Memory On Trip to Perth, Australia 伯斯流浪记 2009

This is the second trip and the 1st oversea trip for 4 of us. I remembered the 1st trip was about 8 years ago. We went to Cameron Highland, and had so much fun there.

We had booked the Air Asia ticket a year earlier, for RM802 (included the airport tax and fuel charge). Thought we’d got the best price. Who knows, the fuel charge was waved later. :( Australia Visa applied thru net for AUS$20.

Here the flow of the trip:-
