Parks are proving to be a bit of a sanctuary for us and fortunately Perth is laden with plenty of big beautiful green spaces. We spent the majority of today in the great outdoors and for once I’ve come back with money in my purse and two tired, contented kids.
First stop was McCauley Reserve in Inglewood where we met a fellow mum photographer and a lovely Irish nan whose grandchildren played beautifully with the mini Greens for a couple of hours. Next was Hamer Park - just round the corner from Green HQ - where we hooked up with fellow Mount Lawley mums and their kids. They were a nice bunch and the Finster slotted in just fine…though I did notice his suggestion to play ‘proper soccer’ was dutifully and patriotically ignored in favour of Aussie rules. In any case, he came away with a smile on his face, despite being called a dork by a younger kid in his class, and subjected (quite willingly, I’m sure) to lots of conversations about bums and farts. Great stuff.
Until tomorrow….
