Calamvale Walkies

She loved her walk to the park & we or should I say Brian gave her a good run or did she give him a good run - LOL 

Calamvale 4

Jedda follows Brian where ever he goes, however if I walk outside or past her she doesn't bother
but if Brian moves her eyes are on him. She is a beautiful dog (Neapolitan Mastiff)

The grounds here are very beautiful with some gorgeous plants & hanging pots, there is even a
lovely pink Sasanqua Camelia growning happily in a pot. Will take a photo when the flower is out.

Heading to Calamvale

Sunday August 31st:

Well our day had arrived as we were to farewell Terry & Patricia at the van park as we headed toward our next house sit down at Brisbane South - Calamvale. Sunday August 31st dawned fine & sunny as we needed to pack up the last remaining gear, we certainly did not want rain as we had to store it all away inside the van while it is at the storage area at Woorim for 2wks. We farewelled the Moyse Kampong around 1030 & headed to the storage compound while we are at Calamvale. We had a great drive down to Brisbane & being a Sunday the traffic was also in our favour, most traffic was heading north. We arrived at the property around 1230pm & were gladly greeted by the big woofa - Jedda.

Letting ourselves into the property we duly went to the back slider where Brian very cunningly had some doggie treats in his hand which Jedda smelt with great enthusiasm & scoffed them down in no time at all - with the greeting over we proceeded to empty the car & settle in for our stay. The house is a nice colonial style home in a very affluent area,there is a nice covered outdoor area and gardens, lots of room to sit in the sun & enjoy the birds singing in the aviary.The home-ownerr is a breeder of Gouldian Finches, they are very colourful birds & currently there are babies in boxes & alot of eggs still to hatch along with some Quail due to hatch also.

9 Holes Caddy

Wednesday the 13th August was a lovely day & Brian suggested he would go to the Golf Course and play 9 holes. Terry was going to go with him but they had friends from NZ - Governor's Bay actually

Zephyr Tce (small world eh) therefore he could not go. I suggested to Brian that I come & caddy for him. He promptly said ok - we headed off to the course around 2.00pm and there was no one there, it was a great day weather perfect, & no wind. Brian worked it out that we walked almost 4kms - great exercise & our legs let us know that evening that they were tired, we slept like babies.

Beach Stroll

We are very close to the beach here at Worrim, and as there had been rough seas we decided to head off for a walk. You can see how the tide has made a bit of a drop off from the high tides.
