Day 22 - Fremantle (1st December 2010)

"Through the early hours, Dawn Princess will set South-Easterly courses along Direction Bank. We will then leave Rottnest Island to starboard and approach Freemantle from the North West. Our local pilot will be boarded at the gage roads pilot station and from there we will proceed into the inner harbour leaving North Mole to port. Once inside, the ship will be swung round using the ships thrusters and berth port side along the Victoria Quay Passenger Terminal."

















Back to my Telstra internet connection and doing my End of Month this morning, I disembarked only after lunch.  They were refuelling along the ship and doing some tender exercises, similar to my power boat license, picking up imaginary men overboard.






I took the train to Perth, but did not succeed to have some pictures printed on the day, like in Darwin. "No, I cannot come back tomorrow!"

I then had a little walk through Fremantle and really liked the "Little Creatures" micro-brewery that reminded me of similar places in Germany.

Back on the ship early as I was feeling too cold, I was very happy to be invited by our Hotel General Manager, Riccardo Zorzin, for dinner at La Scala Pizzeria and last drink at Jammers Disco.
