Saturday March 7th, Anand and I went to Scarborough beach because we wanted to try this sushi place (Peko Peko: http://www.pekopeko.com.au/) near by..so we go there. Long story short, the place was NOT sushi..it was ¿cooked sushi?, if you can even call it that. The fish was cooked! To be fair, it wasn't bad, just not what we expected.
Mission: find out if they have real sushi here..isn't Asia close by?
Tanning Skills
In Perth, the sun is hot... but my tanning skills are even hotter.
I call it the four-finger tan line.
OH and let's not forget the shark sighting!
Apparently they saw a shark near scarbs, they had the helicopter hovering over the water and about 4 boats driving around along with a non-stop siren that came on and had everyone scrambling to get out of the water..it looked like the beach patrols were trying to scare it off since they weren't moving too much at first. We didn't see any fins above the water.
Everyone on the beach and the helicopter in the back.
Once the siren went off about 25 minutes later, everyone jumped back in..I was cooking by then since it was 32 degrees and so I joined but just made sure a few people were out further than me; us Canadian's aren't as dumb as we look. I never thought I'd be on the beach when there was a shark sighting, apparently if it's really dangerous they close the beach entirely.
Good news is I'm still alive, but I think even if the shark came after me I could have wrestled it down and then we would have had some raw meat for our real sushi.
Nightlife
Anand and I went to Onyx (http://www.onyxbar.com.au/) in Subiaco on Friday, pretty nice club...I reckon.
