About 40 minutes from home is the main water-supply dam to Perth, called the Serpentine Dam, presumably due to it's shape when viewed from the air.
A view from the "Cafe on the Dam" outside eating area. The Ring-Neck's here are VERY tame, readily sitting on your shoulder to eat. |
Karin and the kids waiting for me at the foot of the stair, with the pump-house in the background. |
Karin, the dam road and spillway at right. |
A look down the spillway, as it was blasted through the hill. |
