Getting There.. ( Or anywhere for the matter)
GPS & A CAR
Day 1 - The Ba Kwa Escapade
"Ba Kwas never make it out of Perth's airport. EVER."
Challenge accepted.
Bought a vacuumed packed 450gm packet of Ba Kwa from Bee Cheng Hiang and tripped with this bad boy.
...
5 Hours later, upon arrival at Perth International Airport
I bump into the usual Ba Kwa addict enthusiastically screaming "SINGAPORE? Declare BA KWA here".
With fingers crossed, I declared my box of precious Ba Kwa.
...
30 mins later, after thorough checking of Mr ba kwa's packaging, we were free to go.
Whoohoo!

Day 2 - Rottness Escapade (Fremantle > Rottness)
Caught a ride on Rottness Express < Click for ferry timings and pricing
Spent the first couple minutes rushing through lunch (check out hugeass Fish&Chips in photo) and half an hour trying to track Quokkas by following poop traces; which really wasn't necessary as these marsupials can be found throughout the island.
Took a 1.4km walk from the Pier to "The Basin"
Totally worth it.
And uhh.. keep off the cliffs. I had palpitations snapping the following photos.
Day 3 - Little Creatures Brewery (Fremantle) | Club Air | The Brass Monkey (Bar)
Had a glass of Rose and a plate of cheesy Nachos with Randy
Total Burn: Aud 40
Random "sing-along" sesh in the car while heading from Freo to Armadale
Walked about Armadale in search for food and came across this bong shop called Could 9
They didn't sell weed, still pretty cool nonetheless.
After snacking on a ton of chicken, we headed to Brass Monkey Hotel (Bar) for a couple rounds of shots before ?partying out? at Club Air.Would rate the whole experience a 6/10. Add a point to that for cheap booze.
To be fair, Perth isn't know for its nightlife and I come from SG;
The land of bakwa, shit-good food, expensive booze, nightlife and drunken SPGs.
Total Damage Breakdown:
Entrace to Air (Before 9pm) Aud 5
1 glass of Cape Codder (Cranberry Vodka) Aud 10
2 Jaager shots at Brass Monkey Aud 36
5 Tequila pops (shots) at Brass Monkey Aud 50
Metered Fare Back to Armadale Aud75
Day 4 MORNINGI woke up to a massive hangover (thanks to Tequila. Bad Tequila, Bad) along with a box of aromatic half eaten Bok Bok Chickens.
I was told that the shop wasn't called Bok Bok .. whatever. It clearly says "Bok Bok" on the box.
Wasted my morning away.
Not too proud of it.
Day 4 EVENING
Evening was a little more eventful, met a friend for some drinks and sh*tty movies.
HOW TO BE SINGLE
Ahh Rebel Wilson.
Gotta love her.
Yes, I did that. Just randomly added in that line. BECAUSE I CAN.
So level 1 happens to be an automobile workshop (aka. the place where I can surgically remove your kidneys to sell in the black market) and level 2 the living, kitchen and bedroom. Yep. Took a pic of le friend's place. Not creepy at all.
Day 5 - Breakfast By The Bay (The Foreshore) & The Range (Belmont)
Breakfast at 12pm ✔
Hot Cocoa with Floaty Marshmallows ✔
Berries & Pancakes with Mascarpone Cream ✔
^ best shit on earth
Thanks Michael 😺
Lone Ranges Shooting Complex
Evening
Took long a** drive from Armadale to the City (35 mins)
Got HANGRY along the way and came across this magical Kebab store which had the baddest Steak Kebabs on the planet.
Sauce to add: Chilli
Sauce to add now and regret later: Onion (I died choking on my own fart that night)
Damage: Worth it Aud 9
Plus point: TURKISH DELIGHTS at Aud 2 & Cheese Fries Aud 6
Walk along the streets of Perth and came across this eerie Synagogue and Fire station.
Yep, I know what you're thinking - "Obviously, idiot, who the hell does that at 10pm on a Sunday.. In Perth?"
12MN-ish?
We're back at Nicole's place (yes, I've stayed at 3 different homes this trip.. fackin' freeloading Hobo)
"I am cow, here me moo, eat my steak and I'll make your fart smell like poo"
Remember when I said "Onion Sauce, enjoy now, suffer later"?
We had the whole "Hot Box"experience going on. Definitely LIVING THE LIFE.
Day Oh-Fack-It's-Time-To-fly-Home
Blasted 9am flights
Got up at 6am to pack and... poof.
I'm out of Perth. 💔
