Today we went to the Fremantle markets. Its a bunch of different markets that set up in several places. Just keep walking and you will find more to see!  Don't be fooled, the picture above is the most antique thing I saw! But luckily for me I love food, and this market was awesome for that!
All the fruit stalls had tasty samples! It was really interesting because some of the fruit they were selling I had never seen before!
Ostrich eggs!  No kidding! Look at the regular sized eggs next to them.  They are heavy too.  It was so neat!
Look into the face of evil....  Fremantle is the port in Perth where everything comes in. Including some really evil looking things.
These were huge!  I would have touched one but I was scared! look at the spikes!


They had some neat looking flowers. The lady was so nice!  The color ones absorb food coloring to be that way. They are naturally white.
The roads were lined with street performers.  This little girl was not good at all. But she was so cute people where throwing money into her case.
As we were finding our way back to the car a haunting noise of Didgeridoo came echoing our way. These guys were playing at the entrance of another market.
On our way to Costtesloe Beach there is a Dingo flower company. This building is HUGE.

This beautiful beach is the home of Sculpture by the sea.  I took so many pictures that I am just going to  go into it tomorrow.  It's quit a big event. and the setting could not be more breath taking. It was super sunny but I didn't seem to get a sunburn, but I am drinking tons of water just to make sure I don't get dehydrated.
We drove  into Perth along the Perth river.  I saw so many boats, I was able to snap a quick shot of one! I only had to lean over Roland in the Driver seat and try to get a snap before a car got in the lane between me and the river.  Piece of cake!
Perth from the car on the way to the Renaissance fair.
Roland in his element!  Armed with a 2 handed axe.  He really enjoyed all the weapons and armor. We both smiled at the kids running around in their little outfits.

 Unfortunately this was the last stop in our busy day so most the the vendors and such had gone home. Upside we got in free, YAY!

Tomorrow the Sculpture by the Sea pictures!

Muwah!
