The rest of the week was pretty much the same as last week with me knitting, reading, watching tv, and exercising and Dad going to 'school'. Dad had another test on Friday and he got 100% again - he wasn't as excited about the mark this time, though, as 6 other guys also got 100%.
Yesterday, we went out to lunch with Harry (Dad's boss) - he chose to go to a pub where we had a delicious lunch. I had chicken parma (parmigiana) and Dad and Harry had ribs. The ribs were so tender - just fell off the bone - but, no-one liked the barbecue sauce - it tasted nothing like the yummy bbq sauce we get in Canada. I think we are going to have to teach these Aussies how to make good barbecue sauce. :-) We rarely see ribs on a menu here, though, so that's why Dad chose to get it. After lunch, Harry took us on a short drive to an area not far from where we live. We took a short walk in a park and along the river.

Today, after church, Dad and I went for a walk - it turned out to be an 8km walk. It was such a beautiful day today - the sun was shining, the sky was blue and there was a light breeze blowing. The walking trail we went on goes through two parks and over two bridges. There were tons of people on the trail we walked along - some walking, some running, some riding bikes, some skating. There were also lots of people having picnic lunches along the way. Dad and I were good and tired when we got back, but it was a good 'good and tired'. :-)
