The eerie limestone shapes of the Pinnacles are a popular day trip from Perth, rising out of the desert floor like something from a lunar landscape. The weather-worn pillars were formed by zillions of seashells blown here from the sea many thousands of years ago. The surrounding landscape is made up of desert and dunes. Bottlenose dolphins can be seen in nearby Hangover Bay, and in the park you’ll also see gray kangaroos, emus, cockatoos and other birds. Learn more about the ecology and biodiversity of this country at the Pinnacles Desert Discovery interpretive center, with displays, information, shops and lookout.

While you’re here, take the opportunity to swim and laze on white-sand beaches, try fishing or snorkeling, or bring a picnic and cook up a storm on the park’s barbecues. The Pinnacles are in Nambung National Park, 245 km (152 miles) north of Perth, around a three-hour drive by 4x4 or coach tour. Welcome to City Sight Seeing Perth.

Checking Into Fremantle | joey'space. Fremantle is a city in Western Australia, located at the mouth of the Swan River. Once we landed in Perth on a beautiful Saturday morning, we took a 45 minutes drive to Fremantle. If you know your way around Perth, I am pretty sure it will take you less than 45 minutes.

I enjoy taking overnight flights but an overnight flight to Perth from Singapore is merely 5 hours. By the time we board, take off, serve drinks, watch a movie and have breakfast, we are ready to land. All of us were exhausted. I had less than 2 hours of sleep, the movies available onboard were quite entertaining. Weather at Fremantle was a little shaky.

We checked into our apartment just before lunch. After we washed up, we visited the Fremantle Markets on South Terrance, towards end of Market Street. We settled at the Freo Markets Bar for brunch as we were all too tired and exhausted to explore further. Sleepy little niece on Weili’s shoulder. When night falls, we went out for a scroll along Market Street. Road trippin': Perth and Margaret River | live every lastminute - lastminute.com.au last minute blog.

G O H: Perth trip (Day 1)

Touched down from Penang in the evening, went home to pack my bag and at 5am the next morning, I found myself on my way back to the airport again. This time, it was to Perth to look my for dear girlfriend! I gave my word saying that I will definitely visit her since day 1 when she was still a freshman in UWA. 3 years flew past and if I still don't fulfill my promise before she graduates and come back for good at the end of this year, she's never going to trust what I say ever again.

Haha I was pretty stoked about this trip because it was my first flight where I'm all on my own. I came to Perth completely unprepared as I didn't had the luxury of time to do so. To start off our Day 1, we headed to Mrs S for lunch right after I touched down. Dining in cafes/restaurants here ain't cheap like what I thought, prices wise is fairly comparable to the those in Singapore. We shared The Manwich which is pulled pork with beetroot, pickles, cucumber, rocket in ciabatta.

Perth - Day 1..................................................... So the day finally came. The day I'd finally leave the country and head over to beautiful Perth. The decision to leave the country was so sudden that it was still pretty unbelievable that 2 weeks later I'd be in a foreign land all by myself.

Sleeping the night before was almost impossible because I was just so excited that the whole night I was pretty much tossing and turning in bed. The only places I've been to are Malaysia, Indonesia(Bintan & Bali), Thailand(Bangkok) and I guess that's pretty much about it. I never knew my parents would agree to such a trip. So when the day finally came, I was scared I admit, but I was so excited that waking up in the morning didn't seem to be a problem at all, unlike other school days. I was so happy that some of my friends actually came down to send me off! My parents came at a later time. Omar and I! Louis Tan my favourite boy! Forever a clown. hahaha Cool boys! Wannabe boyband?
