Perth: Farm day out

First day back to work after 10 days of holiday. I thought it would be real hard to get my lazy butt of my bed, but I woke up unbelievably full of energy. Hmm.....this is strange. It was good to be back though I am still wallowing in my time in Perth.

Anyway, there is more to share about my trip.

It was another sunny Saturday (as always!). My bro decided to take us to the orchards and do some fruit picking. The highlight for me was to finally see my favourite local fruit - persimmon trees! I still remember when I was young, I could only lay my hands on dehydrated persimmon, fresh ones were never in sight. The very first bite of the fresh persimmon when I first arrived in New Zealand took my breath (and heart) away.
