Perth – More Beaches & Scitech

We headed for Perth’s local beaches to see how they compare with the rest of the coast. Cottesloe is a trendy & upmarket beach-side suburb near the port of Fremantle. It is famous for its beaches, cafes and relaxed lifestyle. Recently there was a shark attack, but that has not deterred plenty of surfers. We also caught up with Kuka (mate from work) who was over here for a short holiday. We had a few craft beers watching another sunset.

The kids had been looking forward to visiting Scitech and were not disappointed. It had an amazing dinosaur show with robotics. Matt thought they were real, so we had to reassure him before we could get a photo of him with a dinosaur. There were plenty of interactive science displays and an amazing space show in their Planetarium. Not just fun for the kids!

The Prado has been fixed at the quoted price of $770. The diff is now quiet as a mice, so much relieved when we cross the Nullarbor.

Matt had to be held - not quite sure yet

Time to hide

Ok, I know it's not real now

Even the big kids had loads of fun
