From our house sit in the community of Bassendean we have been ideally located to do some sightseeing. One of the pleasant surprises was finding the convenience of the transit system and the helpful, friendly Transit Officers working the train lines. Whether taking the train into Perth and Fremantle or driving around Guildford and the Swan Valley, exploring this area has been a breeze.



Stopping in the Tourist Information office in Guildford was a gold mine. The staff were very excited to update us that they had been named the #1 Tourist Information in the country. Indeed they were fantastic and had reams of info on Guildford and it’s history.




Our time in the Perth area of Western Australia has been three months very well spent. We have met wonderful people and had an opportunity to appreciate some of the oldest history Australia has to offer. If you get the chance to come “down under” do not short yourself, come west and enjoy WA.
What? No pic of the Pecksens’ having a wee taste at the wineries? 🍷 It looks like a wonderful place to visit
