Swan Valley and Fremantle

Salam,

Still fresh in Hari Raya mood, we decided to take the kids for a tour or rather detour to Swan Valley and Fremantle. Swan Valley is known as the wine grower's region of WA. Of course our intention not to taste the wine, but to appreciate it beautiful scenary and wonderful climate. Others attractions are abundant such as chocolate factory, strawberry farms, animal farms and of course you can visit the vineyards.

Off we went to Fremantle the next day. Fremantle is an ancient city by Aussie standard. Less than 200 years old I think. Even Aloq Setaq is pretty much older. This is a major port city of WA, although it is dwarfed by Port Klang standard. However, the authority has done a good job of maintaining the historical aspects of the town. The town is clean, well planned and wonderful. The scenary is fantastic.

We got the taste of it famous Kailis Fish and Chips restaurant near the fishing port. Don't worry its halal. No porks are served. The fish and chips are cooked with vegetable oil. Nice and tasty. The kids really enjoyed them very much. There are other surrounding attractions such as maritime museum, ship wreck museum, fremantle markets and of course it beautiful blue beach (watch out for the dogs pooh..there are aplenty).

Waslam
