Perth XVI

At The VIC we decided it would be a good idea to pay Kings Park another visit.

I remember back in 1995 we spent a night there, under one of the trees of Honour Avenue, in our green Holden Commodore - I guess these days you´re not allowed to anymore...

It´s such a beautiful place, so calm, hard to believe it actually is in the city...

And with these makes me feel home anyway ;-)

Yes, "a special place" for sure!

... with six seasons.

No idea where Ingo took this pic!

The obligatory pic of the Swan Brewery that next time will be visited:

Love the Australian flag in this pic:

And certainly the palm trees.

This was taken by Ingo, again I don´t know where, but is it true they made a sign in relief we finally left?
Bet they installed it right away on December 07th ;-)
On December 2nd 1999 we finally sold our Nissan Patrol LWB:

As you can see with a heavy heart...
For once because it was like selling your home, after all we lived in him.
For knowing it´s real now, this trip is over now.
For me also the fear: What´s next? In Germany I had to look for my first job.

But also because we didn´t sell this wonderful car to another couple driving off to another great trip throughout Australia, but to a niggardly man with a fat son.
A man who had obviously enough money - this car was to become his second car for driving in dunes, just for fun. Yet he bet us down as much as he could, us, back then a young couple with little money.
Shabby, he was...

But gone with negative thoughts, right? Better enjoy this beautiful view:

Love how these two enjoy a picnick in the shade...

A look down on Bell Tower, the place where our love lock not went:

You get thirsty walking around all day? Here it´s no worries, you don´t need to take water with you (well, we certainly did anyways):

I know but one place in Braunschweig where you find drinking water like this! But maybe I´m not well enough informed...

Yep, Christmas is on the way!

And certainly boabs:

The tree top walk:

Such a beautiful place. If I lived there guess I´d spend many hours there with a good book in the shade...

But I don´t and hence, we made it...

... not back home yet.

Yes, a fourth entry is to come, documenting one day in Perth.
I´m sorry, but there are so many beautiful places to take pics of!
