WAMBAM....when the midweek lady golfers at our club play the Saturday morning players. This is me with Robyn and Lee (my opponent) at the 11th hole. Mardi took the photo.

 

The winning team this year!

Barrack Street Perth ...waiting for the Giants...I had never seen so many people lining the street of Perth.

 

The Diver....

 

It was spectacular to see how the Lilliputians (red coats) jumped from the truck pulling the ropes to lift the Diver's feet and make him walk.

 

The Diver stopped and rested  and had a cool drink.

 

Tash and Pete....

 

The Diver having his afternoon nap... we had lunch at the Grovenor with Tash, Todd and Jeremy. What a fabulous morning ...The Giants were so amazing, so glad they came to Perth.

 

And as if the day hadn't already been wonderful enough, Pete and I went to see Mozart Dances at His Majesty's this evening, the Mark Morris Dance Group from the US dancing to Mozart piano and orchestral works. We both thought it excellent.

Tash, Nerida and I walked past this healthy herb garden in a bath tub on Beaufort Street after  our delicious lunch at Mary Street Cafe...following another exciting morning looking at wedding dresses.


 

Then...a fabulous afternoon following the Little Girl Giant around Perth. Here she is having her afternoon nap in Wellington Square.

 

Walking up Hill Street...

 

Preparing for her ride on a car roof ( right in front of where I was standing!)

 

Walking past the old Fire Station in Murray Street...across the road from the building where I work.


 

Walking down Murray Street and smiling at the crowds...

 

...with her helmut and goggles on , just before she hopped on her bicycle. Such an amazing site, I'm looking forward to seeing the Diver Giant tomorrow.

 

On the way to the train station I just had to take a photo of the colourful crowd in Forrest place...Friday night food markets.



 

Cloudy humid day at golf today, the lake was like a mirror....I had a lovely game with Marjolijn, Pauline and Jessie.

This weekend I am down in Bunbury to play in the Capel Ladies Summer Classic. This morning, Jane W, Jane E, Sue and I walked along the coast to a nearby restaurant for breakfast...on a near perfect morning.

 

....and after a rather disappointing but still enjoyable game of golf I walked down to the beach for a swim, just before sunset...
