Some photos that I took at Brighton Beach at sunset this evening.

Well, I had an interesting day today. I helped our Chinese student, Si, with her mice down at the Animal house. The last time I did animal work was thirty-five years ago.

The work today involved cutting their tail a little, then measuring their glucose level from the blood from the tail, one mouse every minute for two hours!

They are quite cute little things.

There are not many people around  this early in the morning, only the garbage truck. 

The last day of autumn and  a walk down town to the library...this is the new Como, The Treasury Hotel, which is just stunning inside. 

Only three of us this morning at the beach, Mandy, Pauline and myself. Although it was sunny, there was quite a strong chilly sea breeze blowing so very few people were about. Between Floreat and City we enjoyed watching this lone kite surfer, surfing in towards the beach and then out to sea. When he finally came all the way in to the sand, I realised it was Phil Ellis from our golf club... I was so impressed, he looked awesome!

" Mandy's Birthday "

To celebrate Mandy's birthday, Tash and Todd invited us all over for dinner, and what a delicious dinner it was. We had such a nice evening.

I went for a walk with Tash and Rusty this afternoon, here he is learning to cross the road. He truly is becoming very obedient (very well trained by his determined owners!).

Tash and Todd are very lucky to live quite near this beautiful parkland full of pine trees , so much for a dog to sniff around here!

And we ran into another vizla and her owner.....
