Had a great catch up with 'The Earls'. Again all the kids were excited to see one another and was great for us to talk face to face. It's great to be able to give everyone a hug when you see them instead of just saying 'hello' on the phone.
Fiona and Chris took great interest in our trip, and we showed them some photos and movies of our trip so far. Highlighted was our adventure in The Cape. It was awesome to sit around after the kids had gone to bed and chat about our adventures over a bottle of wine and some beers. We really enjoyed seeing Fi and Chris again, was great to see their faces.
The kids loved swimming with each other and going down the blow up waterside. After a few slips on the wet ground, their was just laughter heard and the sound of splashes as they catapulted into the water. The kids also had a ball with an XBox dance game, was hilarious watching them all with different coordination skills, Meg even gave it a good crack for her age.
Another tick off the box for Marty was had when we had Indian takeout one night. Fi knows exactly what to order and it was so delicious we all stuffed ourselves silly that we couldn't move for quite sometime!! However, we could still fit in a treat from the wonderful Fi's kitchen with her homemade chocolate gelato! Miss your cooking mate, thanks for the treat!!!!

The Copes were also on the agenda to meet up with and we were lucky to have found a spare moment to catch up. Ella and Marly have grown so
Much and l couldn't believe it that Ella remembered who we, and especially the girls, were. Alana kept up the promise and fed us her awesome apple slice. Rhett even called in to say hi which was great, we know how busy he is. It was fantastic to see them and can't wait for them to pack their van up and come meet us somewhere.
