perth is a big place
11:26 PM

As part of my enjoy-while-you-still-can campaign, I've been going out very often to explore big big perth before uni starts next week!
First was a trip to the museum! Most photos are in liying's phone though, since her camera is better. but this is me kinda horrified next to the skeleton of some famous race horse. /shudders skeletons are so freaky! they had like all sorts, elephant, hippo, camel, koala, dolphin and tons of others. The other exhibitions were also very interesting. They had everything from earth's magma to outer space and everything in between from dinosaurs to modern age electric knifes.

And then, yesterday i joined april, aden and his aunt to AQWA at hillarys harbour. It's only the second time i've been to hillarys. it was so awesome. the weather was fantastic! i loved the view. and the beach! the sand was so soft and the ocean was limitless! as usual. all the beaches here have the most amazing view! photos from normal cameras do them no justice at all, i say. you need at least like a 5mm or less lens for that! if that is ever possible. it was just so wide, so wide its more than your eyes can even see!

This is just part of the harbour. Forgotten to take a photo of AQWA though. The inside is pretty much like underwater world. But shorter tunnel and larger place. With more funky creatures.

stingray!! i want to eatttttt!

i think close ups of fish are very cute. they look stunned.

i like this coral!! very happy looking!! its called a daisy coral or something.

croc! they only had a very very tiny live saltwater croc.. not big ones like this. crocs are very amazing creatures. and a very random and unrelated fact: there is a one in ten chance of dying from eating fugu! and another one: sharks can lose up to 30 000 teeth in their life time! see, how educational such trips are!

The outdoors is so windy!! this is one of the few with my hair not all over the place. ahhh winter is really here... super windy every where! and this was the stingray bay with very few stingrays. we missed the stingray guided tour though.

Look what i found at coles!!! it's the local version of marks and spencers' percy pig and pals!! it tastes exactly the same, looks exactly the same! fantastic!!! I can so finish one pack a day. They are the most amazing not greasy gummies ever!! Its sad how many counterfeits of this gummy there is! But yay, now i know that home brand food are edible. Just like how i loved the woolies assorted biscuits. so nostalgic the taste.

had steamboat tonight with the housemates. yum!!
its our first dinner together after so long! daniel sure can cook up a feast!
