Began with a city tour of Perth. Big city – very spread out. Lots of 50s/60s architecture, but also 80s, 90s, and 2000 styles interspersed. Noted one curved building that focussed the sun (remember the old magnifying glass trick?) onto cars parked nearby and they were bursting into flames for no apparent reason. Stopped for a walk in Kings Park- the world’s largest inner-city green space. On to Freemantle, stopping at beach where A had a paddle! Down to quayside to pick up ferry back down the Swan river to Perth. Back to hotel for a cooldown before meeting for a group meal, suggested by Marcus, at the Grosvener hotel restaurant – very pleasant! Walk back to hotel and scribbling this blog! Think jetlag officially over!

Good start. Interesting your. Brave Allison to take a paddle

The water was quite warm! It was the Indian ocean after all and you have to take the opportunity to paddle and throw a stone in the water when it comes along!
