Another Successful Mystery Tour on a beautiful Spring Day 

We couldn’t have asked for a better day to set out in our cars, directions in hand for the navigators and another one for the designated scribe in the back seat trying to fill in all the answers in their neatest hand writing.

Unlike the two occasions when Jenny and I were preparing the route and questions, in pouring rain with limited visibility, on Thursday 11th September; the day of the tour, the sun was shining, the birds were singing, the instructions were clear and the “answers” were easy to identify – at least for most of the participants! 

This year, the route was through the new northern suburbs, following the coast along to Golden Bay, then a cruise through the newly established suburbs in Baldivis. The final destination was King Rd Brewery where all enjoyed a lovely meal and a drink or two.

It was a day when everyone was a winner. The focus was not on being first or the quickest - but the car that had covered the course in the least number of kilometres with the most correct answers, which was Team Jenny, Rob, Fran & Garry. Two teams this year really deserve a special mention because they only had two participants, which meant the navigator had to also write down the answers. Team Rob & Heather and Team Dot and Sandy are to be commended for getting to the final destination with low kilometres, in good time and mostly correct answers.

New members, Denise, Bob and Sue proved to be the team to watch in 2026. In addition to scoring well in all three categories and submitting two separate answer sheets (with different answers!) they demonstrated a commendable commitment to our Mandurah Perl Probus club by participating in two Club activities on the same day. 

Many thanks to all participants for their enthusiastic participation - especially to Team Paganini & Frank who didn’t let a major flood in their son’s home stop them for joining the rest of us for lunch.
