Fremantle prison


us behind the gates


Freo prison was super duper spooky! Went last friday with the senior common room girls, darling sof organized it. it was not too bad went in about 3 cars not too many of us and it was at night... you know me as usual the chicken heart! and how come i went you might ask cause i didn't know it was called FREMANTLE GHOST TOUR! i only found it out when the tour started! i was like well done pheli look what you've got yourself into.... and mind you ppl there are real ghost inside there... many ppl have died and the lady even said that it's known to be the most haunted site in western australia! but of course there was no turning back and the money was paid and so off we went...

I took australian economic history in the 1st semester so yeah it was kinda like things from the text brought to live! well besides the ghoul part i was rather pleased that i went... seriously history brought to life. things that i've learnt about the place our tour guide mentioned it and it sorta refreshed my memory so yeah not too bad. There were 3 places where they scared us oh boy you should have seen my face... i clung on to sof like what she likes to call a "little koala" lol and yeah we went to the spots where ppl were sent to die and even the hanging room.

The lady told us that if you took pictures in the prison you might be able to catch white spots here and there which are the ghouls and of course me being the scary cat kept my digi cam right away! NO WAY IN THE WORLD AM I GONNA WANNA SEE THAT! julia was super brave though she kept snapping away... but to me i kinda thought it wasn't that appropriate as it's like kinda treating them as "things" after all they were human once you know so i kinda felt that more respect for them was needed... oh well different ppl have different opinion about things so yeah. it's alright. oh since we're on the ghoul topic.. the lady mentioned that at some places digi cams can't work for some reason but once you leave the area it would work again... strange but oh well lol...

after the tour we went for coffee at freo and i had a nice big cookie with my all time fave caramel macchiato.. lovely lovely
