Day 12 Christie Lake Cottage

Christine came over to meet us at Sally’s on Monday morning and we followed her over to the cottage. What a wonderful, magical place to be! The cottage is literally situated on the edge of Christie Lake, a natural body of water situated just outside of Perth.

Christine cooked us a wonderful tea of chicken kebabs on the bbq, served with fresh corn on the cob - picked that morning. The difference with the sweet corn from what we have at home was considerable!! Huge great big cobs with a lovely deep yellow colour.

After dinner Christine took us out on the lake - Christine took out her paddle board and David and I shared the canoe - we didn’t do too badly considering we’ve only ever rowed as individuals before and David being left handed and me being right handed made for some interesting manoeuvres!!

Christine left after our trip on the lake – David and I were so shattered after the fresh air we crashed early and had a great night, falling asleep to the sound of the cicadas in the trees around the cottage.Läs mer
