Pirates, Angels and Busking

We have had an amazing few days. Friday night we headed to Scarborough beach to watch Gilbert and Sullivan's HMS Pinafore. Was lovely sitting by the Sea and watching a performance. Plus it was interesting to see another beach here, the all seem a bit different. The sand was very powdering, and I was reminded of shots of beaches in Sydney, the water was churning a lot, and the coast was very bright and plain.


Saturday, we headed into Perth to see 'Place des Anges'. It was a very magical experience, with aerial performers as Angels, throwing feathers from up high onto the city. The feeling and experience reminded me of being in the snow in Glasgow, when we lived in Scotland. It was so much fun, and after the feathers finished falling, they put on some music and everyone got in and played with and threw feathers. Everyone was smiling and it was just a joyous experience.


Finally today we went out busking, with Gabriel all dressed up in a bow tie and red hat. He had so many photos taken of him, it was very funny. He asked, at one point, if he was being mistaken for someone famous! I explained to him, it was just he looked quite stylish, and people don't expect boys to be dressed like that. We also chatted to a man about repairing guitars- he was repairing his in Central Park, on Hay St, and he recommended a book on learning guitar to Gabriel, so we will have to look that up later.
