DAY 8 - CITY OF LIGHTS BY BIKE


John Glen the 1st American in to orbit the earth referred to Perth as the “city of lights” as he flown over it in 1962 as all the residents left on their lights to show him the city! – The name has stuck today and even though there are many brighter bigger skylines around the world, Perth has one of the nicest skylines at night. Today I bought myself a new bike and went for night ride along the bike paths by the Swan river with stunning views of the city. I expect many more stunning bikeride views over the coming few months and hopefully a shrinking waistline to go along with it!
