From Bubby's Camera

Thursday morning Johanna and I took a ride on the train into Perth to find the Quilt show. We spent several hours looking at all the crafts, quilts and needlework sewn by the ladies of Western Australia. One quilt in particular was really spectacular.



This quilt looked almost like a tapestry it was so detailed and closely sewn. I believe it was a grand prize winner.

On our way home we took the bus because it would pass by the grocery store and we wanted to buy some special Greek yoghurt (Australian spelling) for the fellas. We then went to another store to get food for our supper. All in all we had a delightful time riding the local transit and shopping in Perth and Fremantle.



This is our hosts, the Davises. We are having a wonderful visiting with them.



We paused at Smith Beach for this photo. It was a great spot with weathered granites overlain by limestone. The granite is older than 3.5 billion years old. Whatever was originally on top of it is long gone due to erosion.



This is the bakery we were looking for when we stumbled onto the kangaroos. They use a wood-fired oven and bake naturally, what ever that is. It was quite an efficient operation and it was in the middle of nowhere.


Bubby wanted me to include this photo of the two of us. It was taken at Smith Beach, near Yallingup, Southern Ocean, Western Australia.



On Sunday, Bubby and I were under the weather. Somewhere in our travels, we got a bug of some kind. We laid low most of the day, but we did go for high tea with Larry and Johanna at 2:00 PM. The tea was lovely, but unfortunately we really could not enjoy it. We were just not up to eating much. We did have a wonderful herbal chai tea, and it was delightful. Thanks for Larry and Johanna for this nice treat.

When we got home, I headed up to bed, never to emerge again until the next morning. Bubby has pretty much recovered. I am still only about 70%, but I am sure I will feel better in a day or two.
