It's Good Friday and everything closes. And I mean everything! For this reason we decided to stay put all day and go to see the sunset tonight. We've lounged about all day. Yet again I made the most of the pool, even though it's freezing, while everyone else pottered about thinking I was mad. I found a tiny little lizard by the pool this afternoon and I didn't even chuck a hissy fit. I must be getting a bit brave! Having said that it was only little. It was alm...

A rather uneventful day. Muffin break again for breakfast. They must think we're stalking them. We had thought we might pop out for a few hours while Billy was at work but Nick was a bit knackered after all that driving in kilometres yesterday so we stayed in. Lots of lounging in the sun for me. I'm making the most of it as it's Billy's last day at work. It'll be action stations from here on in. It's delightfully warm and it wasn't long before my eyelids were he...

Finding time to write is proving easier said than done. I suppose it's a good sign cos it means there's loads going on. On Wednesday we arranged to see Julie.

We were on the road just after 9. We dropped Rich and the kids at muffin break and we were off. We stopped at Mac Donald's en rou...

People were in beanbags on the roof of their cars or on the bonnets or filling the backs of their trucks with cushions and blankets and picnics. I was beside myself with excitement from start to finish! Its kids films from now on as it's Easter holidays but I'd sti...

Kadie decided to even up the numbers a bit today and join us on our jaunt. First stop was muffin break. They were doing some sort of promotion that involved winning stuff from scratch cards. Kadie got really carried away and ended up with loads! After boosting our energy with caffine and cake we were off to Kings park. It was our first glimpse of the city. The buildings are a real mixture of old an new. Modern, glass sky scrapers all jostling for space among the ...
