Camping again...

Last weekend we went camping with Corinne and her family. Willem and Frank get on well with her daughters and Ed, her husband is also very nice.
We went to the Collie River about 2 and a half hours south east from here. A beautiful place. It was really relaxing and there were some lovely breweries too! Here are some photos. We also saw a possum!!!

Concerts

Hello hello
Finally some time to post again. November has been a month of many concerts.
It started with James Morrisson and Deni Hines in The Quarry. He's a famous Aussie Jazz Trumpet Player and the Quarry is a wonderful venue 10 minutes from our house. You bring your own drink and pic nic and sit under the stars overlooking the city lights. I went there with a bunch of girlfriends and had a great night




Then it was Portishead in the Swan Valley at the Belvoir amphitheatre. Also a fantastic venue. It was a nice evening with Jamie, some of his colleagues and 2 friends of mine. Just didn't like the band so much as they didn't interact with the audience..

19th of November I went to Band of Horses and Kings of Leon with Elleke and Katja (and their partners). Two bands I really wanted to see and thet did not dissappoint. It was also great to be in a stadium again.

And a week later I was back in the same stadium for one of the best concerts I've ever been to, with Jamie. It was totally full and the Foofighters played with so much enthusiam and energy! Dave Grohl was funny and the drummer, Taylor Hawkins,  was amazing. They played all my favourite songs and gave 7 encores!



Next week we'll go the the Quarry again to see Ross Wilson, an old Aussie Rocker and we've got many concerts lined up like Seasick Steve, Icehouse and Lenny Karvitz. Just heard Duran Duran are coming as well to a lovely winery...

It's so easy in Perth.. never too far away and almost always great weather!
