We have arrived in the mighty Perth WA! Yes, it certainly is a city with all the traffic, people going everywhere and the hustle and bustle you expect of any city. We are in a caravan park not far from the airport, so instead of the gentle surf rolling in we are getting the roar of jet engines: I know which one I prefer, but one has to make sacrifices in this world.
Once again a day of domesticity - washing etc, so no real adventures to talk of yet. Tomorrow we go into the city via 'public transport' ( I have a paranoia of this but don't tell anyone). Then we are to catch the ferry to Freemantle, have fish'n chips on the esplanade and then come home, or go to the park or ????.?
Denis has to get his new window for the camper fitted in the morning, so he and Bec will be off early, leaving the rest of us to our own devices. We are to catch up with friends of ours tomorrow, while Denis and Bec have some friends also to catch up with and Elaine hopes to catch up with her uncle. Seems we all have someone over here to say G'day to - Doug and Rob might have to amuse themselves, it seems.
The best part about a caravan park, beside washing facilities is of course the company you meet at 'happy hour'. Not only do you have different conversation to make, but you also learn a lot about places you might like to see or where the best fishing up the coast is etc. the only problem with this is you do tend to get carried away with the time and before you know it - happy hour goes into evening supper! Oh, never mind the sun will shine in the morning - I hope?.....
