As you may have gathered time has flown the last couple of weeks. We’ve been a bit busy! Now we are beginning to think about luggage, about tickets and checking in times, about driving time to airport and where the hell is the hire car return area!
In no particular order…
We have watched Jack as he plays Ultimate with the big people…
We’ve lost half of Phroggy down a hole on the beach.
We’ve had some amazing sunsets…
… and lots of rain and rainbows…
We’ve had some noisy drinks with the terrible two…
… and some peaceful coffees by the Pumicestone Passage reading the papers …
We’ve been walking in the mangroves beside the Passage with Bribie Island in the background …
We had a puncture on the way to pick up Phroggy from school. Luckily there was a tyre shop en route and even more luckily they had no one waiting so it was all fixed in 20 minutes. In plenty of time to get to Ben’s school.
We went for a cycle, scoot and run. A sort of triathlon. Jack did the cycling, Ben scooted and Robin ran…
We visited Jack’s school for his end of term Easter “concert”. Jack was in the choir – third row, right-hand end …
… And afterwards to his classroom for very healthy elevensies. All the other classes had cakes and buns and biscuits – lots of sticky things. Jack’s teacher had insisted on healthy foods – fruit, sandwiches, wraps and the like. Boring! I’m off next door!
We’ve seen signs confirming our identity…
… and other seemingly unnecessary labels…
… but some are really relevant …
We went to Spotlight (again) and chose some dress fabric (again) …
… and then We didn’t buy it (again)! But it would have been a bargain!
Then we had to deliver a card to Jane (from Art on Cairncross) who is currently residing in the ICU at Sunshine Coast University Hospital. Get well soon Jane. The hospital is bran new and truly magnificent.
It’s so big that the internal corridors are all named roads and avenues. And the lifts are all colour-coded to assist bewildered visitors find the correct way to the correct wards. Furthermore, the multi-story car parks alone are bigger than the whole of Torbay hospital! (Our local!) Clearly the planners have got wind of Aura and all the other housing developments on this part of the coast…
FINALLY – as it’s rugby season, I thought you’d like to see this: Google “Gingerbread haka”…
I really have to work out the embedding trick!
