NO RAIN

Sunday was a gorgeous day, no rain!!! It was the first day that we have been here that it didn't rain at all :) and  I can honestly say I now know why everyone loves Perth.  Of course we had nothing fun planned but a day at the laundry mat or Laundrette as they say... And let me tell you, using the dryers is serious business.  The place we went to is right down the road from where we live and one of the few in the area.  Everyone pretty much just goes to use the dryers (which will set you back $3 a load for 17 minutes and $4 a load for the washer) and you better take turns LOL We just assumed that because we were already using a dryer that we could continue using it considering we had several loads  but no... Luke went to put our second load in and this giant size man, probably 6'5, who looked like a professional basketball player, stepped up right behind him and said "You gotta share mates, you just used it " ... He wasn't really mean about it but he was definitely intimidating and I got scared and we let him have it LOL. We were probably there a total of 2 1/2 hours and I never want to do that again.  I definitely won't wait till the laundry piles up like that again :) After we finished we decided we needed some fun, one of the parks I have been wanting to go to was about 10 minutes away, so off we went!

So far, Kings Park is my favorite place we have gone to ( I know we haven't been to very many) it is sooo green, there are so many things to look at, and the views of the city are amazing! They have a war memorial, botanic garden, water garden, places to eat, and tons of space to just hanging out and do whatever!  We didn't make it all the way through but we plan on going back very soon :D
