Me getting reading to sand board!
Today we did a 4x4 sand dune tour.  It was amazing.  It was a long 2 1/2 hour ride to the sand dunes. As we headed out of Fremantle the houses started to get nicer, then bigger.  It was a beautiful ride! And it was well worth it. We stopped for a potty break and he had to let most of the air out of the tires!  We had 100 pressure and had to go down to 40~! First we just started going around the perimeter then he got us on the top of the sand dunes and down we went.  It was so great.  Glad lunch was after this.  I felt like my stomach just went out. He kept going up and down and there was a tv on the bus so you could see when we were getting to the top and everyone was screaming.  It was a lot of fun! Then we went to the top of one and he took out the sand boards.  He waxed them up and down we went!  My picture as I was getting ready is on top unfortunately, Bill was laughing so hard he didn't get a picture of me coming down the hill!

After we had a nice lunch of bbq shrimp, and kielbasi, then lamb chop, steak and sausage with the strangest Casesar salad I have ever seen.  It had cooked potatoes, cooked eggs and bacon in it.  plus a tossed salad, we went to the National Park.  Unfortunately it was hot so the kangaroo were hiding but we did see a few Koala.

Then we headed back.  Our driver took us to Perth which was a lovely city.  And so different from Fremantle.  We drove back along the waterfront and it was truly lovely.  We got back and had just enough time to shower and change for our World Cruise Pan Am Mania event.
It is not letting me pull up the pictures so they will have to wait until tomorrow.
But I just want to say it was a fabulous event and James Coughlin, Shore Excursion Manager was the host of our table and  we just love James he is so sweet.  He is also very good to me explaining what I should do and what tours I should try to stay away from.  So Until tomorrow it is 11:10pm Saturday night here so I am going to get ready for bed.
I have Olympics at 9am:
I can't believe that we left home 1 month ago today it seems like we have only been gone a couple of weeks.
This so far has truly been a remarkable trip and look forward to more good thing to come.  We are truly blessed to be able to do this.
Good night and God Bless!!!!!!!
