Oz2010 – Thu 7th January
After spending the last 4 days at the beach, today was very much another lazy day. The morning was spent actively engaged in the exciting pursuit of washing clothes…
To make the afternoon a little more interesting, we decided to head out and catch another movie and to grab a meal out sometime in the evening.
The movie of choice this evening was Old Dogs; starring Robin Williams and John Travolta. Ok – perhaps it did’t sound the most exciting of movies but, nevertheless, we bought the tickets and decided to give it a viewing. And do you know what? I’m glad we did give it a chance because I haven’t laughed so hard in quite some time.
I won’t give away the plot and funny moments of the movie (although the plot is far from groundbreaking…) but there were a few moments that had not just Lyn and I in tears with laughter, but pretty much the whole movie theatre.
I think it was an hour and a half well spent and the movie proved to be better than I imagined it to be.
I don’t really have much more to say… we ended the evening enjoying a couple of pizzas at a nearby pizzeria before catching the last bus home to Wanneroo. I never thought I’d be saying this out here in Oz… but it was very cold whilst we waited for the bus home tonight…

Brilliant film really enjoyed as wasnt really expecting it to be that good. Pizza was lovely too and some local yobs put on a show for us as well with a little fight outside the cinema. Thankfully the security guards were all on hand and soon had it all under control.
Sure was cold waiting for the bus in the evening amazing how the temp can drop just a few degrees and you really feel it.. it was at that point I thought I’m not looking forward to returning to the Welsh weather!!
