York to Alfred Cove

Day 70 - York to Alfred Cove

York, Fremantle, Alfred Cove, Bentley, Alfred Cove

Friday, 29 March 2013
Packed up and said goodbye to the Wollongong couple and then drove to Freemantle. Had a drive around and a walk with Tuka. Was going to Rotnest Island but found out it was going to cost $67 return and I would have to leave Tuka alone for too many hours. Decided to visit Curtin University instead.

On the way stopped at Thompkins Park in the suburb of Alfred Cove. It is located on the south side of the Swan River. Lots of people picnicing, walking and cycling. Tuka managed to get his feet wet in the river.

Drove to the Curtin University of Technology at Bentley, Perth. The uni reminds of The University of Wollongong with its mixture of old and new buildings surrounded by large trees and shrubs. Tuka and I had a walk around the quiet campus.

Drove back to Thompkins Park to stay the night as the parking area is off the main road and not next to any expensive houses. Went for a few walks with Tuka. Watched the black swans and the wind surfers. Later that night a man from the local security service said hello and told me he would keep an eye on the van during the night.
