"The Most isolated City in the World" Perth by Charlie_UK

Perth Travel Guide: 2,280 reviews and 4,795 photos

Worth the trip

It was a three-hour flight from Adelaide, but when you get there you find a city that is compact, easy to get around, sunny and full of entertainment possibilities. Oh, and they play Cricket there too.

Pros and Cons

Pros:It's great when you get there
Cons:Not much actually works properly
In a nutshell:Best place to be in event of global nuclear war.

Last visit to Perth: Dec 2002

Sorry mate.You'll find the people with that look are actually one pf the 35,000 Kiwis that live in the city.They are also known as South Sea Pommies due to the incessant whining they do about how good it is back where they come from.
