"Crabfest" in Mandurah
Hi Everyone.
We had an excellent day out in Mandurah in last Sunday at the Crabfest which is a bit like the Christchurch Regatta. About 5 families all went and took different tucker and Dave took his 2 man Kayak. Sorry but no pics as we forgot the camera.
There were water skiing display teams and Power boat racing. Some were those really flat ones with the big outboards and some with those huge V8s in a boat the size of a 1 man dingy.
Made all the more exciting because 2 of them hit on the turn up by us (no one was hurt), and one of them was sinking rapidy as they towed it back.
Cheers

Night out at The Movies with a difference.
Hi All
Just thought we would let you know that we had a different experience last night. No nothing funny, we experienced our first outdoor cinema and it was fantastic with a couple of friends from work.
I spent a lot of the time just looking round and thinking what a beautiful place we were in.
Just to the left of the screen was the big Burswood Resort Hotel which is lit up all along one side with coloured lighting that gradually changes colour every few minutes. The sky was crystall clear and the stars were gleaming. I just sat there thinking wow this is amazing!
We took our big patio chairs as it was a double feature and we wanted to be comfortable (so it was handy aving the X-Trail). I could see a lot of jealousy as we set those babies down at the back of the field.
You can order pizzas when you get there that come from Eagle Boys,we were too late getting there to order so we had to settle for sausage sizzles (hot dogs to you Poms). There's other counters for drinks, ice creams and stuff at the back. The booze is really cheap as well, bottles of beer for only $2.50. We had a couple of bottles of Shiraz throughout the evening which was very nice (thanks for driving home Dave!).
By the way it was Finding Neverland first and then National Treasure, I nearly stayed awake until the end as well, will have to get the video out to watch the end.
Anyway it was a special evening and just thought we'd share it with you lot.
Gary, Angela and David.
