We awoke to a gorgeous sunny day. After brekky we went into the city as we had some shopping to do, some very exciting shopping! We caught the bus to Stirling Station and then got the train into the city. We got off the train at Leederville Station today which was just outside the city centre. With our map of the area we soon found our first shop of the day, Headphonic, which wasn't far from Leederville Station. We came here as Jay was getting a new pair of headp...

After brekky we left Freo and headed for the city. We decided to go up to Kings Park and take in the view again. The weather was mixed and we drove through a few showers on the drive out of Freo and onto the Kwinana Freeway. Closer to the city centre the freeway goes very close to the Swan River.

It warned of dangerous winds in excess of 125 kilometres per hour that ...

We woke up to an overcast sky and to showers tinkling down onto the roof. We had brekky and soon after the grey lifted, the sky became blue and the sun came out to shine. It was a lovely warm day. We decided to have a walk into Freo. We made our way through the new housing estate to the ocean and then followed the path along the foreshore into town. We had a mooch around the shops and had another look around the market hall. The market stalls are in a beautiful h...
