we have the Swan Bells Tower in perth, one of the largest musical instruments on earth, housing the twelve bells of Saint Martin in the Fields church, the parish church of Buckingham Palace.

Recorded as being in existence from before the 14th century, they have rung out to celebrate England's victory over the Spanish Armada in 1588, the homecoming of Captain James Cook after his voyage of discovery in 1771 and the World War II victory at El Alamein. The bells have also rung in the New Year at Trafalgar Square for more than 275 years, and have celebrated the coronation of every British monarch since King George II in 1727. Children sing of the bells in the popular "Oranges and Lemons" nursery rhyme, "You owe me five farthings say the bells of St Martin's".

got all this from a website, only been there once myself...


oh and rottnest island, it's like a holiday spot for West Aussie's like myself only 30mins offshore...

oh and the margret river wine region.... some of the best wines in australia :)

My home Province of Alberta is renowned for Grade "A" Alberta Beef, the Rockies, is the 'only' debt free Povince and/or State in North America, the Calgary Stampede, Tricia Helfer - "Number 6 on Battlestar Gallactica", fishing, cancer research, and that Russell "The Idiot" Crowe is banned for life from 'every' bar in the Town of Canmore - for his obnoxious, unruly attitude during the filming of 'Mystery, Alaska'.

Plus, we are very friendly!
