Visitors

We've just had our first weekend visitors from the east and we felt educated enough to show Brian and Silke some of the highlights of Perth.

After a leisurely walk to Subiaco Farmers Markets we headed to the coast for a quick swim in the Indian Ocean before driving to Fremantle for an ale at Little Creatures. Fremantle is a port city located 19 kilometres south of Perth and like many port cities it has loads of historical buildings with some of them being restored by the University of Notre Dame Australia who occupy these buildings in the area known as West End.

Fremantle has not only maintains its port heritage but has a strong sailing history with the America's Cup yachting race being held here in 1987 and this year Fremantle will host the ISAF Sailing World Championships.

Any trip to Perth isn't complete until you've experienced a sunset over the water, especially if its at Cottesloe Beach.
