Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you.
Happy birthday dear Kath
Happy birthday to you
Kath’s birthday – “Oh my” what a day!
On our way through to Perth we called in at the Gravity
Discovery Centre; a working observatory combined with a large interactive
learning centre on gravity and cosmology. Fascinating, but it did my head in –
sound waves, light waves, black holes, gravity - all heady stuff. The climb up
the leaning tower to drop water bombs was cool – 180 tonnes of steel, 222
steps, 45 meters high, 15 degrees of inclination – and the 360 degree view from
the top was pretty spectacular too. On to Perth, hired a car then proceeded to
drop the campervans back off 2 blocks away. Do we blame the Navman or the
Navigator? The map shows 167km from Lancelin to Perth plus a little bit to the
Discovery Centre but we ended up doing 187km for the day. Now, I ask you, do
you really think it takes 1 ½ hours to drive 2 blocks? The short answer is yes,
it can do! Finally after much stress, one lead vehicle and two following vehicles,
through traffic lights, intersections, motorways, side streets all without
losing one another we made it – late, but we made it. A grand total of 7,252km.
We drove across Perth to the northern suburb of Scarborough to The Rendezvous
Hotel on the waterfront. A palatial place, in the middle of renovations, where we
were lucky enough to get a renovated room with views north up the coast and its
own private little balcony. Across the street, we found a lovely restaurant for
the double celebration of Kath’s birthday, where Russ presented her with a
gorgeous pearl necklace inspirationally designed on the Staircase to the Moon
theme, and the successful completion of the 4 wheeling part of our holiday. After
dinner, it was back to our exquisitely comfortable rooms for a blissful night’s
sleep.
