down under: pinnacles and sand boarding

i couldnt remember the tour price i paid for this pinnacles visit. hundred sthg aud, i think, it wasnt cheap anyway, for a thrifty person like me!! weather in perth was so crazy. it was cloudy and cool on the 1st and 2nd day. then the 3rd day was extremely hot which i saw a lot of flies flying around us, everywhere we went.

early morning at hostel, waiting for the tour van.

and reaching this privately-run wildlife centre. this stupid koala refused to come down.

so i took a shot of these emus. they are cousin sis to ostrich, so the emus told me. but they forgot to tell me the difference between themselves and the ostriches.

kangaroos.

the tour guide, rom carrying koala.

and this stupid koala cant even react to the camera or ppl around him.

motherly koala and her baby.

more of koala.

i din get to pose wiv a full view of koala. so i hav to pose this sign wth.

pink parrots.

and the crowns on their heads.

this parrot can dance ok!!

the posey rom.

34 degrees celcius. damn so hot man. the local paper said, it was the hottest day in autumn since year 1996. then i became worried of what ling said, "there are always a lot of flies in perth on hot days/during summer..."

so i tried their nestle's vanilla ice-cream.

reaching the pinnacles.

and surrounded by a lot of kukujiao lookalikes.

love story in the desert.

lookout point.

overlooking the dunno-what-beach.

in the tour van.

and i saw this plant board at the seaside. i was looking at it for mins. it doesnt look like a pigface!!

look!! adventurous rom caught this biawak, blue tongue!!

dun get closer, it might bite you!!

and bbq-ing at the seaside.

oh, my poor bearbear preparing lunch, surrounded by damn so many annoying flies.

some burnt sausages.

the lobster!!

i heart lobsters. reason being, im ang-hae's (red-shrimp) daughter. hahahaha. ang-hae is my father's glamorous name, dun play-play.

wind turbines.

and the fish is so tempting. it goes best wiv budu. but i just realised its actually fishing bait. sorry.

showing us the correct way of sand boarding.
