I'm Perth for a few days over the next couple of weeks with work. What's worth looking at in my spare time?

Mustang Bar of a Wednesday night! And possibly the new "wave pool" in Joondalup.

I'll buy you a beer

I know the way to Mettams Pool, Freo and around the inner bits... dunno how to get to Joondalup I think it's up the freeway... about half way to Lano

All of the beaches are amazing, especially in the early morning.

There are great bike paths all around the river so hiring a bike is a great way to look around, especially if you're based in the CBD.

Hey Harro how did you like NZ? Any highlights or things u wouldn't do again?

Bike ride along the river sounds great. Easy to ride all the way to Freo along the river?

Yep

Dont forget to climb the bell tower. It will be an afternoon of unimaginable fun with precious memories that will last forever.

If your into non stop action ,excitement and vivacity look no further than the pinnacles The pinnacles is a "must see" tourist destination it really hits a home run and sets the benchmark.

Those last two posts are too cruel .....

Dirty Nellys in Shafto Lane for a beer with all the other expats. Leederville (orVic Park) for food (Northbridge is overrated), but you will be on expenses.....

OBH and Cott Beach Hotel for another beer, after a swim. Scarboro is construction site at present

Leave early and Sail at Peli Point after work (think the hire is still there) or if proficient go sailing for great whites at Leighton North Freo.

Go to rotto stay overnight and come back next morning.

Hire a bike, store at hotel (or work) and ride in morning and arvo.

Perth does not have surf. Just dumpers. Be careful.

It's a 360 degree video screen. Not sure why it is taking so long - they have been at it for a few years now.

A couple of geriatric farmers trying to dodge tax. They were making big bucks in the 1970's which is when they decided to create their own 'kingdom'. The farm isn't as profitable now so it is just a couple of slighly mad old geezers trying to keep up appearances.... I think you might be able to get a Hutt River Provence mug at a gift shop, and maybe a tea towel from their 1985 stock.

Out of interest how are the flies this year, thick? For a cultural delight try Armadale shopping centre.

Try Maylands cafe strip 8th Ave. 20 years ago it use to be a dive & the most seedy part of Perth.
