Swan valley

Im back again friends.

Ive had time for some quiet reflection. Just taking all of my trip so far(a quick 2 weeks) Between tasting a 1996 wine from the back of the truck and being escorted out of a club for falling asleep its been great. Ive been keeping the job search up and even after an unsuccessful job hunt in Swan valley Im still hopeful.

I had the honor and pleasure of spending the weekend with Duxxa and her wonderful family. They really made me feel at home and I had an amazing weekend with them. They are all generous and very kind. They have a beautiful home in Elenbrooke and I was welcomed with open arms.

We went wine tasting in one of the many vineyards out in Swan Valley. Tasted some delicious red wines. Moved swiftly on to a chocolate factory. Big ass bowls of free chocolate and some pretty cool gifts that Im sure never make it home because of their delicious chocolate nature. My sisters would have loved it! Chocolate up the walls! They had chocolate everything. who ever heard of chocolate massage oil......tasty night in ;)

Went to Trig beach early on sunday morning. Its one of perths many beaches. Got in for a swim and it was amazing. It was funny, everyone around me in the water had wet suits on. There I was in just my shorts out in the dead of Ozzy winter and loving it. The water was a good temp and the waves were strong. I got some queer looks off the locals out walking and even queerer looks off the surfers. I wish I had brought my surf gear with me on this trip but i think it would be too much to be lugging around with me.

Im slowly compiling a list of the things I forgot or should of brought.
