Perth, Australia - Emu Down Wind Farm and Picnic at Wildflowers

After Caversham Wildlife park, we took a long bus ride down heading towards the pinnacles. Along the way, the driver stopped us at Emu Down Wind Farm. No doubt it was windy and cold, but it wasn't as windy and cold as the wind farm down south at Albany town. At Albany, the wind farm was at the tip of the southern portion of Australia separating the Pacific and the Indian Ocean so it was nearer to the Ocean whereas this one is built on lowlands, no doubt also near coastal area.

Anyway after that, we had the picnic at Wildflowers. The interesting thing is the picnic, not the place. The place is just like a school canteen with a souvenier shop by the food.... It was all cold, cold as in just defrosted type of cold. Everything was cold. Salad, cheese, chicken, ham, eggs, whatever. The only thing that wasn't cold was probably the bread, the fruits and well, instant soup packets. =P

It wasn't appetizing at all but after tasting some of them, it wasn't so bad after all. An interesting experience! Here are the pictures for this section of the trip.

These are wild plants around the area. It looks nicer than our grass or lalang's in Malaysia. =P





This is our bus, you can see its pretty huge!
