I'm so thrilled to have him home and absolutely delighted to meet Michelle.

Tonight we celebrated (belatedly) Pete's 60th birthday...Chris and Michelle arrived in Perth this afternoon for a long weekend in Perth. I think everyone enjoyed the dinner, we certainly had enough food and conversation.

Michelle and Chris, looking very healthy and happy.

Todd and Tash...

Jeremy and Mandy

It is always a thrill when your handicap drops after a good game...

Jo took this delightful photo of Tash and Harriet and posted it on instagram...I think she captured the moment beautifully.

Another beautiful day in Mandurah....Pete and I went for another long walk after breakfast before it became too hot.

Town Beach....in front of the resort...

On our way back to Perth we travelled up the old coast road rather than the freeway. We hadn't been on this road in years so we noticed quite a few changes. Above and below are shots taken at Coogee Beach which is becoming a very popular spot. Not only is the beach beautiful and the water very clear, it is also the first metropolitan beach to be netted.

Our view from our table at breakfast this morning...

After a swim and a lie by the pool we went for a long walk...

Peter picked me up from work today and we drove straight down to Mandurah for a couple of nights rest and relaxation. We are staying at the Seashells Resort, which is always a delightful place to stay. Before dinner we went for a long walk along the beach, these seagulls were diving for fish. There were so many of them.
