FREMANTLE

My first weekend in Western Australia, I visited Fremantle. Fremantle is the chief port of Western Australia.

It really a wonderful town. Its a must visit place for tourist who visit Perth. My impression of Fremantle is it seems to be a tourist town. It really those kinda place where you can find all the museums, souveniors, street cafes and so on.

The picture on the left is the Cappuccino Strip. Its really a nice place to hang out and relax. You get to see people shopping, just day dream all day and have a delicious hot pie with a nice cup of coffee....


This road leads to the Fremantle market (Picture on the right). Its similar to Central Market in Kuala Lumpur.

For Asians who wanna feel at home should go here. The vege sellers at the end of this market are majority Asians...Haha

There was even one Corn(Jaggung) store selling "Satay Pedas".. I stoopd in front of it for like 10 minutes wonder which food displayed is actually a satay...haha

Its really a cool place to look at things and buy little little things.. There was even this CD shops that sell really cheap CDs.. They have really nice Jazz CDs.. Yeap I'm into Jazz lately.. Don't know why, maybe I'm feeling the blues!! haha
Wanted to buy a few but my friend was telling me somewhere in Perth City there is this place that sells original Jazz CDs for only AUS$ 4 per CD

Earlier that day we went for lunch at this nice Fish & Chips place... It called as Ciserallo's and its supose to be the best fish and chips is Western Australia. It was really nice and if you are a seafood lover, there are many more variety there. Too bad i'm a fussy seafood eater. There is this other place called "Kylie's" and it supose to be really good too. Will be trying that place on our next visit there.

We later visited a brewery near by the fish & chips shop. Its so cool to see the setup on how they produce the beers and the various type of beers they have. They have a bar in the brewery and its so cool cause it feels like those olden days pub.. The beers were really cheap too. A good place to hang out and drink.

We visited the shipwreck museum in Fremantle (picture on the right).. It really cool if you like historical stuff, pirate ships, and so on.. I really enjoyed my visit there. It was there we met with this lady who told us that Fremantle has a chocolate factory!!! Huray!! But too bad for us it was getting late and we had typing duty. So had to skip that.

Will definately be going back there to visit the chocolate factory and hang out at the Cappuccino StripThat's pretty much about Fremantle for the moment. Will write more tommorrow on my trip to Joseph National Park.
