July 4: Many Roads Lead to Fremantle

Many roads lead to Fremantle, including the Jellyfish Road (aka the Swan River)

Loaded the three Vicco visitors on board the ferry to Perth, from where they were planning to transfer to a ferry to Fremantle. Bless 'em, they're in for a treat viewing the mansions along the river. We did the ride for Gavstar's birthday last month, and we're STILL horified at one house that is on the market for $85 million.

The house has its own bowling alley, 40-seat movie theatre, three (or four? ach, who's counting?) guest houses and a custom-built bat cave for the boat. Got me to asking, "how do rich people meet people if they're holed up at home?"

A: The internet.

Today I am thankful for my friends who I have personal and meangingful connections with.
