Write note 12/30/2009 Liz and Bruce posted a note for Liz and Bruce Genuine Travel Bugs Western Australia   Visit Log
The fifth day after Christmas and the New Year beckons with hope that it will bring happiness and fulfilment of plans made and yet to be made. We wish you and those close to you all the very best for 2010.

One of our pre Christmas highlights was on the 23rd December when we decided to head into Perth via the rail system. The trains are clean, quiet and fast. We predominantly went in to get some caches centred in the city area. We had some success but then found ourselves still in town around 6pm. It was then we noticed 3 camels in the main square of down town Perth. It was obvious some event was to be staged so after seeking information we decided to get a seat and watch a re-enactment of the nativity scene. It went for one hour and was a wonderful performance with beautiful lighting and singing, Mary arriving on a real donkey and the 3 wise men on the camels. There were also sheep, goats and chickens in the stable. Well done to the Perth City Council for staging this event.

Christmas was a very nice day for us thanks to friends Les and Judith and their family who welcomed us into their fold with warmth, cheer and lots of lovely food. Bruce made sure he tried each of the different desserts on offer. It was interesting for us to get to know Les and Judith’s children who were very young when they had left Woomera and to see how they have grown and developed and also to meet up with Jill (Judith’s mother) who I had worked with about 32 years ago when I had first arrived in Woomera.

Our life in Safety Bay, house-sitting for Val and Shack (the friends we met at Cape Range, Ningaloo Reef), is good. The caravan is located down the side of their house behind a fence so we have privacy and security. We are alongside their outdoor area and can use the seating there which gives us more space than we are used to. There is a bore sprinkler system, which makes watering the front and back garden very easy. About once a week we do some gardening, either raking leaves or trimming back plants. We have 6 pots with tomatoes, capsicum and herbs and we water then daily. So you see we can cope with normal routine. We are about 2kms from the beach and often go there to watch the kite surfers or just to check on how the sea is looking. Swimming, I have to admit has been done in the more temperate water temperatures of the pool at Les and Judith’s home. With plenty of shops around the Safety Bay area we have plenty of choice but the Rockingham Shopping Centre has everything we need so we tend to head there.

We have spent time redoing all the bearings on the caravan and installing new brake pads on the wheel we had the problem with. It has not been straightforward and Bruce had to modify the shoes so they would not scrape on the drum. We had to send the hub back to get different wheel studs, as the ones they provided were imperial and not metric like the Toyota. As we all know, life was not meant to be easy, hopefully when we take the caravan for a long run everything will be in order.

We have our flights booked to Adelaide prior to Easter and then have a road trip planned to Wagga Wagga for the mega event. Hopefully we will see some of you there and we are certainly looking forward to that. It should be a great 4 days.

Enjoy your New Year’s Eve celebration, stay safe and of course happy geocaching.

I never logged Liz and Bruce last time we met, so I thought I had better do it quick this time before I forget. It's been great to catch up with you both again. Enjoy the rest of your travels in the south west.
