Sunday at Fremantle Boat Harbor

I was chatting with a friend one Sunday morning a couple of weekends ago, and somehow our conversation led to the potential of my meeting a millionaire or billionaire here in Perth.  I said I’d have to go to Fremantle where all the millionaires keep their yachts and she suggested I should investigate this potential.  So I decided, it’s such a beautiful Sunday, lunch on the board-walk would be lovely.

So I jumped in my new zippy little car I bought about six weeks ago, picked up my friend John (I owed him a nice lunch after that evening he chauffeured me in a nice white stretch limo) and drove down the beautiful coast road to Fremantle.

 

 


My zippy little car



For those of you who might not know Fremantle….think about the America’s Cup (Yachting) and remember back in the late 80’s when we won the cup off you guys and the race was brought to Fremantle.

I havent been to Fremantle in more than ten years so it was lovely to go down there and see how much it’s changed.

 





 

 


 






The seafood was so beautiful and fresh and not too expensive considering the size of the portions.

 

John (who is on a diet so he skipped the side of French fries) ordered barbecued squid which were succulent and tender and had a lovely smokey barbecue flavor.  I ordered barbecued scallops (my favorite seafood) and it was to die for!!! The salads were so fresh and crisp and came with a beautiful dressing.

 

 

 


 

After lunch we went for a bit of a stroll across to the park and then back to the car for a nice drive back up the coast and home. 
 

 


 






It was a very nice day but we didn’t get to meet any millionaires or billionaires for that matter. 

 

But who cares, the day could not have been better.

Life of the idle rich! Not you, of course. But it's nice to live it up every once in awhile! Again, I'm envious.

I am idle right now but definitely not rich... But if I make regular visits to this beautiful Yacht paradise, well you just never know!!
