I was so pleased not to have to drive all the way from Perth this morning before my game...it was only a ten minute drive from Dani and Adrienne's home. The course looked fabulous...view from the 10th tee.


Lisa D in black is our Captain, Joanne, Jieun with the funny hat, Joanna and Anne...waiting to tee off.


Kristen and Lisa...


Terrific fairways...my ball just kept rolling...


Plenty of kangaroos...I won my game, played against a delightful lady from Nedlands. The team won also.

....such a pretty room...I loved the quilt cover and pillow cases...and the very comfortable bed.

In all the years I have been playing golf I can't remember it being this foggy.


...the putting green....looking east towards the 18th fairway...


Teeing off the first hole...we couldn't see the group in front of us let alone the green.


Jenny walking down the first fairway...


Looking towards the second fairway...


...such stillness...


Jenny  on the second fairway..  the fog seemed to be getting worse...


....but it cleared by the sixth hole....quite an interesting morning....

Floreat Beach this morning...Pauline, Margot and I were so surprised to see so much seaweed and erosion of the sand ....it has all happened so quickly...


Luckily City Beach was looking the same, no seaweed at all ...


...but lovely big waves...and hardly any people.
