Spent the day in Fremantle (affectionately known as Freo) just down the Swan River from Perth.
Like many other sites in Australia there is a monument to the Anzacs who fought in WWI.

The Fremantle Prison operated from the 1850s until 1991. It was a horrible place. Toilets and running water to the cells were not installed until the 1980s!! Yup, they used buckets.
The Fremantle Markets Building dates back to 1897. Very European in feel. Lots of produce but also crafts and art. I now own a stunning Australian opal.
As part of the Fremantle Featival which begins on Saturday, Swiss artist Felice Varini brought his internationally-renowned “optical illusion” art to High Street. Yellow designs on buildings and the street stretch for 800 meters. (p.s. it does come off)
