Fremantle Markets

After a lazy start ... in fact to be honest most of my mornings start leisurely ... I'm catching a train with Danny to Fremantle.

It's a sailing day. We're watching. But we get a bit distracted.

We arrive hungry and thirtsy, so it's a trip to the Sail and Anchor for lunch and beer. Danny picks us an Amber Ale and we tuck …

Me and Steve caught up with Sean at the Pig and Whistle a couple of days after my return from Bunbury.

The dolphins live in the Swan River because it …

... since it was started in the 1800s. Freo is pretty laid back and I ended up staying here a few nights. The Fremantle Markets are supposed to be famous and a bit interesting...fruit stalls, giftwares and restaurants in a typical market setting ...
