Perth Trip day 2

We headed towards Fremantle on day 2.

Our plan was to have fish and chips for lunch at Fremantle. Along the way, we stopped by the Monument Hill for some photo taking. Monument Hill has been a popular lookout over Fremantle since the early days of British Colonisation. This place was made a park and continued as a lookout and beauty spot popular among the locals and visitors alike. To commemorate the losses of the 1914-1918 war, the City of Fremantle erected the Fallen Sailors & Soldiers Memorial in1928. To date, Monument Hill continues to be used for memorial services, as a lookout and for recreation.





We had our fish and chips at Kailis'. It was not bad. After lunch, we took a walk at the Fremantle markets, and roamed around the vicinity after that. After Fremantle, we headed down towards Perth city (around Hill Street) for a bit of shopping. As their shopping places close at 9pm on friday nights. Usually their shops all close by 5-6pm!






We didn't buy much stuff; there ain't much to buy! Our loot of the day were just some candies and nougats, a duck "music open box" to appease Kae when she was in a cranky mood at Fremantle, and 2 pairs of Havaianas; 1 for Kae and 1 for mummy!
