Some Nice Times

We had some nice times , On Saturday night we were invited to dinner with Viv & Mick and Gordon & Jenny Mahr and went to Araluen, a resort golfcourse in the Perth Hills and we had a wonderful dinner. The presentation of the food was superb and the food tasted wonderful as well.Plenty of kangaroos on the golfcourse. Took pics on the way home but was too dark. Thanks Viv & Mick.
Yesterday went to say Goodbye to the QE 2 . She was on her last voyage to Australia and after returning to the US will be sailed to Dubai in about November to be used as a floating hotel.
Went into town to get some lunch and found a couple next to us could not get drinks because they only had American dollars so we bought them a drink. We ended up taking them for a drive along the Swan river,through Perth and back. Sarah and Charles enjoyed it very much and so did we.

The yellow and blue ship is the something or other Voyager which has recently returned from the Antarctic, gathering evidence for a possible legal challenge i n the International Court against the Japanese Whalers. Hope the Government goes through with that and hope they are succesful in their bid.
