"It was only about 45 minutes from the Cape until we flew over Perth," says Glenn.
"To look down and be able to see the lights that the people from Perth had turned on, all the porch lights and the refinery, and I could see not only Perth but Rockingham next door very clearly."
My mum likes to tell the story of the night, she says the family covered their clothes line in sheets and shined as many lights as they could on it 
Hmmmm, might have to hunt down the Blu-ray. |
It's a classic movie for sure, only watched it about 2 weeks ago
