A day in "Freo"

Hello all-
Unfortunately, Russ is still being bothered by the flu, so he stayed home for the day. Jan and I took off to explore some of the city. We started our day by walking to the "Round House", which is a restored jail and was the first permanent building in Freemantle. After stopping for coffee (at one of the many cafes in the area) and a croissant, we headed to the beach and set foot in the Indian Ocean! Then it was off to a number of other sites including the Freemantle prison (where the British sent their convicts and whose labor created the infrastructure of the city), the market area and the Art Museum. Lunch was at at micro brew called Little Creatures. Dave had marinated kangaroo on skewers and Jan had cooked squid with a number of spices and chilies . Very interesting indeed! Walking around the city gave us the opportunity to enjoy the different plants and trees native to the area, but now is time to give the feet a bit of a break.

Until next time mates,
D&J
