Wife wants a holiday - Perth or Hong Kong ?
Thinking of some time in August.
I have never been to Perth before although I lose count of the number of trips I have made to Melbourne. Some say it is nice for a slow break. Some say there is nothing there. August is what - spring time ?
Hong Kong - not my idea of a holiday place but with 2 young kids, maybe a nice hotel + Ocean Park (dolphin show and all) + great shopping for the missus.
What do you think ?

I'm in Perth, it's a nice relaxing place
depends what your interests are, theres a few things to do here.
You might just miss some of the cold weather if you came in August..
If you come to Perth, I would suggest a few places south of Perth - Margaret River, etc are very nice.

Cafe Manager: Free lunch? Did you read the fine print stating it was an April Fool's joke.
Patron: I read the same way I listen, I ignore the parts I don't agree with. I'm suing you for false advertising.
Cafe Owner: Is our lawyer still working pro bono?

LOL .. sounds like someone who likes it quiet in Perth.
I've never heard anyone say anything bad about Perth.
I'm jealous, I wanna go too ;-)

Perths nice. Not sure if they still have the skimpy baremaids on Thursday and Friday nights (skimpy=hardly any cloths).
Personally I would recommend Hobart.

You wont be sorry. Perth is beautiful, and Margaret River (and surrounding areas) are well worth a visit.

Perth's nice and beautiful, but for Asian people it's way too boring. But anyways, it's a place you must visit

Its way to boring, yet still a place you must visit?
Do you visit boring places often?
