Day 75 Friday 26 th August    A big Surprise

We left our overnight camp around 10 am which is pretty late for us but I had been dragging my heels on purpose. Rob said he didn’t notice any difference. What he didn’t know was that Jasmine was flying in from Adelaide in the morning to spend a few days over the weekend to help celebrate his 60th birthday. Heather and Paul (who were already in Perth) were in on this and were very helpful, picking Jasmine up from a central bus stop after she had caught a couple of buses from the airport. We arrived at our caravan park in Freemantle and Rob went into the office to book in as he has been doing. He has done this so I can save my hip a bit but this time I wanted to go in but then thought he might suspect something. When he walked into the office he was a bit confused. He saw the very large sliver balloon display with 60 on them but failed to notice his daughter standing next to them. Jas had to jump up and down and wave before Rob realised. Anyway it was a lovely surprise. We put our annex up and Jas will sleep in there till  she flies home on Monday. After this Rob drove us into the main part of Freemantle and I had my hair done while Rob and Jas had some lunch and did some shopping. Unfortunately once we got back to the caravans the weather took a turn for the worst with a strong wind whipping up and heavy rains but we were all warm and good. Poor Rob...things got worse when we all sat done to watch the football and his beloved Crows went down to the Eagles in a game that they were expected to win. Oh well I'm sure things will improve over the weekend.
