Mabel and Wilf go to the big City

Or the biggest city hereabouts anyway. We went into Perth to see some of the sights and look at the shops. After much mooching and not getting lost we came across St George's clock. Every hour, on the hour, a little crowd of tourists gather and St George slays his dragon.


Perth is a rapidly changing city. Mining is at boom time, and bringing with it investment that's altering the face of the city centre. Here and there you get glimpses of the old and the new almost side by side.



After tramping about since 8.30am - whaddya know - it was time for sum tucker! Fast food oriental style seemed to be the order of the day - Seafood Laska for me, Singapore Beehoon for Wilf. Yum.
