What could be better than spending a gorgeous day with friends? Lunch at a vegetarian Indian restaurant followed by a Ferris wheel ride with a panoramic view!
Indian food isn't my favorite but the view made it worthwhile.
The food was served as an all-you-can-eat buffet paid by donation.
These spectacular views are from the restaurant deck.
Didn't see any sharks but lots of boats.The Curious Case of Benjamin Button was originally on the agenda but somehow being cooped up in a movie theater on a relatively cool day wasn't appealing. Sorry Brad, you made a little less money this week! I was torn between a chocolate shop and exploring a market with Diana and Sue or riding the wheel with Shirley Kay and Lisa but decided to ride the wheel since George won't be up for it since he is afraid of heights.
The Ferris wheel towers over the Barrack Street Jetty.Options for the ride included sharing a car with six people to renting the VIP car with the glass floor. They also plan to add champagne (It's Australia! Who needs a reason to drink?) and a DVD player and TV. None of us could figure out who would want to pay for the view and watch TV instead. We shared our car with a couple from Manchester who were very interested to find Americans living here and joked we are back under the reign of the Queen.
Here are some of the photos of Perth from the air:

The Bell Tower still looks high from the top of the Ferris wheel.
The city scape is so gorgeous. I love all the open space in Perth.
The sky here is Colorado blue.
