Jenny and i jst went for a walk from our hotel in search of some dinner and just to wander a bit.

the person at the airport was right perth is pretty dead on a sunday night.

however we did stumble across a few little gems.

There is a statue in a park near our hotel, and i’m sure its not a giant kebab but from a distance and in the dull evening light it looks like a big skewer with bits of meaton it. (for the vegie readers it could also look like bits of tofu, cucumber etc)

so thats fun a giant kebab in the middle of the city. We also ran int ken bruce in maccas, i enjoy running into people i know in strange cities.
the other thing i found amusing is we walked past the place where perth was officialy founded. it was a plaque on the ground that said

THIS CITY WAS FOUNDED ON THE 12TH AUGUST 1829 BY THE FELLING OF A TREE NEAR THIS SPOT

what a way to found a city, oh i think i might start a city, what is something momentous i could do, i know i;ll knock down a tree then declare this spot a city. we shall call it perth and it shall be home to the worlds largest kebab.
