[AU holiday] Short Getaway to Perth, W.A

Although I still have 1-2 pending posts for my United States holiday, I simply can't wait to share my experience on my trip to Perth, W.A, via my humble blog! Before I blog about my Perth experience, I want to share my experience in Fremantle. I went on a getaway/trip to Perth during the long weekend holiday.
 
I took a midnight flight on Friday (May Day) to Perth, and the flying time to Perth is only 4hrs. We had pre-booked a driver prior to arriving, and upon reaching the airport, he picked us up and sent us to our stay which is located at Bull Creek.
 
 
We travelled to Fremantle by public bus which took us 20mins, and we took a random selfie while waiting for the bus to come.
 
 
 
I like being a tourist, as I am able to do random things freely, such as taking a group photo with our selfie stick, or special photo-effect photos by using fish-eye lens on the bus! We might look weird in the locals' eyes, but oh well, who cares as I am on holiday!

 
We alighted from the bus at Fremantle Market, and we made our way to Fremantle Fish Boat Harbour by foot which took us about 10minutes. 

 
 
 

 
We were heading for lunch at one of the best fish & chips restaurant in Perth, a restaurant called Cicerello's which was located at fishing pier at Fremantle. This place is huge and is one place nobody could possibly miss if they were walking from the city centre to the harbour!

 
 
 
 
 
Cicerello's bears an awesome location to enjoy the view while dining by the sea. It was autumn season, and the weather is cooling so we decided to head to the alfresco dining area outside.  
 
 
Cicerello's has a self-service system, so we ordered our food at the counter, after making our payment, we were given an electronic tag. We were allowed to choose our own seats at the restaurant, hence in short, everything is DIY! When the food was ready, the electronic tag will buzz to notify patrons that the food was ready at the food counter.
 
 
We ordered Traditional Fish & Chips (AUD14.60) and Seafood Tray (AUD21.15)
 
 
 
We also had Deluxe Chowder (AUD25) and Half Dozen of Fresh Oysters (AUD17.35)
 
 
Lastly, we ordered a Jumbo Seafood Platter that was meant for sharing for 2, which was stated on the menu. This platter itself cost AUD84.00! We also paid an extra AUD3.90 for 2 dipping sauces.
 
The total damage was AUD200 with 3 premium beers and 2 soda drinks. This meal was a treat from 4 of us (Vi-vien, Diana, Baby and Yours Truly) for Uncle Mike and Shelly.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  We concluded our Fremantle day trip with a visit to the Fremantle Market and I picked up some handmade accessories (2 rings and 1 pearl bracelet) at 3 items for AUD10.
 
 
I love the bunny ring best as I like the 2 diamonte eyes, and Mommy said that the pearl bracelet looks elegant.  

 

 


 

Although it was a short holiday (3D2N). I still had wonderful time there. Thanks for reading and do stay tuned for my next post on my Perth trip!

They are also infused with a specific scent - such as Pink Grapefruit, White Musk or Cherry Blossom, or the most popular floral scent, Baby Powder.

[product review] Celladix Sebum Rebalancing RX Ampoule + COCOnCO Skincare Line

Thanks for introducing COCOnCO from Korea which has helped me to achieve pleasant results from my beauty regime.   COCOnCO First Essence Toner  is a fermented facial essence, and it soothes wrinkles, tones, moisturizes and nourishes the skin, enhances blood circulation and metabolic processes at the cellular level, evens out complexion, brightens the skin, reduces the secretion of sebaceous glands and fights rashes. If you have pale, tired skin with sagging and fine lines, these can be miraculously transformed with regular use of the essence! It is suggested to be used as the first step in daily skin care. Apply it to cleansed skin first before applying the lotion, emulsion/serum and cream.  It is recommended for the product to be used twice a day - Once in the morning, and once in the evening.

The common scalp problems can cause a lot of irritation, but also hair loss. I was in complete shock at the state of my nightmarish infected scalp! One must make a huge effort to take good care of your scalp. Hence here I am at Jonsson Protein for their signature VE Protein Hair Treatment. Although there are many hair products to cleanse my scalp, it is better to head to a professional.

She also explained that my scalp was pretty oily, and my scal
