Last day at Scrborough beach and 1st day at Feemantle "Freo". Freo is a small idyllic town with great harbour and lots of shops - not for a budget traveller...

Hello sunshine!!!

We have now arrived at sunny Scarborough beach, district to the west of Perth. On Saturday will be heading to Geraldton which are 430km North of here. It has been sunny and approx. 30 degrees so far....perfect!
Everything has gone smoothly excluding the little issue with learning how to apply sun cream properly. We, and especially David, look a bit patchy at the moment :)

Quote of the week from local bus timetable: "Surfboards of 2m or less can be carried on route 458 provided they do not impete passenger movements within the bus, obscure the driver's vision or constitute a source of discomford to passengers."....how tight is that....and we thought the ozzies were suposed to be laid back :-)


At Heathrow... our ride to Singapore -
Qantas A 380


Us "lording" it...
