Perth

---

Susan had to fly to Sydney for a couple of days. On Monday I grappled with the bus system and went downtown, or as they say here, to the CBD. I walked around and admired sculptures, saw the old Court House and various other historic buildings and went to the Western Australian Museum- Perth. There was a very powerful display about the Australian military operations in East Timor during WWII. I rode the blue CAT bus, attended evening prayer at St. George's, and then ate delicious mussels wrapped in bacon at 44 King Street. A trip home on the city bus completed my sightseeing for the day.



On Wednesday Susan and I had a day out and a out together. First we went to the theatre- a wonderful matinee performance of Mary Poppins, followed by drinks in the lounge of the revolving C Restaurant, on the 33rd floor of St. Martin's Place. The pictures I took from there are rather grainy, but are each of a particular place I visited. We interacted with more sculpture on the way back to the car park, then home to Susan's lovely house in Salter Point.
