Perth Day 42

Thursday 13^th September 

Today is our lunch cruise on the Swan River and our car had to have a service and we had to be at the dealer in Osborne Park by 7:00am, the courtesy bus took us into town and we were there by 8:30am.  We had just started to look around and most of the others had arrived so we decided to hop on the red double Decker bus which did a tour around Perth city.  This took 2hrs and was really good worth doing as it pointed out a lot of things we will have to come back and see.  Kings Park was really good could not hop off as the day was getting on.

By the time we got back to wharf it was after 11:00am and we had to meet the others at 12:30pm so we went for a quick walk through some of the streets looking at the shops.

Now everyone is here ready for the cruise and we got our boarding tickets to board at 1:15.  Once on the buffet lunch was very nice and plenty of it.  Pete was a bit rowdy as was into the red wine; the scenery changed all the time and we arrived at a winery for tasting.  Once back on the boat we headed home with some nice cake and cup of tea & coffee.

As we pulled into the wharf our courtesy bus was leaving so we missed it and had to catch the train to the nearest station and lucky the Nissan service people sent the courtesy bus there to meet us or we had a long walk to the dealer and time was now after 5:00pm.

Collected the car and all was well, fixed all our little problems we had like our driver’s side window since we got the new one it when you put the window up it came back down automatically.

We had a lovely cake for Rhonda’s birthday and we gave her a present.
