We drove to Penguine Island again today. We arrived at the right time, 15  mins before the boat departed.













We walked along the jetty towards the boat














We took the Penguine Island Dolphin Watch Adventure Cruise package. It was very fun and an exciting fast ride on the boat, the wind was so strong and cold. We were brought to the ocean to scout for wild dolphins!!
Bb-G's first time in a speed boat. She was standing at the rail watching wild dolphins.































We stopped by an island to see flamingos and sealions. Too bad, all the sealions were asleep when we arrived...

























About an hour in the boat (and sea), we finlly arrived Penguine Island































There were a lot of seagulls in the island, and full of their shits too! A Beautiful seagull...

























Bb-G attempted to catch a seagull...haiyoh! These seagulls are wild, and fierce too. When we were having some snacks, the seagulls would get close to us and tried to snatch away the food.

 













We went to see penguines. Actually there wasn't much to see in the penguine enclosure. We spent a few minutes and went out from the place to the beach















The island was set up with wooden platform, we stroll along the way to the beach. A very sunny day though..



























Papa-M "ban yao eng" again













I also wanted to "ban yao eng" like him....Really like the sea so much, crystal clear and blue














Papa-M asked me to take a photo of him with the cave, I could not remember the name given to the cave, but it was the seagulls' hybernating cave...














We stayed at the island about 2 hours, and decided to take the 2nd last boat back to the mainland.

Our boat arrived....














Couldn't stand the sun actually, I should had bring along a hat/cap/mini umbrella. I made sure Bb-G was well equipped, but I forgot to pay attention to myself....Guess that's a mother's love...ceh wah...But luckily it was windy and comfortably cold



















On way driving home, we stopped by to eat Red Rooster. My second time eating this fast food. For me, I enjoyed eating the chicken, and I like the taste too. Instead of french fries (cause we had been taking quite a lot, feel so jelak with fried potatos), we took the salad package.





































When we reached home, Papa-M's brother , Uncle TH and wife already arrived. yah, finally the family gathering was complete. Mom-in-law and sis-in-law prepared dinner for us.

Butternut pumpkin with dried shrimps















Mom-in-law was so nice to both her sons...Sambal petail with prawns, this was Papa-M's favourite














Pork in dark soy sauce (tau yew bak), Uncle TH's favourite















Acar, I helped to make this.















Salmon fish head soup, 2 recipes, one with miso paste+kelp , the other one with lemongrass+lemon juice. I prefer the latter because it tasted like clear tomyam soup..















A family photo. I set my camera to smart shutter function, all of us had to show our teeth for the camera to capture our photo. Say CHEEEESE 











The kids were at their mini dining table














After the dinner, it was the "present" time. Uncle TH+wife gave the kids some presents, all the way from Malaysia...so sweet...
All of them lepak in Uncle TH's room
















Their presents. (After merely a week in Perth, Bb-G's cheeks were so rosey.....she told us she has tomato face, hahaha)
















At night, we chit chat, took some more snacks, ate cheese, I drank wine again, this round bro-in-law (sis-in-law's hub) took out a bottle of wine cost AU90, and I loved it so much, because it was sweet...next, we slept....

On this day, we went to Penguine Island. While we were driving along the road towards the island, we were amazed to see the beautiful blue sea














This was the place where we need to get our tickets













It was an unexpected trip, the boat was sent for service, and we could not go to the Penguine Island. But we managed to book our places on the next day.

Since we were having plenty of time, we just lepak around the area, enjoying the scenery
Bb-G freely lying on the grass



















I joined her, so relaxing....




















We walked to the beach, although it was sunny, the wind was so strong and cold, my hair was so messy




















Bb-G's version of Gangnam style, kekekekeke




















I like this scene



















What a beauty....ahem....I am referring to the beach and sea



























Then, we drove to a nearby park, trust me, no lion could be found here...^_^














The best part for Bb-G at Lions Park - the playground, she had the whole place for herself, and played until we have to "drag" her back to the car...


































Took a family photo here before we left for lunch














Our lunch at The Bent Chip














The whole eating place looks just like this
































We ordered a set of fried snapper + squid rings , and a portion of grill fish for Bb-G. The grill fish was super yummy, juicy and flavourful




















After a satisfying lunch, we drove to meet up with sis-in-law, we went to see her newly bought house, but still under construction.
Bb-G was so happy to see her cousins again after a long day without them...














A huge bungalow...wow....I was drooling when I entered the house...

Like the backyard so much.... so huge, enough to build a house!













Open concept kitchen
























The bathroom, nicely done




















The garage
































*** Hey Papa-M, shall we migrate too??? hee heeee heeeeeeeee

After that, we went off to do some grocery shopping at Spudshed Fresh Food Market, back home to cook dinner, rest for the day.
