Weekend away at Rottnest with the family 26th March 2011

What a weekend it was at Rottnest - the weather was just awesome and the company was awesome and we sat on the boat for most of the day on Saturday enjoying Thompson Bay North, having a couple drinks and nibbles and catching up on all the gossip. We went to the pub on the Saturday night and caught up with all the Pedley's - Stuart, Maureen, Matthew, Justine, Jennifer, Craig & Geoff. We did catch up with Jennifer, Craig, Geoffrey and Matt as we moored up near their boats.We also caught up with Roland & Sam and their kids. Then after the pub it was back to the boat for more drinks and lots of laughs and Tim and Geoff stayed up til 5am! Up at 8.30 and onto the mainland to th Dome for a big breakfast.
