PerthViewed from Kings Park.
Back in Perth for 3 nights, joining Tina, Heath and Hudson for the first two, before staying in the city for the third; after which we'll be leaving the Westcoast for Ayers Rock.
Arriving late into Perth, we snuck back into our 6 star accommodation (that we'd left almost 2 weeks previously) while our hosts were sleeping. Felt good to sleep in a cool room with a proper bed, instead of our mobile microwave.
The following evening we were treated to my first 'Aussie barbie'. Heath cooking the prawns, steak and chicken kebabs to perfection, whilst Tina produced enough delicious food to silence AND satisfy an army of food critics. We met Heath's brother Brett and his girlfriend Sofia. "Brett, you should have brought your guitar. Would have been good to hear you play"........was nice to meet you both, good luck with the savings and house!
We drove into Fremantle the next day and had some lunch and a wander round. Mum and Julie; there's a street here you'd like. It's nicknamed 'The Cappuchino Strip' as they must sell it by the gallon due to the amount of cafes here. Our lunch was in a quirky bar/cafe called 'Little Creatures' (which
is the name of a beer over here), the bar and cafe of which are in the same industrial unit as all the brewing vats. The atmosphere was really good, as was the food and drink.
In the morning we dropped off Tina's 4x4 that they'd kindly lent us, and said our goodbyes.............ONCE AGAIN, A BIG THANKS TO YOU BOTH!!!
Managed to make our flight with only minutes to spare, not that we kept many people waiting, the plane was practically empty. Think we could've sat next to the pilot if we'd asked..........."Right Bruce,....take us to Ayers Rock!!"
