I played with Will today whilst Tash took Rusty to the vet. It is getting difficult to take a photo of him now as he is constantly on the move.

Michelle kindly lent her car to  Pete and I today. We visited some of my old schools and houses that I had lived in. Above is St Cecelia's, my primary school.


The nun's convent next to the primary school.


The back of the convent, the old stairs I used to walk up to my piano lessons.


What was once our little shop in Butterfield Street, Herston. Now a trendy coffee shop which sadly was shut.



Our shop in Kennedy Tce Red Hill, is now a hair salon.


Walter Taylor  Bridge in Indooroopilly....  I travelled over this bridge on the train to school.


Graceville Avenue, Graceville....the last house that we lived in before coming to Perth.


Another place we used to visit a lot when we were children was Nudgee Beach...in Moreton Bay Marine Park.



Soldier crabs...


Had a lovely walk...



Also walked through the Boondall Wetlands.
