, we reunited in Perth. Al Pal made the short trip across Australia for 2 weeks of adventuring, reminiscing, mankini-ing and schooping.First off, we caught up with ClaireBear and Raymon in Perth. Great to see our buddies on the other side of the world for a quick round of SupaGolf and a proper Aussie BBQ (shrimp, Alf and Ailsa, the whole lot).
On Sunday night, after 24hours travelling, JD and Oisin arrived in Perth keen on some sleep... (loosely translated as "schhooooop"). We went straight to the Bottle-o 
and stocked up for the next few days on the bus. Having drank our way through that supply, we tucked into the Duty Free the lads had brought over and started bellyflops into the pool. This was a precedent that would serve us very well for the next 2 weeks.

This was a precedent that would serve us very well for the next 2 weeks.Our bus trip took us 3,500km along the west coast, stopping at beautiful beaches, gorges, off-shore reef, pie shops and more bottle shops. The opportunities for swimming in mankinis were unfortunately very common. Our fantastic driver Peter was the epitomy of the Western Australian character ("alright you mob, where are those 5 IRA bastards?")!
After another Raymon BBQ on our return to Perth, we headed south to the beach in Mandurah and vineyard in Margaret River. More of the same over-indulgence left us needing a holiday after our holiday. To top it off, we came back to Fremantle for "one good lash at it". The local economy has been boosted by our liquid intake and we were happy to help in our own special way. Great couple of weeks with na buachailli. See you in Dublin in 6 weeks! Photos are here.
