Wow! What a Busy Week

We all have had a very busy week as you can tell. I have been with the WA Police just about every day.

Day 1 was spent chasing "Bikies" or as we call them Outlaw Bikers, with the Gang Squad. I got to even "meet and chat" with a couple of them if you know what I mean. The most notorious of them all, the Coffin Cheaters, were not home or at least they would not come out and chat.

Day 2 was spent with the Water Police traveling the Swan River looking at the "sights". They have a 55 foot Police Yacht called the Falcon that is simply a beast on the water. Even their smaller crafts are awesome. I did'nt get the opportunity to dive with them due to all of their divers being dispatched away to the far north on a mission.

Day 3 was spent at the Joondalup Police Academy. This is one nice facility, it even has a hotel on site. One of the most impressive parts of the academy is the "Village". It is truely a working town within the gates of the academy complete with actors acting out everything from drunks to murderers. This is some good training. Not to mention new recruits spend 6 months there prior to being sent into the field to work.

Well, we are off to our next stop in Kojonup. Cheers!

Scott,
I'm glad they gave you a break to prove you are there and you didn't run off with Snoop Dog and the gang. Can't wait to see some pictures. See you soon, Lots of Love.
Your home "sights"
