Perth

Day 3 – July 22, 2014 – Perth - distance travelled:  84 kms - 15^oC high; 8^oC low.  First order of the day was organizing some food, as we had nothing whatsoever in our cabin.  Luckily we found a BP service station about a block away which carried some cereal and milk (for which it charged somewhat inflated prices). After breakfast Don and Gwen took a taxi and picked up our rental Toyota Landcruiser Troop Carrier, which was followed by a grocery run with the kids, lunch and a visit to Kings Park.  We strolled around the beautiful botanical section with plants and trees from various regions of Australia.  Unfortunately it was raining on and off which did not do justice to the park.  The sun set just after 5pm which makes for a short day.  A home cooked meal in the cabin and in bed by 9:30pm.
