I'm back.....

feeling super refreshed from my break over in Perth with my daughter.  I was so happy to see her and spend time with her.  We had such a great time.  The three of us went traveling down south of Perth to the Margaret River area for 6 days of sun, fun and wine -
oh and a visit to the Margaret River Chocolate Factory - totally awesome!

 We did some exciting things too.... a walk along the 2km Bussellton Jetty,

a trip into the Lake Cave (350 stairs down and 350 stairs up!)

walks over rocky outcrops to visit a natural spa and to watch some amazing surfing

a couple of swims in the Indian Ocean....

 Redgate Beach

Yallingup Beach

We did heaps more too... I'll show some more photos during the week.

Arrived back at Auckland airport at around 10.30pm Saturday night..... sans Peter's suitcase...  It was still flying over the Tasman Sea.... somehow didn't make our flight.  Came in later that night and arrived by courier at 9.30am the next morning.... so it was back to work this morning :-(  ~ managed the full day and then picked up new printer (old one died on me yesterday - hence no Mygrafico card tonight) and then the cat.  He had been at the Cattery for the two and a bit weeks... first time on holiday for him too... It was a little wary coming home but seems to have settled now.

Saw some exciting news on FB tonight, ~ my Kissing card (here) won over on the Lily Pad blog.... how exciting is that.... so $25US to spend at Simon Says.... what fun.  I did sneak in a wee trip to Stamp-It shop in Perth and got some Stamp-It stamps... one set and two singles plus a Bo-Bunny set.   

Well that's me for tonight.  I hope you enjoyed this little slice of my holiday.
