Perth

When we woke up in the morning we had breakfast (I had bacon, eggs, bread and sausage). After that we drove to Perth it took just under 4 hours to get there in the car. We stopped off at another cave called Ngilgi it was my favourite cave you could go in a crawling tunnel under rocks and bridges. We also stopped at a lighthouse and just went back in the car and then drove to Perth.

When we arrived I just played on my iPad until we went to a pizza place to meet my dads friend Carmel when we got back we went to bed. The next day we went to a museum  that was very fascinating. It did not have very many dinosaurs. Then we went to A little garden then we walked along the water and then we went back and then I played on my iPad then watched a movie then we went to bed. P.S We also had room service.

Margaret River

The drive to Margaret River was 3 hours and 30 minutes. Along the way we saw some animals that included cows, sheep, pigs, camels, kangaroos and deers. Along the way we stopped in Bunbury for lunch. The place that we ate in had swings that you could sit in while you ate, I had a Burger. We also stopped at the longest Jetty in the southern hemisphere it was 1.8 km long and you had to pay to go on it. My dad and I went on a boat ramp and got splashed by some water.

When we arrived in Margaret River we just went to the shops and bought some things. Then we went back to Basildene Manor and read I read the 39 Storey Treehouse. Then we went downstairs and played some scrabble and I lost the game of scrabble then we went back up and had dinner and then went to bed. When I was in bed I read the 39 Storey Treehouse and I finished reading it. Then I went to sleep.

The next day we woke up had breakfast (I had pancakes) and then we drove to the Cape Leeuwin light house were two oceans meet. It was very interesting, we got an audio guide. Then we went to the Jewel Cave and saw some amazing things like snowy looking rocks. The cave was filled with stalactites and stalagmites. Stalactites hang tight to the ceiling and stalagmites "might" reach the ceiling. Then we went to the Lake Cave which you can guess had a lake in it and it had a rock that was being held above the water. Then we went to the Mammoth cave and this cave was self guided and we saw some ancient animal bones. They had bones from giant kangaroos and Giant Wombat like creates. They also found Tasmanian Devil Tasmanian Tiger (Thylacine) bones in these cave. After a long day we head back to Basildene Manor. Then we went to a Japanese restaurant called Mikis and they cooked right in front of us. When we got back we went to bed.

A New Trip - Fremantle

We got up early on Monday morning at 5:41. When I woke up I screamed "Oh my gosh we are going to Perth!" We all had showers got changed and we were at the airport an hour and half later.

At the airport we all had breakfast and I had toast. I played word mania and Minecraft until our flight to Perth was called. The flight went for 4 hours and 20 minutes. I was listening to my favourite band called Gorillaz for the whole time! Luckily I was not sick on this flight.

When we arrived in Perth we picked up our car which is a big, red Toyota Camry. We drove all the way to Fremantle listening to the GPS and we listened to a band called Blur. When we arrived at the apartment I quickly chose the room with the TV in it. After that we drove into town and saw the round house which was used as a prison and is the oldest building in Fremantle. After that we went to Cicerellos. This restaurant is 112 years old and it is famous for its seafood and I ordered pizza.

Near the restaurant and the big Ferris wheel there was a statue of Bon Scott who was the original singer of ACDC. Then we drove back to the apartment and relaxed and I read the 26 storey treehouse (now I am up to the 39 storey treehouse).

The next day we went out exploring we first went to Fremantle prison for a tour called doing time and we learned some interesting facts about this prison. When that had finished we had lunch I had sticky lamb ribs. Then we went to a shipwreck museum that was not really to my interest but I did not complain about it. After that we went to the Maritime museum and we searched the boats our ancestors came on. We saw a humungous ship that was around 235 metres long and 50 metres high I chased it along the foot path every body was taking photos of it. Then we caught the bus to were we parked the car and then we went back to the apartment and I read the 39 storey treehouse.

There is a 2 hour time difference from Perth to Melbourne.
