The adventure begins

Buckle up for a short flight to Paris

Stop over at Charles de Gaul

before she knows it, Uni's in Mauritius

then straight to Perth, WA

Road trip to Margaret River

how much luggage does one unicorn need?

Arriving at our cottage

Uni didn't expect the jacuzzi!

A lovely hug from aunty Sarah

Uni's artistic skills at the Spaghetti Bowl

but unicorns don't eat pasta- silly us!

exploring in our very own tour bus

with our guide Robert- what a legend

they all had such beautiful grounds

growing grapes in straight lines

the sun always shines on their vines

The Chocolate Factory

and the Cheese Factory

Lunch by the river

On the journey back from Margaret River we stopped for lunch beside the river

It was such a relief to stretch our legs after several hours in the carTreated like a princess by the staff Uni got her very own stylish chair
Sarah and Olivia had trouble deciding what to eatUni's mind was made up- it would be mashed bananas

HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

UNI WAS SOOOOOO EXCITED BY ALL THE LOVELY PRESENTS

We had a delicious feast before heading to the beach

Posh Nosh at Hilary's Bay

We all went out for one last family meal before our flights tomorrow night.

Uni was being very well behaved sitting at the table in her own chair

Auntie Sarah bought her a blueberry cola

Supreme of chicken stuffed with mozarella and parma ham

The water in the bay was so still as we walked home

Uni's new friends

AFTER A LUCKY ESCAPE FROM AN OVER FRIENDLY CROC

UNI got to meet a whole bunch of new friendsBilly, the sea turtle, was very old and had lots of fascinating stories

Frank, the tiger shark, said being in this giant fish tank was like walking into the biggest pick'n'mix shop you could imagine. Delicious morcels all around- he had nothing but nice things to say of the businessman who tried to feed him mackerel whilst foolishly still attached to a piece of line with a big hook in it. Without said businessman he'd still be fending for himself ou tin the oceans- he's so very grateful.

Glenn, the Mantra Ray, had better things to do than chat- he was busy scaring all the little children, but he did say that his cousin, Shane, was in Melbourne and that we should visit him if we got the chance.

This here is TASCO- their resident male sea lion
He's extremely friendly and very talented. Loves to jump through hoops, do handstands, pushups and have his belly tickled by the handlers. All in all its like a holiday camp for him as they keep throwing fish in the air for him to eat.

Freemantle market

Billingsgate eat your heart out.

Freemantle Harbour

Traditionally a small fishing harbour

The quayside is stunning!
If ever you visit Perth you must find this anchor
Then have dinner by the water and watch the sun go down

A special twilight cruise

AHOY there ! Uni carefully guided us out of the harbourMother was suitably dressed in matching mauve

ISLAND HOPPING !

UNI very wisely saved her weary paws in the queue at the airport

Bienvenue aux Isle Maurice

Here is the very kind lady who has let us visit this beautiful island
MERCI BEAUCOUP AISHA

Nous aimons du pizza

Like a good little unicorn, she ate all her dinner up

And the waiter let her keep the bandanna

D'evolution

Its a jungle out there

The sugar cane grows to 15 feet,
perfect for a game of hide and seek

L'Aventure de Sucre: Welcome

What a delightful factory to work in

Uni was kindly invited in to the governor's office
