Tash and Todd on their way to a good friend's wedding in Busselton ....

....with their dear friend Amy...

A game of Uno before bed....whilst eating some yoghurt and blueberries...

...the boys love playing card and board games...

 

Flynn playing with his new mini-magnets at breakfast...

Will and Ethan playing chess whilst eating their delicious bacon and egg burgers....

After the boys went to school, Pete and I visited Eagle Bay where we managed to see a couple of whales...

......a lovely sunny morning but a cold south westerly breeze...

I love to see them enjoying a book together...

 

Balloons are always so much fun...Pete and I are down in Cowaramup for a few days...

Will with his broken arm...he still manages to have fun...

....they both love playing chess...

 

Monty keeping me company on my bed...I have the flu! Thankfully it is the end of our holiday and I have played all five golf courses and spent a lot of time with our family. 

 

Our last game on the sandbelt....at the magnificent Commonwealth Golf Club....a warm fire in the clubhouse was so welcoming....

...and a hot coffee was much enjoyed whilst staring out the dining room windows at the beautiful golf course....

Such a beautiful course....

Their practice putting greens were so fast but true...

A photo of the friendly Medway Golf Club members, Martine, Pania and Vanessa. I had played with Pania and Martine on other courses and pleased to play today with Vanessa.

The blue sky was much appreciated...

Tall elegant eucalyptus trees everywhere I looked...

And much to my surprise, I won a prize. I came second in the Ladies Scratch Stableford category. I had no idea what Scratch Stableford was but my playing partners explained it to me. 

And Vanessa came second in the Ladies Stableford category.....Pete was one shot off winning a prize and happy that he played well. It was a really delightful course to play and we were certainly happy to have the finer weather.

 

Stuart and Pete enjoying a coffee at the Metropolitan Golf Club....play was delayed for an hour due to rain...20ml of rain fell last night,,,

Another championship course with wide fairways...it was still drizzling when we hit our first ball...

...more bunkers....and they were so large....and wet...

....and worms!!!! extraordinary numbers of them on the fairways, I have never seen that before...

Absolutely stunning eucalypts line the fairways...

\

I played with so many friendly ladies...I played with Pania (in the photo) again today...we had played together at Kingston Heath

....and you got a free drop....outside the bunker...

It didn't rain for the final 9 holes thankfully...but there were still many puddles to avoid....

We think Corella's are loud in Perth....these sulphur crested cockatoos were frightfully loud...

Some colourful banksias on the course...

Pania took this photo of me in front of the Metropolitan Golf Clubhouse...

Again we were treated to a delicious lunch (with dessert!) after the game...it was an exhausting day, pulling a buggy and holding an umbrella ...trying to keep our lasers and phones dry....but we both had such fun and are thankful for the opportunity to play such a sensational golf course.

 

On our way to lunch with Jeremy....above is the "green tunnel" or " bright green caterpillar' structure in Melbourne....it is a striking 2.5 kilometre elevated cycling and walking veloway built above Footscray Road as part of the West Gate Tunnel  Project. It connects the Capital City Trail and Moonee Ponds Creek Trail to give riders  a safe, express path into the CBD.  

The Fitzroy Town Hall Hotel ....

Cold and raining outside but warm and cosy in the Fitzroy Town hall Hotel....had a fabulous lunch with  Jeremy.
