A VISIT TO PERTH

Well, we made it back safe sound it was quite a trip very enjoyable! A quick summary:

Sun 25th Sept: We fly out 8.30am Brisbane time and arrive at 11.45am Perth time. We spend the rest of the day catch up and squeezing to Adam and Clair's home.

Mon 26th Sept: We when down to the beach, just over the hill from the house, but didn't brave the waters as it was a little chill

Tues 27th Sept: The lads bravely offered to watch over the kids (i.e. play PS2) while the gals went shopping (groceries) and then off to the movies (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory)

Wed 28th Sept: We hired a car and headed off to the Perth Zoo. Boy oh Boy that zoo is big.

Thurs 29th Sept: We broke Adam and Clair bed (don't ask). Then head off to Lancilen, a small fishing village for the day. It was raining most of the time there, but it did clear up to allow the lads to do some sandboarding. Although Adam did managed to master the technique first, Dan took the honours of the longest ride (Adam for the hugest stack). The evening we visited the 'local' for tea (Yummy).

Fri 30th Sept: Fremantle! We lunch in a brewery (Little Creatures) and then hit the markets. The lads had the kids and lasted about 30 minutes in the markets and headed in the greater Fremantle for ice-cream and more interesting shops. The gals lasted 3 hours!

Sat 1st Oct: We returned the car and recovered from our travels (ie the gals slept and the lads played PS2).

The rest of the week till Thursday was of much the same order, mainly just bumming around with the Lads competing at every opportunity (basketball, tennis, PS2).

On Thurs 6th Oct, we headed out to Hillary's for lunch and then we flew home.

So it was an excellent holiday and one we'll definately do next year.

Hmmm. I don't think I've ever seen Ari look worried before.
But that's a worried look if ever I saw one...

You broke the bed? There's a detail I could have happily lived my entire life without knowing.
Did you like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory? Mmm, Johnny Depp...
