Then after that we went to the Perth City Tour led by Janet and Meng.. It was really fun and I discovered Perth is really a nice place to stay.. I wanna live in Perth and not come back to Singapore!!! T.T
We visited Perth City, HarbourTown, King's Park and took a ferry to Perth Zoo. =)) New experience!! =))
Taken when we were at Perth City.. Fountain with sea gulls bathing in it.. Hahhaa.. We also went to take a look at JB Hi-Fi, which is a shop that sells computer stuffs.. And its cheap!!! Wii set with games, remote and all is around A$379!!!! Omg rite!! Then we also went to rock candy shop and we saw how rock candies are made.. In australia, candies are called lollies.. Hahhaa..After that, we went to HarbourTown!!! Woo Hoo.. Its the place where all the branded stuffs like Adidas and all are discounted!! But due to time constraint, we couldn't shop much.. Hahaha... And in one of the candy shop over there, we saw this:
A golden egg!!! Hahaha.. Its very big!!! Hahahhaa...
This is the bus stop information sign. They have the bus route and the timing of the next bus arriving in how many minutes (as you can see, its 3 minutes before the bus arrive). And its really on time!!! Amazing!!! Oh yea.. FYI, any bus that is a 'CAT' (as in named yellow cat, red cat and blue cat), they are FREE for all riders!!! Cool huh!!! =))) This is what it looks like on the bus:
Then we went to King's Park.. The view is simply beautiful!! Let the pictures speak for themselves.. =)))
The nice scenery of King's Park...
The Wishing Well which has a very shallow depth.. Hahaha.. Didn't wish for anything though. Haha.. Coz I don't wish for anything much to happen at all.. I'll just accept whatever that comes my way.. Hahahhaa! 
People sitting on the grass to enjoy the sunshine at King's Place.. Carmen suggested to have a barbie there! Hahaha! FYI, barbie refers to BBQ in Aus. Hahaha!
This is a memorial fountain dedicated to the people of Western Australia by *squirm eyes* Admiral Sir Frederick.. Its really beautiful.. Wanted to take a sip but due to time constraint and the group leaving me behind, I can't.. Hahhaa.. 
Side view of the fountain...
Ok. This is the real deal for the King's Park.. You see that guy (one of our friend sitting down there.. He can actually speak to someone who is like 500m apart without shouting just by sitting there.. Super cool.. Tried it and it really works!! =)) And this is the actual distance (marked by tiny little red arrows):
And this is the middle part of the 'effective communication without shouting to someone so far away' stand. You can see that there's fire burning in the middle of the fountain.. Its actually to commemorate those who fought in the war... "Let silent contemplation be your offering"...After visiting King's Park, we went to take a ferry (operated by Transperth) to the zoo where the uni bus will pick us up.. Nothing much to say about it.. Just that it was really a nice ride and no difference as to being in a car or in the ferry.. That's how stable the ferry was.. I think it is a 5-10 minutes ride... =)
The inside of the ferry..Then after that we went back to hostel.. Cooked really yummy food!! There's chicken rice (as in the flavoured 'chicken rice' rice), stir fry broccoli with chicken and mushroom and roasted chicken from IGA. DELICIOUS!! Hahaha.. I MISS CHICKEN RICE FROM UPPER THOMSON ROAD!!!! T.T!!!!!!
The food that we cooked...And that's all for today! =)) Tml's another day at orientation... Zzzzz....
