Have not gone Down Under for a very long time...and this time it's to Perth. I always remembered the crispy clear blue sky and the friendly people from my last trip to Sydney years ago. Unfortunately this time around I 'll remember how expensive things are! We stayed at the Pan Pacific and it's walking distance to the pier and Northbridge. First stop was the Lucky Shag Pub by the waterfront. Very nice view of the Swan River and a great way to spent the afternoon session here.
Other notable watering holes are The Mustang Pub which caters for an older crowd who likes to dance to country and western including rock and roll. Then there's Rosie O'Grady, Universal and The Brass Monkey. Universal has a live band too. Average price of beers is AUD 9, equivalent to almost USD10. You'll have to que and pay at the bar and that is about as much service you can get! Welcome to OZ mate...cheers! Mineral water at the convenient store is AUD2.50!! So bring lots of cash when visiting Australia!
