Perth Day 1

Tuesday 22nd June, 2004 Leave a Comment

We catch a cab from the railway station into town and to our hotel – fortunately they already have a room available, so we are able to go straight up and start unpacking.

Check my email for the first time in over 3 days – majority of it is spam – you get that.

Head downstairs for Leanne to raid the tourist information brochures in the foryer.

Wander in to town and show Leanne the main shopping malls. Grab some lunch on the way back to the hotel – some sandwiches and stuff to eat back in the room. Leanne spends a couple of hours sleeping while I muck around on the internet for a bit (play stuff, not work stuff). Eventually get up and head around to a nearby supermarket to buy some groceries for the week. Got to make sure we’ve got some Weetbix !

Come back to the room and Leanne sits down to work out a plan for the rest of the week, while I catch up on some reading.

Cook some dinner, do some reading, catch up on the diary, surf the net a bit, watch the news, Leanne watches The Bill.

Head to bed around 10pm, looking forward to a decent nights sleep in a quiet room with a decent sized bed, and no public address system to wake us up for a 7am breakfast !!!!
