Perth
We finally got an opportunity to look around Perth. Perth is a nice city. Much like Singapore, it is a pleasant place to live, but there is not a lot for a tourist to do.
Michelle drove us to South Perth from where there is a beautiful view of the Perth skyline. We wandered along the south bank of the Swan River in sweltering temperatures (about 36 degrees Celsius), stopping only to investigate one group’s barbeque as they sat in the park.
Then we looked around the city itself. Even the week before Christmas in the centre of a major city, the shopping centre was not that busy. This is because most of the inhabitants live in suburbs around the city, all of which have their own parade of shops. There is no reason for the locals to come into the centre.
We had a quick look at the Perth Bell Tower, then the heat got too much, so it was back to Michelle’s for our first barbie of the trip!
