We had booked in to a quiet hostel at Scarborough Beach which is called the Western Beach Lodge and it is fantastic. Small, super friendly and with lots of long term visitors it's more like a shared house than a hostel. We spent the first couple of days in and around Perth, visiting the city and spending time in beautiful Kings Park. We also had a trip to Fremantle. The weather was pretty changeable as it's just in to Spring so we had 4 seasons in one day pretty much every day! After spending the first 3 nights in a mixed dorm with 3 other guys (and images of their boxers everywhere) we were upgraded to a private room which was great and we stayed there for another week until we managed to find a car we wanted to buy!
It was an experience buying the car as when we went to view it, not only were we given a free pizza made by the local Hari Krishna's but they also lent us a car as it was raining and we had come on the bus! We also used the garage to turn the 4x4 in to camper, free space and tools and beers at the end when it was finished! Great service from John and Larry at All Autos, Balcatta! Once the car was ready, we said goodbye to Perth and headed for our South Western tour....
