what's going on everybody this is Jeff with islandhoppper TV and today I'm coming to you from
Earth this is Perth Australia the most isolated place on earth we are right now in the downtown
city centre it's actually not too crowded down here one of the things that you'll like about
Perth is that it's a really modern city but you don't ever feel like you're being smothered by
shoulder-to-shoulder people first thing you'll notice is it's just like the American city
just like I mean everything you wouldn't even know you're outside of the United States we got
here say hello let's see here's some Krispy Kreme all right so here we are a street and
Williams Street this is kind of like the the core of it all lots of restaurants and
boutiques whatnot it's actually the Australia Day today yeah this is a place to come if you
want to get some shopping done or you're in my shoes and you need to replenish your
sock collection or get some toothpaste come on down here little old town area
okay and this area here is known as Elizabeth Kay also known as couldn´t Elizabeth this is
kind of like the main promenade last time I was down here a lot of this was still
under construction so it'd be interesting to see how much growth they've completed
let's see here
here is Elizabeth Kay in [Music] the city center of Perth this is the Swan River
so there's the perth bell tower you can hear it [Music]
his jellyfish and your burden miss him
Sara here is called the island Elizabeth
I'll invert house maybe the time you get up here live music 36
coffee
so here is the bridge
so after a heck of a hike up here this trail that
I don't think is the preferred method I've made it Kings Park these hills
this is one of the places you'll want to come for us leisurely stroll the Sun
sets over there so maybe you come up here first sunset well this grass right here is
a short of the pudding room in membranes of the men of the state who at the call
of duty gave their lives for freedom of humanity the Great War 1914 to 1918 is
world war one world war two memorial and the one in the distance is World War one
here's the botanical garden
this is all in preparation for the Australia Day fireworks show
Jacob's Ladder right here you ready let's go for it
Jacob's Ladder
that is ouch
all the way up to Kings
so this area here is called Fremantle this is one of the more popular areas around Perth with
the tourists because it's coastal now you can get a ferry over to Rottnest Island or any of
the other islands and there are some beaches very close to Fremantle so being that Perth is
8 miles inland up the Swan River this is where a lot of tourists go to be coastal
and it's actually a little bit cooler though the cooler and a little less humid based on
what I feel right now it could be that I'm standing in the shade but overall I'd say
so here we are down at the eschaton in Fremantle we're gonna take a little walk around here down
on the waterfront get some live music going on over there you're gonna have some fireworks later
this is Joe's fish Shack not to be confused with Joe's Crab Shack I'd imagine I don't know either
[Music] and I fish they got in there shirk well you know how Australia is the shortest
[Music]
let's see is this gonna be a beach up here
Beach
I got a Ford over there [Music]
[Music] we're going out there
last time I was here I saw lightning striking over
there beautiful clear blue sky okay so no matter where you go
[Music]
water look at this this one here they're gonna make them each right north and south
Fremantle all like this this long strands of beaches the only reason you'd want to
go further away from Fremantle itself is because of the you know the eyesore
that is the Fremantle port but the further north you go the more beautiful it gets you
can see people out there on their kite surfing and whatnot let's go down there
very windy down here
[Music] [Music]
[Music]
[Applause] you
