Today the Princess had an adventure. I left home in the morning, wearing my favourite poodle shirt and caught a bus to meet Clara in Belmont. The weather was lovely, although the sun was hot there was a nice cool breeze 
In Belmont we went to the bank to send our money to BABY:heart: I hope they ship our order soon, I’m so excited about it! I shall finally have some winter clothes.
After this I went to the Belmont Library, which has lovely gardens and fountains, to pick up a copy of “The Queen of Diamonds” by Jean Plaidy (Its about the Affair of the Necklace) I took a nice stroll in the park. As I was passing by one of the small lakes I saw a group of three swans swimming around the fountain! Now west australian swans are special because they are all black, my city is one of the few places in the world you will find them. As I approached, one of the swans broke away from the group and came to greet me. She came right to the edge of the pond and I had to resist the urge to reach out and stroke her shiny black feathers. I did take some nice photos of her though, there are more in my gallery:sparkle:
I then made the long journey up to the Hills where my parents live. I had tea and fruit scones with my mother 
and played with the neighbour’s gorgeous Cocker Spaniel and then had a delicious dinner at my Father’s where the prince joined me. My Father also gave me some camera advice which should help my photos turn out less blurry 
How lovely! Unfortunately, the only black birds around here we have are Ravens, who while suitably gothic, aren’t very elegant.
