Six days since the past post ! What could have caused such a long break ?! Nothing much, just resting, recovering and catching up with what I'd missed while away from home... So:
Thursday, we drive home. Deb's sister leaves first, she has a family lunch at noon. First, though, there is time for a final café coffee. Thank you, Deb's sister :-)
Deb & I drive home via Capel, Boyanup and Dardanup. We like to avoid big towns; this way we avoid both Busselton and Bunbury. Nothing wrong with those two but the scenery is better off the main roads. For the same reason, we follow SW Hwy rather than the newer, shorter, faster Forrest Highway.
We are at Waroona by lunch-time so we eat at the Waroona Country Café. It's clean, it's neat, it loos as though it has been renewed in the last couple of years. I order a heat-and-eat croissant, very nice. Deb orders a toasted cheese sandwich, no worries says the manager... but it takes a long time. It needs to be made from scratch, the manager is by himself, there is a steady stream of customers. I try to eat inconspicuously while Deb is waiting...
No more stops, just an easy drive home. Where we arrive just after 2:30. pm.
The cat finally wakes up to say hello. I deal with emails (I check while we're away but leave most responses till we are home again). Deb checks the garden. All is well :-)

Friday: Shopping for supplies for the next week. Books from the library. Not much else.
Saturday: We go to the toy library but it is still closed for school holidays. While we are out we get coffee and cake; not at the first place we pass -- it is too crowded for us. The next place is just as crowded but there is easy parking out the back.
We rest for the rest of the day.

And I'll take a break just here. Call it the end of the holiday... a good holiday :-) The next couple of days are hectic, but not holiday. Not really "not dead yet" either. Too bad, it was fun so I'll post some detail anyway. Soon.
