Mike David and Brian Many thanks for your feedback. I am visiting my brother and sisters in Australia for the first time since they left 20+ years ago. The main purpose of the trip is to see family before we are too old. On the Brisbane side I believe a side excursion to the Sunshine coast is planned for 5 days. I was planning to push to see Freemantle when in Perth. I am trusting that the family has a good idea of where to go. I was asked if there is anything I wanted to see but had no idea. Thanks once again Patrick

Perth is amazingly unphotogenic. It is not a city of great character or charisma. Fremantle is way more interesting, and perhaps it qualifies, seeing that it is more or less attached to Perth. There is an amazing lack of interesting architecture in Perth. Fremantle has the convict era stuff which has merit. I can't think of any particular advice I could offer anyone, but am happy if you want to put your friend in touch. Somewhere back in the Tag thread I may have put up some pics of the old railway workshops and brickworks, all of which are being preserved. I find "industrial archeology" to be of photogenic significance, but with almost everything being less than 200 years old, there's not a lot of choice. There's an awful lot of concrete and corrugated iron here, and some bizarre recent modernistic footbridges and stadiums that attract attention by controversy rather than merit." Do you want me to pass your email over? > On 12/08/2023 08:15 pkn291...@gmail.com wrote: > > > I am planning a trip to Australia end of October.
