First of all, allow me to 'clarify' that the person in the video in the previous post wasn't me, just in case you are wondering. It was some sci-fi CGI-created person. IT WASN'T ME OK! Grrr....(I'm doomed)

Burswood Casino - the source of entertainment (and 'side income') in Perth.

This is the one and only casino in the whole of Western Australia. We actually went there twice.
The place is actually pretty remote, thus we have to take the train from our place to Perth City and from the city to Burswood which took us about 1 hour.



It is almost like going to Genting from KL which takes about 1 hour as well. Talks about 'great minds think alike' huh - this is more like a case of 'great places located alike'. =)


Well, if you are wondering the reason I was wearing the hideous flat cap, it was because my hair was 'terrorized' by a Spanish hairdresser uncle a few days earlier. But that is another story altogether. Suffice to say that I won't be risking my hair under a pair of 'unknown hands' again. *sigh*


This is the interior of Intercontinental Hotel which is located adjacent to the casino. An impressive piece of interior architecture.



That's me posing in front of the casino's entrance. Look at the baldy security officer behind me. That guy must be wondering whether I came from Ulu-Land, thinking "this guy looks like he never seen a casino before".

One thing about casino is that whenever there is one, there are bound to be at least a Chinese person there. When we entered the casino, we can't help but noticed that there were some Chinese uncles and aunties placing their wager.

What even more surprising was the fact that we spotted a Malay couple there as well! And I thought gambling was 'haram' for Muslims? Or it only apply for Muslims within Malaysia vicinities huh? Since alcoholic drinks were also served in the casino, we were pretty sure they were committing in 'double sins' as well. But, what the heck, I am not a JAIS officer - so don't bother.



Overall, we did make some 'side-income' from our 2nd visit there. We went in at 3.45pm and came out at 4.45pm. Yup, just 1 hour! Because we were winning and thought it would be better to leave before we got 'charmed' by the 'ang mo toyols'. LOL.

Burswood, we will certainly be back again soon! Wait for us, baby!
