Steve and Chris Lipscombe, friends of Kenn from UK, visited during October 2003.
This site provides a video diary of their trip around some of the southern parts of WA, and especially Perth.
Steve & Chris remarked later that the "Highlights of the holiday:-
......... in no particular order:
- The spa sessions (if only we'd had more time!)
-
- Driving / listening to the Sandman -
- Bell tower -
- Goldrush tour, and pissing off the bus driver by
wandering off towards the old shafts
- night out in Narrogin
- Raging Bull beer
- surfing wave rock
- that pub on the last Thursday night
(especially the band)
- the wildlife and weird vegetation
- walking Woody
- Whoopass Wednesday
- Ngilgigilgigilgi cave
- Mandurah boat trip
- Perth walkabout (and finding a good Scottish beer
at the Moon & Tanner)
- finding out where people we've never met, heard of, or ever likely to meet,
live (or used to live) in Busselton
- Tim Tam's, and the art of using them as coffee straws
- Joe's Fish Shack and the other
Freo pubs
- the weather (at Kal and during the second week anyway)
- Alistair's coffee alarm in his new car
- Helen's animal impressions at the caravan
And of course, rediscovering that our sense of humour is on the same wavelength!!
Low lights of the holiday (again in no particular order):-
- The Great SLR Camera Museum! (not really,
as it gave us plenty of laughs)
- Emu bitter
- the weather (the first week apart from the Kal trip)
- running out of Tim Tam's
- going back to work!!!
