Fremantle

I'm trying out a new cafe in Fremantle, called Elske. It's all nice and new and clean and tidy… but so far it seems a bit too cavernous and loud for me. I'm sure they'll figure out the furnishing; it must be hard leasing a massive empty room like this and trying to turn it in to a good place to hang out. This was the temporary post office (after the old one got its roof blown in) and so maybe I'm just relating it to that still. The coffee is pretty good.
I've been out taking some photos for the July challenge on Wikimedia Commons: manholes (I'm not sure how the usually non-gendered-language wiki world is handling the naming of that). There are a bunch of late 19th century J. & E. Ledger cast iron manholes around Fremantle, so I got some pics of the ones on William, Short, and Phillimore Streets.
