Went to Perth, Australia in September. It’s an extended trip for SM’s convocation. We spent 6D5N in Western Australia, together with Shannen & her parents.
Day 1: Perth, Fremantle
Took a midnight flight at 1am, and reach Perth early in the morning. Rented a car, and off we go to Fremantle, a fishing harbor near Perth. We park our car near Esplanade (2nd photo, from left), go for some shopping at Fremantle market [google map street view]. We had some nice strawberries and soft nouget. Before we head back to Perth, we also had the famous Cicerello’s Fish & Chips.
In the evening, we had a wonderful dinner at Ciao Italia. It’s definitely a must-try!

Day 2: Wave Rock, Hyden
It takes 4 hours drive from Perth to reach Wave Rock. It’s a huge rock, with one face look like a crashing wave. On top of it, there’s a small reservoir. Although it’s very dry, there are a lot of wild flowers available in W.A. We also spotted the spider orchard around wave rock. At the end of the day, it’s another 4 hours drive back to Perth.. Really tired!!
Day 3: Busselton Jetty & Margaret River
On the way to Margaret River (Another 4hrs), we stop by Busselton. It’s famous for Busselton jetty, the longest wooden jetty in southern Hemisphere (1.8km!!). It’s really long, not the usual “let’s have a walk on the jetty” kind of experience. We also spotted a wild dolphin during our 1+hrs walk, ![]()
After that, we continue our journey towards Margaret River. We visited Leeuwin Estate for a wine tour, and we also stumble upon Voyager Estate, a wine estate with very grand cellar door.
After the wine tour, we drive around Margaret River, and spotted a site with lots of Kangaroo! One of the kangaroo even stop at the middle of the road, and show us the famous “Kangaroo kena spotlight” look! LOL. (FYI, this is a phrase from Izaac. It means someone with a shocked expression.. Imagine, a kangaroo, both “hands” in front of the body, eye wide open, surprised by the sudden spotlight.. :P)
At night, we stay at a very nice guesthouse/hotel. We love the setting, the room, almost everything. If you going to Margaret River in the future, try Bridgefield.
Day 4: Leeuwin Lighthouse, UWA
Before we leave Margaret River, we decided to visit Leeuwin Lighthouse.
After Leeuwin Lighthouse, we headed straight back to University of Western Australia, for SM’s convocation. The school is very nice, along the swan river and they have a very grand hall for the ceremony.
Day 5: Shopping, Perth
Day 6: Shopping & Back to Singapore
I decided to move on after about a year in Enterprise Quality Center, Borland.
My last day was on 5th September 2008, and the team surprised me with a “farewell cake”. Yeap, it’s a strange way to “celebrate”, but luckily I managed to stop them from putting the candles! LOL…
I’m always thankful for the opportunities given and the heated debates that made me learn. It’s really a short time together, but I had lots of wonderful time. Thank you to all the friendly folks in EQC.

After a short break in Perth, I started my new position in SPH Search. The flagship product is rednano.sg. It’s something I always wanna try!
And a little “welcome” bonus, I’m going to Cebu, Philipines for company retreat! ![]()
