Went up for a couple days to Christine's parents place with her in Geraldton (4hrs north) to get away for couple days.They've got 8 horses here. They used to have a farm but just sold a few months back but kept the horses.
Also have 3 dogs and 2 cats, all very friendly.
That's Christine on left brushing a horse and her friend on the left.
Me riding my trusty steed for a walk, I believe his name was Black Betty
Christine took a photo of myself and her friend Kara during the ride

Here are some views of the apartment, mostly for my parents cause they are curious of how I'm living, it's a nice place., 3 bedrooms but we keep one as spare for more room.

Here is the kitchenBy the doorway inside, a big cabinet is actually going on that wall later today that Matt is bringing up from a house down south.
The entertainment unit, that's actually my small tv that will go back in my room soon but there while big 110cm one is in the shop, the picture got all blurry on it, should be back in a few days.
The couches, dining room (getting bigger table today too from south) and kitchen is just around the corner to the left there. Those are the nice wooden blinds that Matt got installed just couple weeks ago, more elegant than plastic.
My bathroom, he's got his own in the ensuite of his room so cool the we have our own but not that big a hype as a girl would make on having her own bathroom, we men don't need alot.
The washer and dryer and the door to the clothesline out back
The extra room which is has a cot as extra bed and Matt's computer which we rarely use.
The hallway, goes from left extra room, toilet, laundry, bathroom, my room. (the living room and Matt's is behind me in photo)
The bed plus dresser in my room (Matt's left it there for me since he didn't need in the new room, made my life alot simpler)
The other side of my room with closet and window. I put the tv in front of the window later, would be better hanging on wall but too big for that. The 69cm is kinda big for bedroom but oh well, it's nice and big cause had froim living room of old place.

Having a few drinks as you can see on a nice sunny afternoon with my Perth family and friends at The Shed in Northbridge. (That's Sara at the end, Hollee and Teele's older sister)Here is Hollee later trying to play some pool.

My roommate Matt's 27th birthday passed and we had one hell of a sunday out.
First he rented a limo for an hour to get us to The Cott for Sunday Sessions (basically day at bar to relax with mates and live band playing). The limo was pimped out with 10 of us and we had like 5 bottles of champagne to get us going. So here are some of the better photos I took during the day.

Here's the inside of the limo: Kim, Adam and MattThe glamorous girls: Fisher, Claire (Matt's little sister) and Kim
This is the crew that took the limo ride, the driver took a photo for us in Fremantle at the lighthouse.

Its been awhile since my last post so here's some of the stuff I've been up to for the past few weeks.

Went to watch my best friend Hollee play some field hockey for her Uni team (they just call it hockey but I can't since that's ice hockey for me, wono't ever change)
Then I we went to watch an ice hockey game. Yes they have a league over here in Perth. Nothing too special but was great to watch a gmae again. I might even play myself next year, the level isn't that high and found out there are a few fellow canadians playing. Kinda ironic that it was also July 1st, Canada Day so made it that much better.
Hollee and Christine wore all the warm clothes they could find in the car since they thought it was freezing over there, well it should be just a few degrees over zero for the ice. Of course I was kinda stupid and had shorts and sandals on since it was hot for the field hockey game earlier so my toes were pretty cold.

We then went back to my place where I cooked dinner, yes I'm actually getting better in the kitchen people, it was some pork cooked in apple juice with cooked vegetables and seasons potato wedges, mmmm.
