A Dream of Perth

What countries do you want to visit?

This is a promise, I had made to my wife rather a dream, before we were married. Till date it has not been fulfilled.

After we married we travelled to many other countries, but I still tease her about Perth.

A Silver wedding has gone by, where we chose to tour Spain and Portugal.

Now I hope before Silver turns to Gold we can visit Gold Coast.

Its Gold beaches stretch a long way. Besides the name being attractive it seems a famous tourist spot.

But what about Perth ?

To match that, in the ensuing years, we had the birth of 4 lovely children who have now grown and have families of their own .

We are now in Glasgow, and can visit London and Dubai, thanks to our children.

So whatabout Perth ?

I just checked to see its attractions. There are beautiful natural parks, wild Dolphins and reefs off the coast. Then wineries and restaurants with gourmet food, and cultural events.

Frankly, I did not know much about Perth until now, when I read a little about it.

I thought of Perth, when planning for our honeymoon only as a wild thought as I teased my beloved, knowing at that point of time it was beyond our means.

Eventually where was our honeymoon?

It was in Mussorie; which is a beautiful hill station in India.
