The height check

In the morning we went for a walk through a big park in Perth. It was hot. The sweater around my neck is there only the keep the sun off of me. You see, I got a bit sun burned the day before at the beach...

"KREEPY" was driving around. Aparantly Western Australia also allows custom plates.

We drove through the city (the centre of a city is called the "city" in Australia) of perth.

Windowswashers are actually mountaineers here it seems. This looks like more fun than being in a stupid box hanging of the roof in The Netherlands.

I wasn't aware Dolce & Gabana is also into bloody big cranes...

More of the city.

Santa is not the only one busy around Christmas...

Here you can see a shot from the park we walked in. Looking down shows a mix of parkland mixed with big motorways around the city.

This was the most bizarre parking entry/exit I have ever seen. In Australia, cars drive on the left side. The entrance to this parking garage was on the right though because it's on a one way street. So inside, you had to change sides. I see plenty of opportunity for accidents there.

Height check!

There is just no getting away from cake here. There are so many and they're huge too. Sometimes there will be 3 metres of cakes displayed like this. Unreal.

@ Ilse: Cakes are everywhere here. The whole food-scene differs a lot from the Dutch one. More choice here, a lot of places do breakfast AND lunch AND dinner which I have never seen in The Netherlands.
