Day 83. Perth

Hop on in...

Well no lovely sleep in today, they girls were all up and running around at 6am!!! I was wishing I had gone to bed before 11 last night. Bummer!

After a quick breaky we went for a walk up to the local park, but unfortunately the camera's SD card was left in the computer so no photo's Arghhhhh.. We'll take them there again for sure, as there are lots of great dinosaur statues, Scarlett loved it.

Scarlett and "Waggs"

Robyn, Marty and the girls had a birthday party to go to today,and they asked Scarlett if she would like to go with them. There was no asking her twice, she had a party dress on and was in the car in about 5 seconds. Shane and I then took off to buy a new fridge for the back of the car, as our Engel is just too unreliable to take up north.

We went into the camping shop and picked out a fridge/freezer combo, we haggled $130 off the price and were out of there in about 10min flat. Next was Supercheep (20% off today) to get some diesel engine oil, an oil filter and diesel fuel additive to take with us. Shane is going to attempt to do his own oil change, good luck babe!

Into Bunnings next, sausage sandwich on way in, free Easter egg at checkout and free hot cross bun on way out. Thank you very much! Last and worst of all was the Rockingham Shopping Mall where we had to grab some grog and last minute provisions, OMG this place was even more insane than the last mall I visited. Once upon a time I loved going to the mall, now I dread it.

When we got home and Robyn and the rest of the circus arrived, we decide to give the guys a break and take the girls to the movies to see "Hop", and they really enjoyed it. Scarlett was up dancing at the end, it was such a great sound track and a fitting movie for the day before Easter. On the way home we called into the local showground to check out the local Easter show. The girls were really disappointed as we decided $9 was too expensive for any rides. The kids were heartbroken as they left without going on anything.

I cooked 'butter chicken' tonight and it seemed to go down really well. The kids had home made pizza and we sat outside in the great weather while enjoying a few drinks and laughs. We are so lucky to have such great friends, but it makes me miss all mine back home even more.

Goodnight!
