We have just returned from a short visit to Western Australia to visit friends. The sunset from the plane window was spectacular.
Sunrise the next morning from Fremantle, where our friends live, was also stunning.
They live beside the sea and the winter weather was perfect for a walk on our first day.
Perth is a beautiful city. We enjoyed a walk beside the river at Elizabeth Quay, a relatively new area in the city.
I liked this terrace tucked into the facade of the building .
People living in the high rise buildings have a great place to walk.
There is an excellent choice of cafes and restaurants. We didn’t go hungry.
We were very impressed with the markets at Fremantle. There was something for everyone there, one of the best markets I have ever been to.
Our visit was only a couple of days. There is much to be seen in and around Perth, we will return soon.
The sunset over the ocean was brief but spectacular.
Thank you for the great pics. Haven’t been home in 9 years! A great review. Getting ready now covid has lifted to go home and see the rellies.

Our visit was very brief, it was mostly to see friends. We loved the bits we saw and definitely need to go back.

Lovely to see these photos! I used to live in Freemantle and had a stall at Freo markets. Pleased to see that it hasn’t lost its authenticity

The market was excellent. Many things found their way home with us. It was great to see such a well patronised market…lucky Fremantle.

Thanks Debra for the fabulous photos of Perth, they make me want to visit again! I always thought the architecture and homes just superb, and also the gardens. Your sunset photos are wonderful.
