We headed over to Rottnest to watch the Grand Final and on the way over we were blessed to see some whale action - one jumped right out of the water - it was really a great sight.
Well we spent the AFL Grand Final at Rottnest this year with Blair & Chris and watched the game at Blair's sisters place - they live over there and her fiance is one of the Rangers. Geelong came home winners over Collingwood so that was a good result. We had dinner on the boat and then the kids stayed to watch a movie and we all went to The Gov's Bar where we caught up again with Blairs sister and had a few drinks watching a great couple of guys playing accoustic guitars and really great singers. Stayed there til the end and then headed back to the bay and on the way we stumble across a group of youngs lads which one of them had had a bike incident where his front tyre had come off his bike and he had kissed the ground with his nose and mouth. Lots of blood and his friends where using there phones to to light up the ground looking for his teeth!!! WTF We suggested they take him to the nurses post for treatment. Then headed down to the beach to get our tender to go back to the boats. Well no tended in sight - not good - so we were scanning the area and couldnt find it and went down the end of the jetty in front of the pub and a guy appeared on his dingy towing ours - not sure how this happened he was quite drunk to give us a real explanation but he said it had floated over there but the guys on his boat were having a real giggle so we thought there was more to it. I was just happy to have the boat back so that we could get out to our boat and drop Blair and Chris off. The next morning we went and had brekkie at the dome and then headed home about 11.00am. On the way home we had the joy of seeing the whales again - spouting and breaching so lucky we are.Had really awesome weather and Thomson bay was like a mill pond - bloody beautiful!!!
