Fizz on the beach

Today we leave for Perth. On our last beach/reef day we celebrated by lunching with some Seaview Brut de Brut on the sand. It tasted great, but just about anything would in such a setting.

I guess six days is long enough here, although I wouldn't mind staying another week. I've exhausted the dining and wine options in this town: there's whaler's (the best), a Pizza joint and a Chinese, plus an unappealing restaurant at one of the resorts. The Liqour stores (supermarkets don't stock booze) have a very small range: last night we had a Lindemans Riesling that was OK and a Blue Pyrenees Shiraz that was also OK. Commercial Aussie wine is consistent n'all, but it loses its allure pretty quickly if that's all there is to choose from.

We'll have about half a day to explore Perth before setting off for the homeward leg.
