Out and About: City of Joondalup




Joondalup is the northern western most city in Perth. We went up there for Merenia's horse riding lessons and thanks to the tax man also had a great day out.

 

While Mira's was riding we were swimming.

 

There were some cool rusty tools at the horse riding place- unfortunately for me I didn't have the right lens on my camera because I was planning on photos like these....






Once we had picked her up we went and had lunch.... which is a whole other post! After lunch we went to Wanneroo Botanical Mini Golf. Tama and I explored while everyone else played- it's a very pretty place and a great time was had by all!



  


From there we went via Joondalup to do a quick job for Les to Hillary's Boat Harbour. We were planning on checking out the Marine Centre there but the little boys had gone to sleep so I sat in the car with them and Les took the big kids for Frozen Yoghurt.

Once T & W woke up we hit the beach at the boat harbour- it's totally enclosed so very calm and not as wind effected as the regular beaches.















 

The little boys had a fabulous time especially Will as it's not too deep.
 Merenia swam out to the pontoon.

 
And Kieran meditated on the rocks. :-) A water nymph he is not.

By the time we were done swimming it was time for dinner... once again another post. 
And afterwards we were just in time to watch a better than average sunset from start to finish.
It was a fantastic day and we thank the ATO for the refund that allowed us to enjoy it!
