Fremantle is the largest metropolitan retail centre outside of Perth and attracts over 2 million visitors annually. The city is renowned for its cosmopolitan atmosphere with strong southern European, particularly Italian, influences. Attractions include the WA Maritime Museum, Prison, Fishing Boat Harbour and the famous Cappuccino Strip. Bon Scott, lead singer of AC/DC, although born in Scotland, was raised in Fremantle and spent the early years of his musical career there.
We headed over to see the annual street carnival.
Street stilt dancers. The " ladies" are puppets.
The Ring leader's magic wand is a little misplaced.

The last few days have been particularly hot seeing the temparature rise to 39 deg C. The pool got up to 29 deg C, which I'm told is very hot for November.
D, C & K have been attending Scrapbooking classes. It's not just pretty pictures you make!

I am very impressed with all your handiwork. We've been at the leisure pool as well as the kids had an inservice day today, although we were indoors thank goodness as it is now getting very cold and wet here. The street carnival looks good fun and very entertaining. Can't believe how much different activities there are to do and see nearby. Looking forward to coming over next year hopefully.
Hi Guys. looks really colourful and the weather looks inviting. It's just the typical 'dreich weather here' We could probably match your 39 degrees though. Only problem is that we'd be using the Fahrenheit scale. some things never change.
Look forward to seeing you all at christmas time.
