Swan River Boat Trip - Happy Birthday Mandy!!

Last night we went out for a 3 hour boat cruise on the Swan River to celebrate Mandy's XXth birthday. The weather forecast did not look so good, but it turned out to be a very nice,  calm evening on the water. Ate too much though...., eisch!

Dankie Mandy en Beat, dit wat baie lekker julle!

The Paddle Boat Steamer (yes, it runs on steam), called the "P.S. DECOY", ready for us to board her in South Perth.
The fore-deck looking back towards the jetty/pier.

Chillax time...




About 40 minutes into the cruise, with the music just starting and everyone well fed :-)
This is the well sheltered aft-deck.

Die Boksom Bende...


Buddies :-)  :-)

The afore-mentioned steam engine (now diesel powered).
Also, it was beautifully warm in here, but apparently in summer this space is deserted...

On our way back to the pier, with the bridge over the Narrows just ahead.
Back safe-and-sound, and spot-on 9pm.
