Dr T rented us a villa for a week. Nice holiday resort. Villa with bedroom including Jacuzzi and shower for us and 2 bedrooms with bathroom for the kids. Happy with it. But, horribly expensive, certainly last minute in the holiday period:

We immediately have a duck as pet! The food choice for the first evening is spaghetti. We play a card game, which name cannot be used. Whoever looses gets a tea towel on his/her head and is the name which shall not be used.
The next day we go to Busselton Archery. The Tomcat wins, I loose. Then, hours in the swimming pool.  After dinner, we play dare: you get dared to do things. I loosed again, if I remember correctly.
The jetty is for the next day: this is a wooden pier, going kilometers in the sea (the longest in the southern hemisphere).

There is a play garden connected to it. When we come home, mum and dad already arrived and we play the game whose name shall not be used all together.
This is the winery and sweet day. We start there:

The Tomcat and I really like Vasse Felix red wines:

There are dozens of wineries in the area. Everywhere you can taste for free without buying obligation. Remember Girls???
 
The sweets are the ice factory:

And candy factory:

In the evening, Dad brought a special hat for the game!
 
When mum and dad leave, the next day, we go to the beach. Would you believe I even swim? In winter?
 
The next day, it was bye bye to Busselton for us too.  After dropping off the kids, we went back to mum and dad. OK, after having mosseltjes in de Belgian café in Perth.
