today's outing
Today we are flying to Sydney for the weekend to watch Grant sail in the 18fts on the harbour - last 2 races.. I think the break will do us good - means we simply can't work overt he weekend and we will be back Sunday night to pack up for Melbourne on Monday. Here is a pic of SLAM - we will be taking our camera of course.
Here are 2 pics of the Ficifolia Eucalyptus on our verge, This tree is native to Western Australia and you never know what colour flowers it will have. In our last house we had a coral one on the verge. I love this one - it is just coming into full flower.
See you on Monday - no check in luggage which means I have to decant my shampoo etc.... and no scissors can I take. I will have to find my thread cutter.

Hi! Dale,
Hope Ian enjoyed his special day yesterday.
We holidyed a few years back when our daughter lived in Perth and were amazed at the beatiful gums you have that we can't grow in our colder climate,
Have a wonderful trip!
Just getting wonderful rain as i write this.
Enjoy the break, it will do you both good.
Thankyou for your good wishes - no I don't have a parrot but could borrow one of my daughter's budgies! As long as I don't come home with a pegleg I'll be alright! Have a great weekend - Good luck to Grant and those Ficifolia Eucalyptus blossoms are just gorgeous. Thanks for sharing them with us, Heather.
