Go visit my little bro for some free accommodation.... although he lives in Warnbro with is miles from the heart of Perth

However when you are down south, check out Rockingham Foreshore, we spent a day there, Master B had a ball, beautiful parks full of playgrounds right on the beach (think Semaphore in Adelaide .... or was that Sephamore? LOL )

And yes, Kings Park is lovely, there is (was, it was a while ago?) this massive big lookout which had the most amazing views of Perth, Swan River etc, hopefully its still there

We went to the Perth Zoo, I really cant remember it, was unremarkable compared to the ones in the other capital cities. I do remember doing a lunch cruise on the Swan River from Perth to Freo and back which was great.

When you check out Freo, there is HEAPS to do... so make a day (or two) out of it!
