Perth -Part 1 Kings Park

We had been told of a good caravan park in Perth which was near the airport. It is a large shady park owned by the Seventh Day Adventist Church and is near a bus and train station.
Our first day we got the train into the city and then the free CAT bus which took us near Kings Park.The free buses circle the inner city every 10 mins and are constantly full.
Kings Park is one of the worlds largest inner city parks and it opened in 1895 and was called Perth Park until 1901 when it was renamed Kings Park to honour the new King Edward V11.

Marri walk

We walked through the park to the Botanical Gardens which has and a great walkway with views of the Swan River.Also through the Memorial path, the Marri walk which has plaques with names of fallen soldiers from both World Wars.
It was a lovely sunny day after being rather cold in the morning hence the jeans which we were not used too.
The park also has 2 great areas for children which give a variety of different experiences.
