Perth, in my opinion, is Australia's most beautiful city. The city skyline is classy, not cluttered and the whole city has that "new car" feel to it. It has miles of white sandy beaches without any of the rowdy drunken backpackers of the Gold Coast.
More importantly, Perth is home to two fellow Canadians, Kara and Lach. I won't dare tell you how good they are at hosting guests, lest they not be available the next time!
After having a night of fantastic wine and some of the best home-cooked food in the Southern hemisphere, we left Perth and toured down south to the Margaret River wine region taking in in all the sites. The area is absolutely gorgeous and the weather couldn't have been better!
Here's a small taste of what we saw:
Busselton Jetty, the longest wooden jetty in the Southern Hemisphere at nearly 2km.
The beer sampler from the Colonial brewery near Margaret River.
The precise location where the Southern Ocean (or Antarctic Ocean) meets the Indian Ocean. They tasted the same to me...
A Blue Tongue lizard giving us attitude near Meelup Beach, WA.
This was so cool! This is NOT a bird sanctuary, this is a regular old city park in Perth. The birds will fly down and land all over you if you bring them some bird seed!
Kara and Lach, our Canuck counterparts to the West! Thanks guys and Happy Birthday Kara!
