Today we did a ‘city tour’, past some of the older buildings around the east end of Perth. These included Government House, The Deanery, St Georges Cathedral, the Old Fire Station, St Mary’s Cathedral and Convent and the Perth Mint.

We lunched at the Moon and Sixpence, visited the WA Art Gallery, had a drink on the Swan (at ‘The Last Shag’!!) and walked through King’s Park.
