After tasting the working adults life, it was time for a short break. I packed my bags and flew off to Perth to stay with my ex-secondary school teacher Gemma. It was a budget holiday for me, so I flew by Air India, which at that time was the cheapest. Can’t complain as I was in good spirits…literally ha ha cos they kept refilling my whiskey dry drink. Of course I sobered up by the time we touched down, couldn’t have my ex-teacher see me in that light could I? Anyhow it was so good to see her again, she picked me up at the airport and we drove off to her place in Willeton.
I didn’t do that much of the touristy thing like see the Pinnacles etc. I did however go to Fremantle to sight see and shop. Then took the city train and made my way to Subiaco, just loved this place! Subiaco has it all - premier fashion outlets, a vast array of restaurants and cafes and many attractions including galleries, museums and theatres and two markets. I had a wonderful cheesecake and coffee alfresco.
On another day I explored the city area and chanced upon a sex-shop. With my backpack on my bag I was contemplating should I or should I not? It was broad daylight, if memory serves me right and it was about 3:00pm and a hot afternoon. Had never been into one prior and was curios as hell. Looked around, not sure why as I was pretty sure no one knew me hee hee…and walked in. Wow talk about being a ‘mountain tortoise’! (chinese term for someone who crawled out from under a rock) This place had it all, well at least that is what I thought…..so many interesting gadgets, lingerie, toys, magazines, books, videos, lubes, sweets & treats etc. They even had a few arcade like machines which you could watch a short porno flick at $1.50au I think. But what caught my eye deep inside, was this line of booths which could be closed individually with a black curtain. Inside the booth there was a coin slot and a small black window, oh yeah a roll of toilet paper by the side and a waste paper bin. The price for this one was $6.00au, Sheesh! I thought to myself, must be one of those wide-screens 3D porno films! Again…decisions…decisions….well I had two sayings at that time, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do!” and “You only live once.” So I closed the curtain behind me and slotted the coins in. Wah! Liaoz! Oi! my heart raced, thundered more like it…what did I see? Well it was a totally nude Australian beauty, starting to gyrate for me. How do I know that it was a live show? Cos when that small little window dropped she looked startled, probably did not expect anyone at that time of the day. Her body was flawless I tell you! no freckles, curves in all the right places, I just couldn’t believe my eyes. The whole fantasy lasted approx 30secs, and that was about the same time I remembered to close my mouth. Was I dreaming? I just had to confirm, so I rushed off to get another 6 coins *blush* and YES! I was not dreaming…….Ha Ha!
Apart from that memorable experience, I think dinner and drinking at an Australian pub & grill was so much fun too! Also feeding the black swans at one of the lakes was nice. And how could I forget, Abalone fishing!…..Yes you need a licence in Australia and they have to be a certain size else you need to let them go. Also there is maximum weight you are entitled to fish. I got to see them in their natural ugly, dirty state and clean them….gees! it’s a real chore I tell ya!
Did I mention, I bought a blue blazer and wore that on my fight back home much to everyone’s surprise? *winks* At the Perth Airport I remember Michael Jackson had just landed and we could see him through the fence with all his fans screaming. Gemma happened to be one of them….me? well I just yelled out to him that I was making a move first…*chuckles*
