Echo63 Posted October 2, 2015 Share #1  Posted October 2, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) I am very fortunate to live in Perth, and even more fortunate to have an amazing job, that allows me to travel around the city, and just walk around, when its not busy. recently i spent a few hours, over the course of a week wandering around Kings Park while the wildflowers are in bloom.  it was great to wander and just clear my head, slow down and just admire the beauty of nature - even if the chirping of my phone dragged me back to the real world on a few occasions.  anyway, on to the pictures that resulted (i don't know what the flowers are, in the main wildflower area they are signposted, but i parked the car away from the touristy bit where they aren't marked)  Welcome, dear visitor!
