perth 2

Okay so I just realized I don't look very good in these pictures and I didn't take as many as I though I did. Oh well, here are some pictures from the second half of my trip. On Saturday we got up and went to the beach. We drove about an hour away to Yanchep Lagoon. We walked along the reef and saw a bunch of star fish. They were purple, orange, and one that was purple and green. Then we went swimming in the Indian Ocean and suntanned. Well at least we tried. Then we went to Yanchep National Park and we saw the koalas, had some ice cream, walked and drove around. Then we headed back to Jane's house in Sorrento a suburb of Perth. We went swimming with her niece and then had a barbeque. Later that night we went to the new movie Australia. Oh my gosh, I loved it. Everyone needs to see it. It really was like Australia though thats the funny thing. Then we went with her friends to a greek restaurant.

I'm sitting on the reef, its quite a ways out there, Jane was shooting this picture from the beach

This is the beach, your looking at the Indian Ocean, and it really is that blue if not more so.

Yanchep Lagoon



We went past Yanchep Lagoon and went to a little strip mall type place. It used to be like a type of sea world in the late 1980s. It didn't survive and now it feels like a ghost town and for some weird reason they have tons of weird statues. This is just one example. It looks like Easter Island though.

More creeper statues.

Driving to Yanchep National Park. This is what Western Australias bush/outback looks like.

The must see movie of the season. Four thumbs up. JK, no wait I'm serious.

On Sunday I got up and got ready, because I had to go home, and Jane had to go to church. She took me to Kings Park though on the way to the airport. Thats where the big memorial and the botanical gardens are at. We walked around and then she dropped me off at the airport. The trip was over, but I enjoyed every minute of it.

Me and the skyline of Perth.

The war memorial and the flame. "Lest We Forget"

These trees I saw all over Western Australia. They are bright orange and beautiful.

The australians look that you expect to see when you come over and never do. Khaki shirt and shorts, hiking boots with socks poking out the top, and the hat but I forgot its special name.

Proof that I've been there.
