Hehe! 2weeks without news but we have a good reason: We were Perth !
Indeed as a surprise to Christopher for his 30th birthday (remember Tof and Mel who moved to Perth last March?):
Charlotte Denis, Lea (a friend with them), and Cyril I have prepared in recent weeks a long weekend in Western Australia.
Result 17 to Friday morning we flew to Perth. After 5:30 frankly uncomfortable airplane (one gets used a bit too comfortable in our Singapore Airlines flights Sydney / Paris ...), we joined Mel Wagamama restaurant in Subiaco, after a short passage by Kings Park .
Tof arrived 15 minutes later expecting to eat with coworkers and Melanie got a surprise ... we were there!
excited about our plan, we have passed all five in the afternoon to visit Perth charming little town and quieter than Sydney, the atmosphere is nice and it's good to live! So we walked the main areas of Perth and found:
downtown and city hall, the London Court, St Mary's Cathedral and its flamboyant, Government House and the courthouse, the Swan Bell Tower and the wharf.
the evening we joined Tof and Mel after work for drinks at the Belgian Beer Cafe Perth! Nice atmosphere, good beer and pleasant with small backyard.
Then after a short stint with Mel and Tof in their house (huge and pleasant j'adoore!) We went to eat at The Little Creatures Fremantle. Of course, not being a fan of beer I had never heard of, unlike boys! The place is known as The Little Creatures brews its own beer! We ended with a short tour in Fremantle night! We had heard a lot of Fremantle and its atmosphere, bars, cafes, restaurants ... Now we understand why: it's really a place to visit, day night.
Saturday morning we took the road for every 7 Green Head!
Mel had booked a small house just for us to spend the weekend with friends. Green Head is about 3:30 north of Perth and all that happy because of our troop we have the double time than expected! All
installed aboard the 4x4 Tof and Mel we began with a stop for an hour at Yanchep National Park. This park is a nature reserve where you can see koalas! Lea a French friend of Charlotte and Denis, on vacation in Australia, who accompanied us on this crazy journey Sydney / Perth to 4days wanted to see koalas and we both!
We were not disappointed because for the first time we saw a koala "move". You know we usually complain that the koalas are just sleeping, and although this time we could see a dining and climb trees before settling to sleep ... Consider:
In addition koalas we saw a kangaroo family nearby while above our heads flew over the Carnaby's black cockatoos, a type of black cockatoo with White-tailed unfortunately endangered in Australia. Also for our delight we saw the ring neck parrots, we do not yet know. Certainly we will never tire of these magnificent birds of all colors.
We then hit the road for Green Head, and after a lunch stop in a very gourmet restaurant road (burger and sandwich limit edible ...) we finally arrived around 16:30 ... the uh The house was at the top: Spacious, bright, with balcony, small courtyard and barbecue, pool and 300m from the Indian Ocean.
The timing was finally perfect to have time to cook up a cocktail on the beach at sunset.
first sunset in Australia that it looks like this:
the evening we found our good habits with a barbecue with friends and a few pool parties and Jenga bonus!
