Last Saturday, I took Robyn out for a birthday lunch and it was a bit of a bust, so Monday was our 'Take Two' lunch. Robyn suggested we try the 'Sticky Fig' when I told her that I had been there for morning tea and it was really nice. She and I met our friend, Jan, there and we had a really lovely time chatting together and a really delicious meal there, as well - they also made a yummy iced chocolate.

On Tuesday, we went to Bundy (a 90 minute drive from HB) because our camping trailer needed its one year maintenance service. Dad had a number of items for them to check out as well as the basic service, so it took all day. While we were waiting for the service to be completed, we spent the morning shopping at various places and then met up with my uncle Ray (Poppy's youngest brother) and his wife, Julie, at a local club. We had a lovely two hour lunch catching up with each other - we haven't seen them in a number of years.
On Thursday, we flew to Perth - we will be here for eight weeks, seven of which Dad will be teaching for - one of the weeks, we will be going on holidays as that is when Dad's friend, Garth, will be instructing the class in the avionics, navigation and communication portion of the course. We are thinking of driving south to an area called Margaret River as we have been told that it's a really beautiful place to visit.
Friday, we went to our friends' place for dinner - Thea and Martin lived in HB for three years before returning to Perth - it was so nice to get together with them. After a delicious dinner and conversation, we played a number of games of cards which was fun.
Yesterday, Dad and I spent a couple of hours geocaching - I wasn't thrilled with our 'find' percentage - we were only able to find two out of four caches. However, even though we were not very successful, the day was warm, the sky was blue and it was fabulous to be outside.
