Last official walk for 2013

Peter and I have had a few walks since I recorded the last official walks. As the weather has become warmer we haven't completed all the bush walks in the guide boof we have been following.

Last Saturday November 9th we had our last walk around Bibra Lake. It is a really nice walk of 6kms. There is a good path that varies from being shaded to being in the open sun. As the day was intended to be hot, it was a good thing we commenced walking by 7:15pm. It took one hour to complete the walk which was spot on to our estimate of walking at 6 km per hour. I also wore my backpack to help prepare myself for a couple treks later this year and early next year. We are vey fortunate in Perth that we have a number of recreation sites with good facilities.

We were disappointed that our breakfast location was to be at Point Walter, a lovely site by the river!a great location to finish the year off. We left in disgust due to the bad service. We waited 5 minutes to be seated, and then after 10 minutes we still hadn't been asked what we wanted for breakfast. We feel the shortage of staffing is because they take advantage of the location and think customers will put up with the ordinary service. We ended up with an adequate breakfast at the Dome Coffee Cafe in Ardross. No pictures as I didn't have my camera with me.
