Holiday Time

While we jetted off to WA for the national orienteering champs, Indi travelled a shorter distance to start her holiday at the O'Dowd residence. 

Indi actually left a few days before us allowing time to settle into her new home with 3 other dogs - Leo, Cooper and Echo! It was the the two older black/whites against the two younger sillier brown/white dogs! From all accounts Indi had fun and the dogs got along well.

We are all super impressed to receive photo updates by Nadine and Sean who without blinking took all four dogs on holidays to Fingal Bay a 5.5hr drive north! Crazy....

For us we landed in Perth late afternoon with Grandad picking us up. Both the Grandies look in much better health than they were in January which was lovely to see. 

It was a quick change though before making our way to South Beach in time to meet up with Annwen, Ashley and Nathan plus Jan, Russell and Jessica as well as Cath, Eoin, Aoife and Carolyn for fish'n'chips. A beautiful warm clear evening but unfortunately the cooking of the takeaway took longer than expected and we mostly missed the sunset.

The next morning it was back to south beach for a refreshing swim followed by coffee again catching up with the Candy gang and their pooches Amy, Bailey and Muss (although I didn't get her photo.)

Andy spent the day at UWA working. Meanwhile I did a bit of last minute shopping with the girls before dropping them off at the airport to meet up with the rest of the ACT Schools Team.
