If you find yourself in Perth during summer, look out for this Sunset Beach Market at Bathers Beach happening every Saturday from 5 - 9pm in the evening. It's a fantastic way of settling your dinner - you will be indulging in international food selections right at the beach with the sea view all for your taking. I really like how I am spoilt for choice, but then I wished for a second stomach and endless cash to stuff myself silly with everything. It's a place I'll go back to when I visit Perth again. Entry is made available to the public for free. It's also within the Fremantle area to end off a lovely day trip!Itinerary for Day One in Perth
I was mentally prepared to let go of all Asian food for the next six months... but hey look at what's this? I chanced upon a stall named Malaysian Food selling prata and satay. Whoa, are my eyes working?
Marie Antoinette Cafe Glacier setting up a store for people who love their desserts.
The whole beach area was scattered with a vibrant palette of different colours! Such a pretty sight to behold. Locals and tourists swarmed the whole place, but it wasn't uncomfortably crowded.
Sun, sea, beach, coconuts. There, I completed the equation. Wouldn't recommend the coconuts though, it was AUD5 per coconut but the consistency of the quality wasn't there. Mine was especially hard to scour for coconut meat.
These Japanese pastries were my dinner, they were fairly good. I would probably not ask you to try this because it wasn't particularly wonderful, you'd score a better bet with the seafood paella.
Plenty of photo opportunities with the Indian Ocean! The sunlight was so flattering during the late-afternoon... and my camera screen caked with sand.
Painted on the ground.
Love this backview shot! The story behind this photo is really less glamorous than it looks; I was assessing the sand if it's safe for jump shots.
But the best way to test it out is to jump on it for real, and okay, it proved to be less than safe for those with only rusty skills. When I landed (right after this shot)... I landed weak-kneed and crashed into the sand. But how lovingly the sand caught me, so soft and inviting to roll in. So all was well.
Did a less challenging jump to prevent potential sprained ankles...
More shots of me doing stupid touristy jumps with very, very rusty skills and an inflexible body. This reminds me to stretch and regain my original flexibility but then procrastination takes over. Till the next time, I'll be blogging about DAY TWO IN PERTH! :)
