28 February - Day 18



We had a great Saturday night! We went to the Floating Cinema which is part of the Perth Arts Festival and watched Asterix & Obelix. The cinema was set up on the Swan River and we watched from the beach with a picnic.

This is a picture of my husband's famous Lamb Tagine. It's a holiday weekend in Perth so we're going to try the same recipe using Venison Shanks!

I'm fortunate to work in a beautiful city. The ConocoPhillips office building is located in West Perth which is a nice, quiet suburb with plenty of cafes!

25 February - Day 15


This picture was taken at The Quarry Ampitheatre in City Beach, Perth.
Surrounded by bushland and previously a limestone quarry, this venue now holds band, jazz and ballet performances. My husband and I went last year to a jazz concert and ended up booking the band, Hip Mo'Toast for our wedding!

24 February - Day 14


Fremantle, Western Australia.
Fremantle is located 20 minutes from Perth and is a beautiful area. My husband and I, along with 2 of our closest friends went to Fremantle (or Freo as it's more commonly known to the locals)for a weekend getaway last year. This was the view from our room!

23 February - Day 13


This picture was taken on my birthday last year when my husband took me to the Perth Zoo. It was the first and only time that I've seen a koala bear. Most people (outside of Australia) think they are very common in Australia but it's rare to see one in the wild.

Meelup Beach, WA.
We stopped at Meelup Beach near Dunsborough on our way home. My Husband enjoyed a nice snorkel while I watched from the beach.
