As soon as you get a chance, get your bums out to the beaches. Lovely. Last time I was in perth, I went to a great little cafe/resteraunt in Cottesloe, right on the beach, fantastic to have your brekkie whilst watching the sea.

That wasn't the Blue Duck by any chance, was it? :)

If not, I heartily recommend the Blue Duck for a good feed and a classy night out! :)

Thanks for all your messages peeps :D

It is all very surreal, cant believe we are actually here yet on the other hand cant believe it's only been a couple of days, feels like we've been here weeks. Last night in the hotel tonight, going to stay with our new friends Gareth and Debs tomorrow in Morley, been looking at cars today and off to test drive a Daihatsu Terios on Monday (it's PURPLE!!! FAB!) so we can have a bit of independance. http://www.hinterland.com.au/daihatsu/terios/index.php

Perth is fantastic, we're not city people but I love it! Doesnt feel like a "proper" city, if you know what I mean, although just been for something to eat, was only 8.30pm but nothing open so had to go into Hungry Jacks. I'm sure somewhere there is a street full of restaurants etc that we keep missing - LOL! :D

Congratulations and welcome to Australia, from "the other side of the island" - hope you soon get settled and enjoy everything life has to offer.
