Hello all, well It's our last day in Perth & none of the internet cafe's are working properly so I'm unable to upload my photo's :-( Anyway we've had some lovely days of weather, Wednesday, we did boring stuff like open an Aussie bank account, we opened it with Westpac, there were very helpfull and friendly & only took an hour to open. We also booked our flight from Broome to Darwin we fly in two weeks, which gives us lots of time to see the west coast! wednesady we met up with Phil ( a friend of Laura's she met travelling last year) in Subiaco, which is a train ride away from Perth. We went to Maguires for a few drinks & got chatting to a local guy called Richard, we had a few debates bout our Queen but put him straight, & told him the union Jack is still on the Aussie flag LOL. Rich then tagged along to Phil's so we had a few more drinks before heading to bed at 3am! Thursday we woke up early & headed back to the hostel with Phil where we all hung round the pool enjoying the weather before going to Kings Park, it's such a lovely place, we went there on Monday & so glad we managed to go there again as it is raining today! The lawns are immaculate & the veiw is amazingly beautiful. I worked it out the the lawns are so perfect because it is that plastic grass that was in the news back home re the Russia pitch! Last night we went to Carnegies which is a bar on Murry street which is a main street in Northbridge, it's a great place we got a Chicken burger, with chips and salad for AUD$5.00. Bargain! Not up to much today, hopefully will be able to upload my photo's this evening, and we're going shopping ready for the bus trip! Take care Love lots Vicky xx xxx xx
