We all had a blast, even though it was only for 7 days. The first day we were there Curt and I went out with Drew on his sail boat and went racing. It was the first time I have ever been on a sail boat and I had fun. We ended up taking 1st so that made it even better!
The next day we all walked down to the beach and just hung out for a bit. We had to get back at a decent hour so we could have Thanksgiving Dinner. Kim's been doing Thanksgiving Dinner for the past three years and it was fun to be a part of it.
Every Sunday, Kim and Drew's girls go down to Surf Club and they learn about the waves, surfing, and saving lives. It was fun to go down and watch them. After Surf Club we all piled into the car and drove up to some sand dunes and went riding in this BIG monster truck and then went sand surfing. 
The next day we got on a Ferry Boat and went out to Rottnest Island for three days. It was nice and relaxing but you can only spend so much time on a small island where the only way you can get around is to walk or ride a bike! We went snorkeling, site seeing, and hung out with the Quokkas.
The day after we got back we went to the Perth Mint and watched them make a gold brick! Then we went to the Wildlife Refuge and were able to pet Kangaroos, Pandas, and a Wombat! How many times can you say you've pet a Kangaroo?! It was also my birthday so Kim was sweet enough to buy me a birthday cake that was absolutely delicious!!! That night we went to a restaurant that is owned by Kim and Drew's neighbor. At the end of dinner they brought out a BIG bowl of ice cream with a sparkler in it. 
The whole vacation and birthday was perfect!
