiting to see some photos from Perth. I have uploaded some to my facebook profile but I guess I should also update my blog with some. Unfortunately I do not have the full set with me. But no matter, I do have a few photos in my notebook. Will update with Part 2.. or possibly Part 3 soon.

These are various shots, in no particular order. All taken with my trusty 5mp Ixus55

First day in Perth. A bunch of us going for a morning walk at a park which was just in front of my uncle’s house. How nice

Oh.. I have to tell you guys this. My flight to Perth was at midnight. Which meant that I would touch on in Perth and walk out the airport door into what I thought would be a cold chilly.. and dark… 5am or 6am. So I bought along my jacket/windbreaker which was rather thick. Wasted. I walked out Perth’s airport only to be greeted by the glorious morning sun which casted long shadows. Dem.. I should have taken a picture.

Dem I look fat!!!

The glorious clear blue skies!!

Path meandering through the park… and the clear blue skies… glorious!!

Dem I look a bit ’soft’ here.. hahaha

Better angle??

The park.. very well taken care of. Lots of flowers.. so nice.

This photo was taken when Perth was about 35 celcious. It was hot!!
So, this is about it for today. Have to dig into my archives to find some more photos Check back tomorrow for possibly another update
