After multiple wake ups through the night thanks to the puppy, I was more than happy for the kids to get up and supervise her at 730 am! Nick and I finally got up an hour later to find most people camped around us were packing up and moving on. We had a cup of coffee sitting in the sun and then Nick made us all pancakes for breakfast. After another cup of coffee and a few games of Gubs we finally got down to some schoolwork. We did an hour or so of Maths th...

Tally was up once through the night and it was fairly mild walking around in the dark waiting for her to pee! When she woke again in the morning Jonny woke at the same time so he took her outside and I went back to sleep. By 830 am coffee finally got us out of bed but it seemed too quiet outside to use the generator. We postponed it until 9 and then could wait no longer. It was a magical morning so we took a very long time over breakfast and finally got dow...

Tally slept through the night for the first time and so it was much easier getting up with her at 6am even though our car park was covered in mist.

On the way home I picked ...

We had more rain overnight but it had all cleared up by 630am so Tally and I went for a short walk and by the time we got back Anna and Jonny were awake and waiting for a game of Gubs - some things become such quick habits!! After another slow breakfast we drove back into the Blue Mountains and this time went to Leura, the prettiest town we've visited yet. The main street was lined with the most amazing blossom trees running down the centre of it and coach lo...

Annie woke up in the middle of the night for the toilet so at the same time I took Tally out and the floodlights were still shinning brightly around the car park! It was just starting to spit with rain so I brought in everything that could get wet and climbed back into bed just as the heavens opened. When I woke up again it was 630am and Tally was ready to play! Luckily the rain had stopped and it was quite warm outside. We played until 730 when Annie woke ...
