| I AM THE QUEEN!!! |
 |
| Going for the Doing Time Prison Tour |
 |
| The tour guide Ben showing how new prisoners are searched when they first arrived in Fremantle. |
 |
| The prison is built by the first convicts to Fremantle using limestone. |
 |
| See the bucket on the floor? It's actually a poop bucket. Fremantle was still using poop buckets up till its closure on 1991! (How would you feel if you need to use that poop bucket?) |
 |
| The area for cleaning the poop buckets. |
 |
| Climbing up the stairs to the second level. |
 |
| VI has been changed as the prison staff is also 'killing'. |
 |
| A piano in the chapel in the prison. |
 |
| This is how a cell looked like in 1860 - 1870. |
 |
| The cells are subsequently enlarged by breaking down the wall between two cells. |
 |
| The introduction of 'modern' toiet in the 1960 - 1980 period. However, the poop bucket was used again when the prison staff realised that the prisoners were using the toilet bowl to concoct chemicals for consumption. |
 |
| Paintings painted in the cells by prisoners. |
 |
| Paintings again. |
 |
| This is a solitary cell |
 |
| Daddy in front of solitary cell 1 which is used by the prisoners on the morning before they were hanged. |
 |
| The tour guide demonstrating how the flogging pole is used. |
 |
| Ouch! Ouch! |
 |
| The gallows |
 |
| Tea break at the Convict Cafe in the Fremantle Prison. |
 |
| Scones and chocolate milkshake. Yummy! |
 |
| The original noose which is in the prison museum. They also have a table to help them calculate the length of the noose to use based on the prisoner's stature. |
 |
| Bye bye Fremantle Prison YHA! |
 |
| On the train back to Perth City from Fremantle. |
 |
| Yikes! The car is squashed by some trees (don't worry, it's a fake car)! |
 |
| Late lunch at the Afghan restaurant near Baileys Service Apartment. |
 |
| The Doing Time tour pictures. |
