My 3rd Day in Perth...

I got up ard 7am, pretty early as compared to other days. Mum & sis prepared the things for making sandwiches for our lunch later.Headed to the train station and took the train to Perth City.We reached the tour agency right on time, boarded the bus and we were ready to go!!!

Firstly we visited the 'Caversham Wildlife Park'. Here I had the opportunity to touch and feel the real Koalas, hand feeding the Kangaroos & took photos with them. After that we headed to Pinnacles Desert. It took about 1.5hours drive from Wildlife Park to Pinnacles. We stopped by a motel's cafe for lunch then continued the journey after that. We took quite a lot of photos at Pinnacles, some look like an elephant, some are like standing kangaroo...etc We spent about 45mins there, pretty hot when we were there!!

Next, we travelled down to Lancelin. This took us another 2 hours plus...whooh!!! I just slept all the way, pretty tiring, haha! OK, the whole place is covered with sand...smooth white sand. We experienced the 4-wheel driving in the giant 4WD over massive Lancelin sand dunes and the chance to try sand boarding. Initially I thought the sand boarding was pretty scary & fast but actually you may not be able to slide down smoothly and it's highly depends on the texture and the smoothness of the sand. I stopped half way while boarding down, haha!!

Lastly we went back to Perth City. Reached about 7pm, my sis brought me & Mum to have dinner at a Japanese Restaurant called 'Taka'. The food there are not that expensive, ranging from AUD5 and above for a set, free flow of hot tea. After that we went back home to rest.
