Australia Holiday 2009 - 15 January Perth
both early raises and were ready to meet Graham's other friend in time
for 9 am. Unfortunately he wasn't so ready and it was nearly 9.30 am
before he turned up.
First task of the day was to find somewhere for breakfast and we choose
a simple cafe inside a shopping centre, turned out to be a simple and
workable breakfast.
Then took the long-ish walk to King's Park and the highlight for me had
to be the guys we meet on the steps of Jacob's Ladder up to the park.
Very impressive specimens of manhood.
The park itself was also very impressive and included an astonishing
number of memorials, including the one to the Bali Bombing tragedy. On a
lighter note, I certainly enjoyed the tree top walk and the views of the
city from the various look out locations and towers in the park.
When it all had got too hot for all of us, we returned to the city and I
returned to the hotel room, via picking up a trimer and more water.
Graham returned later and we went out to dinner. Tonight was not as
formal as last night and we went down to the quay and enjoyed an
excellent Chinese dinner overlooking the water.
