Thursday 30th October 2008


We've missed a day, of course, by travelling in a westerly direction over the International Dateline, I believe there's quite a ceremony when ships cruise over it, but not for us on a plane in the early hours.
The descent down to Melbourne gave us some lovely views of the city from the air - see left, where the photo almost looks like an Ordnance Survey map.
After a long journey described by Dave, we were pleased to arrive at our hotel in Perth and, in contrast to some of our experiences in the USA, the place is roomy. The hotel is not spectacularly luxurious, but we have a SUITE! Two bedrooms, a separate shower room and a kitchen area. Wow! And all for a price about half that of the hostel.
