8th March, 2009

After an early start we arrived in Perth early enough to take the free shuttle bus into the city centre. The drive into Perth had taken us through some very obviously rich areas with houses to make your jaw drop. Not knowing what to expect of Perth we were pleasantly surprised to find a very vibrant and busy shopping area. We were all tired after the long drive so we had a quick coffee, a look at the shops and then jumped onto the shuttle bus and took the long way back to the hotel. We will be returning to Perth after our 5 days drive north and will have more time to explore.
