So, we spent a couple of weeks in the lovely (ahem!) Rockingham while Matt did some work, and I had the lovely job of tidying, sorting and generally making the caravan a bit more user-friendly. We got rid of all the stuff we’ve quickly realised we don’t need to cart around with us, re-packed the storage unit, and I gave my car a bit of a runaround for a couple of weeks before putting her back into storage.
I’ll just run through a couple of the highlights here, and chuck a couple of pics up so as not to bore you with the whole story.
*Went to Jus and Kat’s for a BBQ/catchup/drinking session. I slept on the couch the whole next day, and I have very bad memories of some chilli sauce…
*Went to the driving range with Justin, could hardly move my arms for the next couple of days…
*Caught up with our WA family, the Reads. J
*Matt got his dreads done again. I surprised Bruce and Nikki that day while I was waiting for Matt by turning up at their place unannounced. J
*We had one super-hot Perth day, 37 degrees baby! Went swimming off the new jetty at Palm Beach and the water was freezing!
*We went to see Ash Grunwald again! This time we dragged Shersto and Woody (aka the uni students) with us, and it was bloody awesome. Ash puts on a damn good show, and since this one was a recording for a live album it was even betterer!
*Went to Steve and Anne’s for homemade wood-fired pizza. Soooooooooo good!
*Had lunch with Bruce in the city after discovering that the Peter Alexander city store has closed down… L
*Took Glen out for dinner at Istanbul in Freo. Yummy!!!
*Went shopping at Peter Alexander in Booragoon!!!!!!
*Out for dinner at Betty Blue, my favourite place on the foreshore at Rockingham.
*Went to Bruce and Nikki’s for dinner. Mmmmm mmmm!!
*Went to Dunc and Ken’s for lunch for six hours! Their baby, Dylan, is getting so big! Too cute!
*Went to Maxx’s 1st birthday party at Kylie and Stu’s for a couple of hours on our way to Busselton.
And I think that’s about it! So, that takes us up to leaving Rockingham (well, Palm Beach if you want to be precise!), and heading down to Bussleton…
