First Dates

 Monday Grace & Pat picked us up here at the Caravan Park - 5 years had passed since we last met and it felt like just yesterday - apart from a new haircut, LOL!


They took us to Hillarys, one of my fav spots! One of! There are sooooo many great places here! And birds!

And nearly BIG drama right away!
The wind wanted to steal my (formerly) red hat I wear in Perth since 2013!!!!
 

 As I  type this the Magpies are loudly chasing each other, soooo cute!


We had a leisurley walk around....


A fun walk!

 
School just starts again here .
School.... my thoughts on this just got confirmed by fK who has twins in there.
In Germany you still learn but nonsense! Hope here it is better. Learned school uniforms (which we do not have in Germany) include socks and shoes!
 
 Ahhhh....  the views!
 


We had a nice (iced) coffee and the first Grill'd, YUM!

Yesterday we met up with Sami after her workday.


 



Fun times!

Soon we're off to domestic airport and via QANTAS to meet  River and then back via Indian Pacific. Likely offline as the route is through the Outback.

Your hat is very faded. I hope you can find a new one while you are in Australia.

It looks so warm. I went to the beach today too but I needed my winter hat, mittens, a scarf and my winter cook. Have fun!

How great that you got together with Grace and then with Sami too. I really miss seeing Grace's posts.
Have a great train ride, Iris.

It sounds like such a fun day! I'm glad you rescued your hat -- and I'd love to see those birds.

If you're going to have a coffee it's got to be good. As for school uniforms I'm happy I don't have to buy those anymore, they are really expensive here.
