We spent the morning playing 'Supa'Golf in the Swan Valley. It's a new(ish) concept in that the balls are about the size of snooker balls and the club heads are similarly over-sized. This means it is impossible to hit a ball more than, say, about 150 metres. It was a par-36, nine hole course and we both did reasonably well (I thought) to finish on 45 and 46 shots, as expected Jen won by a shot.

After this we made the short trip to AQWA (Aquarium of Western Australia) which was excellent. The best thing about the place was that they exhibit different animals depending on their climate. Hence we went through a zone for Southern/Western Aus, one for the Tropics etc...

This afternoon we had our first decent look at Perth - it looks like a nice city with some great architecture and shops. We're going back on Saturday after we've dropped the campervan off. We're now in Fremantle and will be here most of tomorrow checking out the Gaol and looking round the market.

We'll be sad to leave Aus (on Sunday morning after overnight flight from Perth to Brisbane Sat night) but we're also really excited by New Zealand - it'll be nice not to have to drive a thousand kilometres without seeing anything/one...
