I really miss those days when I get to drive T1 to school and then get to enjoy that 10 minute drive home by myself and the radio, all in peace and solitude. The drive is very pleasant and that early in the morning, you can still smell.......click to learn what next.

No visit to Perth is ever complete without a drive to Fremantle, a popular port located south west of Perth.
