Perth

We headed to Perth a day earlier than expected, to sort out a few things.  Then unbeknowns to us, so did Cam, Ton, Jordan and Riley.  We all arrived at the caravan park the same arvo.  So nice to catch up with our mates again.  We will spend a few days with these guys before going to Bali

We also went to our family friends from Tassies house.  Mitch and Sandra were so nice to have us for dinner.  We had a great night catching up with Bob, Karen, Bell, Ella, Josh and everyone else.  Made us miss all our families at home.  The kids had a ball playing with Willow, Lilly and James.


Ton and Cam were getting sorted to settle down and start work.  The kids ran around playing as usual.  They even made a shop, selling their merchandise to the parents.   We went to Mandurah and had a picnic lunch of fish and chips.  Funniest day when Mark got attacked by a pelican after his piece of fish.  Had tears almost rolling down our faces.  We stayed at Goldens Ponds about half an hour south of Perth for a few nights then moved into the city for the last bit.










It was a beautiful sunny day, and we went exploring around Fremantle.  A great area, we really enjoyed wandering around the market and the forshore. The statues were pretty cool.  Mark particularly like Little Creatures Brewery!!!

Lunch at the Market


Little Creatures...... Marks in heaven, I think he wants to live here.  He certainly wanted the beer keg lights.  He went on a beer tour and the kids and I played around and waited.  Gotta love a man with a passion!






Our lovely darling friend Ton looked after the kids for the arvo so Mark and I got to go out by ourselves.  We ended up having a blast exploring the city and acting like children.........








We took the kids into Kings park, what a place, we loved it.  Now we know why everyone raved about it.  Such a huge green beautiful area right in the CBD.  The views over the city are just amazing, your up so high... loved it.  We spent a lovely day there playing and exploring.
















We really enjoyed Perth, for a city its a really nice one.  We didn't have a lot of time to explore, plus we had just spent two months exploring and are now off to Bali!!  Very very excited.  First time for the kids to leave the country.  We said farewell to Ton,Cam and kids and hope to see them again soon.
