Well, I actually wanted to SWIM with them, but that tour was full and the next best thing was to see them from a boat :( That's me on the boat, trying very hard to smile in the freezing cold! The wind was blowing really hard, and it's #$^%^%$ cold! My thin jacket is not doing it's job properly!
Will I see the dolphins before I freeze to death?...
Dolphins...bobbing up and down...apparently sleeping...
Dolphins! It's so difficult to take pictures of them, because they are zooming around and seemed to be teasing us. The way to spot a dolphin is to spot the birds first. The dolphins will chase the small fishes into a "corner", and the birds will swoop down and feed on these fishes! How convenient.
And dolphins sleep at the surface of the water. They will bop up and down when they sleep. So cute! I learnt a lot about the dolphins that day, thanks to the skipper. He looks like Jamie Oliver, by the way :)
This is the Dolphin Swim boat! I will do this the next time!
Envy the peeps on the Dolphin Swim! They looked like they were really enjoying themselves. In order to make the dolphins "chase" us, the skipper revved up the boat and started to speed! The white foams the speeding boat made were supposed to attract the dolphins to chase after us, and even maybe jump out of the water! We succeeded once....haha...oh well, it was worth the try.
The tour lasted the whole morning, and by mid afternoon, we were back in Perth City. Went to 88 Royal for lunch - this is where TFP usually have her lunches too! The food was not bad, and priced quite cheaply, compared to the other meals we had! I had the chicken schnitzel burger, and J had the rice with vegetables or something.
Didn't feel like going anywhere in the afternoon because it was so hot! So we went to the gym for a workout, and dipped into the pool! Nice!
We lounged around the pool area, until it was dinner time and drove to the CBD area for a bit of shopping. Got a Portmans knitted top, which I absolutely love! Didn't get anything from Witchery, cos they are too expensive.
Then we went to Northbridge for dinner again! I wanted to have some Vietnamese food, but we walked and walked and walked, and could not find the famous restaurant. So ended up in the 1st Vietnamese restaurant that we came across - and the food was yucky :( Should have gone back to Hong Kong BBQ!
Anyway, we were really exhausted after the dinner and headed back to the apartment. Slept early, because it's S' wedding the next day!
This is the whole reason why we came to Perth!
