I hope you've all had a good day. Mine started very well, when I looked out the window, and found the weather to have cleared. No rain, no clouds, lovely.
After leaving the hostel, I had a quick run around Fremantle. It's such a lovely suburb, somewhere where you could spend lots of time.
Keeping with my theme of yesterday, I headed to the local cemetery, to check someone out. Bon Scott is buried in the cemetery here, and like the singer from the doors, his tombstone has become a tourist icon. Apparently his tombstone is usually covered with empty beer cans, but it must have been cleared today, as it was nice and clean.
From there I headed to the Fremantle Prison, to just on a tour around the old building. Now this prison was open until 1991, and was the main prison in WA until then. I learnt some interesting facts, 1. They didn't have toilets, just buckets in their rooms, even up to 1991, oh, and there was a riot there in 1988, with the main "blocks" being set on fire and people sitting on the roof (does it sound familiar??).
From there I headed back up to Perth, and hunted down a Nissan caryard. Hey, apparently if you need Nissan parts, you have to get them from Melbourne, weird.
I then headed to the Burswood Casino to try my luck. Unfortunately I lost all of $4 on the pokies, I was very upset that they didn't have crabs table.
So now I'm back in the Perth, and will head up to Cervantes tomorrow. Hope you're day goes well.
