... and a week in Perth

[jeanniebayb]

A couple of hours after landing in Perth, we had a dinner engagement at Miss Maud's - an all-you-can-eat smorgasbord, which was a great place to have a variety of western-style food that we missed in Japan. And as mentioned before, we had lots of Chinese and Malaysian food when we met up with friends and family. We went to Billy Lee and Hawker's

Good lord. I've only ever heard about Honey, never actually seen any photos. Two gorgeous daughters - I feel really sorry for your dad. He must have had to earn a degree in jodo to fight off potential suitors for his two daughters all the time.

Sounds like you had a great time in Perth, and I'm looking forward to your restaurant reviews - it's been a long, long time...

Haha thanks *blush* Growing up I was often considered (not just by me) the one least blessed with good looks amongst my sisters. I think that's still the case since I don't fuss about my appearance as much as my sisters do.

That's the first I've heard of jodo. You obviously know a lot more about Japanese culture than I do, eventhough I'm the one in Japan.. :)

I know lots and lots from anime, so generally useless stuff in terms of academics but useful in terms of real life application. And jodo does come up a fair bit in anime... it also helps when some of your friends compete in it.

I keep hearing that about you and Honey, but you know what, I dunno if that's the case. It's like looking at two diamonds that are two different colours - both are beautiful, just in different ways... and I never met Honey, but I really hope that they didn't break the mould when they made you - I can only hope that I'm as lucky as Rob in the future :)
