Perth walkies

 We walked around for a bit after visiting the music festival. To answer your question, Elizabeth, the ducks are actually thrown in the river, <= they made the news. You don't keep them, just buy tickets with numbers on them that match the rubber duckies. They earned $5100!  

It is a lovely town.




There are lots of lush gardens, this one designed to attract wildlife. 

We took a walk on the bridge. It is pretty.


Aren't these lovely? 

Well, YAM, this one is for you! 






Kids in Crete

The kids continue being beach bums, in Chania. Pool bunnies, too!


A panoramic shot!

Perth is a nice town, but the star of this blog is the pano with the two-headed SiL

Those sweet porches :) People make them look so inviting. I'm always pleased to see gardens planted to attract wildlife. Pretty!

It does indeed look like a wonderful town - I am pleased to see that the travellers are enjoying themselves too.

Beautiful gardens and lovely homes, two storied, and in the town ,green areas. Someone had some very forward thinking with the town planning.

I loved reading about the ducks. I laughed when kids and parents had to push the ducks down the river, since it was so low. That was a LOT of ducks in that photo from the news.

Some of those homes had porches that were beautifully decorated and the river is absolutely charming. It's a beautiful place and you captured it perfectly.

What a lovely place to live. I see you have the same problems I encounter when using the panoramic function and people move.
