Australia Day Fireworks – Swan River ,Perth, 2010
I don’t post a lot about my hometown, or even my home country, because that is not the nature of my blog. This blog is all about travel and traveling, so writing about where I live during the “boring” non travel time doesn’t fit into the mix. I don’t find it interesting to writer about, and strangely, don’t think I am an expert on Perth, Western Australia, even though I have lived here for 44 years, and know more about it than anywhere else. Also, I just don’t feel it would be very interesting for my readers.
However, as our National Day, Australia Day, is just around the corner (two days away- January 26th) I feel a patriotic post once a year can do no harm. I am fortunate enough to live close enough to our glorious Swan River to have a great view of our city’s major celebration of Australia Day, a fireworks spectacular – “City of Perth Lotto Skyworks”. I have posted a series of photos from last years (2010) fireworks.
