The Perth Mint

No let up, even though it is our last day in Perth, and Australia.

Well worth the entry fee (and because we had tickets from our tram tour earlier in the week we got two tickets for the price of one!) to watch the pouring of the gold that occurs on the hour, which is preceeding by a short tour.

We then decided to have a light lunch in the The Perth Mint Tea Room. My human, despite being in the land of Oz for almost a whole month, had not yet had a pie, so she opted for the gourmet pie (chunky beef) whilst our two companions had the Traditional High Tea - finger sandwiches, scones with jam and cream and cakes.

We then made our way home, stopping off en route to send a couple of parcels back home by air :-)

This trip is not our last adventure however. Lynne and Kim (who dined with us on Sunday evening at the lunatic asylum if you remember) have invited us all round for a pre-flight meal (we don't have to be at the airport until 10 pm).
