This morning we went to the hospital to see Charlotte, the doctor's thought they might have to operate, but when they looked at the x-rays again they decided to leave it. Her arm is really swollen so they can't plaster it yet, we have to get that done in Katherine when we go there next week. So we all went to the shopping centre while we waited for them to get let out of hospital. When we got home we went swimming, poor Charlotte can't swim for the rest of the...

This morning we drove out to Litchfield, it took about an hour.

We took our bikes to look around while the grown ups started to set up, then Nana took us to the pool because w...

Charlotte, Ethan and I played on the playground and had a shower, because it was hot, when it got dark there were soooo many insects we all went to bed early.
