Hahaha it’s funny how I see this view almost every day and take it for granted. Welcome to Perth. 😃
Don’t get too used to our weather, it might make you cross when you get back to Melbourne.
Try also not to think about how that train is doing the equivalent of Southern Cross to Geelong in a similar time for $5.

It’s $5.30 to Geelong , it’s $5.30 to anywhere in Victoria

  It’s also $5 for my tram ride with a whole 2 stops outside the free tram zone

  Ooh! That’s new (and awesome). It wasn’t when I left Melbourne. In fairness, it wasn’t $5 to Mandurah (where Spud’s train is going) when I left Melbourne, either.

    yup, the max daily fare is $10.60
    
    and it’s created a housing boom in the satellite cities as commuting by train has become affordable
    
    there is pretty much no affordable housing anywhere on a train line now 😐
