From here to there and back..



This was the only glimpse of blue sky we saw on Thursday last week as we crossed the Matagarup Bridge from the Perth Stadium to Claisebrook Cove in East Perth. It's easier to park at the stadium than it is in East Perth plus it's a pretty walk across the bridge and alongside the Swan River. Looking back I had to use my semi-fisheye lens to get both the stadium and the bridge into the frame, not sure what happened to the colour!


No one is tucking this bench under their arm and taking it home :)


The view into the cove from the 💓lock bridge mentioned a few posts back..


Such a pretty walk down into the area surrounding Claisebrook Cove.. would look even prettier on a sunny day I'm sure..


Lunch and coffee at The Partisan, gorgeous pics on their website, sunshine and blue skies really do make everything look better :) before heading back the way we came and home. Hope you are enjoying your weekend, happy Sunday, take care and stay safe..

  3. I'd heard about the bridge and the new stadium when both were spoken of in glowing terms by Jon Agnew on the radio cricket commentary. Nice to see what it looks like.

  4. Your first bridge shot with the blue sky is a beaut, Grace! I like the look of the stroll and the walkway you see from the lock bridge too!
    It is still cloudy and damp here!

  16. Grace, you can always make me laugh! I went on their website to find this: "Wine & beer list 7 AM – Late.
    7 AM?!!!! OK, maybe I have to consider those who do night shifts, but still. Freaky idea.
    The bench is as great as the bridge :-)
