We have fallen way behind in our blogging but will endeavour to get things in order....soon.
Well earned R&R was had in Perth by some travel weary Cafferys. There was no better place than at Brian and Pen's. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality, food, wine and laughs (just like old times). They were also excellent tour guides to King's Park, Hillary's and the Swan Valley. The Swan Valley was every bit as good, if not better then the Margaret River. A particular favourite was Sitella.

The Patrol needed some pampering too. A Patrol is for life, not just for Christmas, so it got its well earned R&R also.
Day trip to Rotto - enjoyable but perhaps not living up to the hype. Still, some excellent beaches and the kid's enjoyed hiring bikes and ruling the road. The historical settlement town is much improved with the availability of Subway and Red Roster for lunch.

A very pleasant sunny autumn day was spent wandering Freo, which culminated in the afternoon at Little Creatures. We all loved the aquariums at Cicerello's and watching the huge ocean liners cruising into Fremantle harbour.
The kids were not brave enough to swim at Cottesloe after seeing the results of a great white Vs surf ski encounter also on display at Cicerello's. Mum and Dad were made of sterner stuff.
