Weekend away

We spent this past whole weekend away in Perth. As no one was in town we had to put Lucy and Bella into boarding kennels. We decided to take them to Perth and use kennels there to save rushing back to get them. Here they are having a much hated bath the day before we went.

We took Dad up with us as well. It was a long slow trip as there was an accident near Myalup so we had to backtrack to Bunbury and go up through Harvey. It was nice to go through the different towns. We dropped the dogs off and then took Dad to Steven and Kyms where he stayed. We then went over to Trinity to see Janelle. We went to an undergraduates welcoming tour and speech at UWA. Janelle and Sarah caught the bus into the city and did some shopping. We then headed up to see the Brooks family for dinner and celebrate Simone's birthday. We spent the night at the motel section of Trinity.

Janelle and Sarah had a game of tennis after breakfast while Peter and I went for a stroll down by the water and through the gardens of UWA. This time we found this great outdoor theatre.

We then headed over to the airport to pick up Nicole who had flown back from a great week in Broome. She did all the tourist things like camel riding on cable beach, visiting the crocodile and pearl farms and sunning herself on the beach. They also managed to celebrate Danika's 21st.

From the airport we went up to Guildford Grammar School where we met Dad to attend the Freemason Lodge Scholarship Presentation Afternoon. It was a nice ceremony and Janelle was presented with her cheque for $700. We then enjoyed a nice afternoon tea.

Then it was back to Trinity to take Janelle back and for the first time in a very long time we had our 3 girls riding in the car with us which was just wonderful!

We left Janelle and went over to Canningvale to pick up our 2 very excited little dogs and got back to Bunbury safe and sound around 8.30. A busy but enjoyable weekend.
