This is a view of Perth from Kingspark.

Perth is the cleanest city I've ever seen.  It is absolutely  wonderful!!  There are very few old buildings.

The roads are smooth and well kept...

 

  The skies are the bluest I have ever seen.  The air
is clear and the sunsets spectacular..there's no color just the glowing ball of fire sinking into the horizon.  Australia is the only place you can see the constellation called the Southern Cross. (the gif at the top of the page is of the Southern Cross)
 
 

Then there is the Indian ocean...

This picture was taken in August of 1998, it was the end of the Australian winter and the beginning of spring.  It was a crisp day the wind was
strong and the Indian wild.

Obviously this is the beach, it was covered with seaweed.  But, none the
less clean.

australia is a country rich in history, some good and some bad like any other country.  I am sure most people know Australia began as a penal colony
of England.  When the English landed on this new land all they saw was
bad land.   (Little did the know the beauty of this land)    Who better to settle then convicts? Most of the convicts were there for minor offenses like stealing.

This is one of the old jails of WA Australia.. it was so cool to walk through. I would not have wanted to be a prisoner there.
Especially for the aborigines.  They were crammed into one cell and
chained to a pole in the floor.  The other prisoners were put into a single cells that had a straw mat and the bare necessities.  If you think of a small  1/2 bathroom  it was about that size.
