A few years ago we started going to Mandurah in December to see the Christmas lights as the locals make a huge effort and it is quite a show with a very special atmosphere.
We usually hire a house on the canals and often have curious visitors who come to say hello.
The canals offer nice views – in daylight
or at night.
Mandurah itself offers some pretty sights
and so do the estuary and Murray River.
Port Bouvard reminds us of Italy somewhat.
