Hello 2019

Hello there,

Do hope you all had a lovely Christmas and a good start to the new year. Chris and I enjoyed bringing in 2019 in Perth. We had a week in the Advent Park, about 15 minutes from perth so were able to visit relatives, catch up with friends and do a bit of sightseeing, including a lovely day in Fremantle. It’s busy, but a beautiful place to spend some time, especially on a summer’s day. The harbour was alive with boats.

 

We also had some meals out and probably a few too many ice creams.!

            And have I mentioned shopping !?  DFO was a good place for Chris to sit on a seat and rest, while I checked the place out . Great way to end the day.                                                                                         The next day we went for a drive out to Mundaring Weir.Rather hot on that day, but still walked around and  climbed a number of stairs, so got my exercise for the day.

Happy to have good tv reception in the park and the Hopman cup tennis was on in Perth, the ladies camped next to us were catching a bus in each day. As we became more friendly with them and discussing the play of the day, naturally the conversation turned to how much I like watching Roger Federer play. Not only was I able to watch him win the Cup, live on tv, but the mother *89* and daughter from next to us, brought me home souvenir flags from the event. How thoughtful was that ?, we meet so many lovely people as we travel around.

We ended up staying an extra night at Advent park before leaving to go on our way down to Gracetown. to have a week with Bec, Steve and the 2 grandchildren, Rosie and Creed.
