Anyway, back to the weekend. Saturday was spent driving around looking for buildings of a particular era for Chloe's Architecture course. In fact half of Sunday was spent doing the same. We also had lunch at Mussel bar (http://www.musselbar.com.au/) then went to the Maritime museum and the roundhouse, which is the oldest remaining building in Western Australia. It used to be a jail (www.fremantle.wa.gov.au/things2c/html/roundhouse.cfm).
The Mussel bar is very nice. Not particularly cheap but good quality. We will book and pre-order next time as it was quite a wait to get served.
The Maritime museum was very interesting with many historical items recovered from wrecks along the Australian coast. See below pictures and captions from the visit.

Chloe wasn't too impressed with the human remains but Kaitlyn doesn't seem to be bothered. This poor guy was 38 years old when he died, was missing a foot, had a broken right collar bone and an axe wound in his head. Didn't say what he died of !!!
