#2431 Thursday 30th October

Halloween time ... at Sassy dance they had a party and Kaylia dressed up.  

                                  She was very excited by it all.



          







She won a prize for dress up.


 ..... and in the middle of the day she had a session with the exercise physiologist.  I was listening from round the corner and it was clear that she was really enjoying the session!

 As usual, Kaylia is loving the twice per week dance sessions at "Sassy Dance"  She goes in the mornings of Monday and Thursday .... the organisers post video and photos on Facebook after each session so you can find these if you're interested.

Phew.... we're home.  Naomi drove all the way.... I was non compus with flu symptoms.... aches and pains, stuffed head, mentally defective.....  all due to lack of the normal medication I think.

Happy birthday to Naomi!  One of Kaylia's quirks is that whenever someone has a birthday, she must have a present too..... so she had a dingle dangle.

Now (at 10am) the round of op shops has begun.  For Kaylia the visits a quick..... pick 5 dvds and then out.  Then Kaylia and I wait in the car while Naomi has a serious clothes shopping session.

Kaylia's had a very good morning at the op shops..... some of the dvds were quite special..... a boxed set of all the "Braby Einstein" dvds! It's now 11.30am and she is in her room going through her treasures.  She is crooning away and having a great time.  She's very easy to look after.

Naomi has had a good time with her handbags and clothing. 
(I don't get anything.... I'm the driver.)

This is the engine bay with new radiator, water pump and hoses. I've added a filling cap at the highest point to aid bleeding the system.

Day 1.... A leasurely drive with a stop in Williams.  We've arrived at the kojonup caravan park. 
It's a neat, basic place.... it has a beaut community kitchen.  Kaylia's settled in and very enthusiastic. The weather is mild. The scenery is excellent. 

DISASTER..... I forgot to pack medicines for me and for Kaylia.  I can probably cope without mine for a few days but I will need to get our pharmacist in Perth to authorize a 3 day stopgap for Kaylia.

Naomi saw this..... I'm looking forward to the time when we can have another daxxie.
We head south on Wednesday.... a few days in Albany.  There are 10 op shops in Albany so we can do 3 or 4 per day! 

.... and I saw this the other day..... 
I had one of these from 1985 to 1997. I was given it as a non runner..... used it unrestored till about 1990 when I restored it to look just like this.   Then I foolishly sold it.
