Well we left the lovely Margaret River Region in the hope of finding some finer weather in order to explore the portside of Fremantle. Unfortunately, as seems to be the theme of this trip, the weather didn't improve so we were a little cold and wet, however we still managed to have fun all the same!
Some of the highlights:
- Little creatures brewery
- The Monk Bar (I'm starting to sound like a regular alcoholic!)
- The Fremantle Markets
- Exploring the cool streets with old style buildings - I've never been to the UK but it felt like it could have been a bit English)
- Walks along the jetty spotting fish, squid and crabs
We would have loved to have headed over to Rottnest Island as EVERYONE suggests that this is a 'must do' whilst you're in the area. We could have gone, but the weather was foul and the snorkelling would have been no good - we are definitely hitting these shores in summer next time!
Sadly we have no photos of Freo as were on foot most most of the time (yes, even though it was raining!) so we decided to leave the bulky camera at home.
The only photos I do have are pretty boring - a view from our hotel room in North Fremantle.
The Wrap Up:
Glad we had: Haircuts!! (we were both well overdue plus we needed to get out of the weather!)
Wish we had: Remembered the name and pre-booked the Quest apartments right on the waterfront in the heart of Freo - it was booked out. Also wish we had better weather for Nick to be able to go out on the charter boat.
