Perth!




Hi, Dave here! I thought I'd give Fi a rest. Perth is apparently the most isolated city in the world. In the UK I'd equate it to Southampton. It's very nice and at the start, was very hot and sunny. As with all cities there are key views, so here is the Perth cityscape in the day...



and at night!

There is a wonderful building called the Swan Bells which houses an old set of bells from St Martin in the Fields which the Queen gave to Perth to celebrate the bicentinery of the founding of Australia. When we were there, bell ringers were actively using the bells and there was a gallery where you cold see the bells ringing. Finally at the top there were brilliant views of Perth and the River Swan.
