The boys woke up around 630 am but managed to keep quiet until 7 as they were to be fined $1 each if they woke us up before then - money seems to talk (or not!!!!) with the twins! Tallis was waiting at our doorstep when we finally got out of bed and Annie went straight out to play with him in her pj's. It was lovely watching her roam around the paddock with the dog following enjoying the early morning sun. She chatted away to him the entire time and the dog ...

We all had a fantastic nights sleep as it was so quiet with only the odd 'moo' from a passing cow to disturb the peace. Unfortunately the boys woke up early around 5 from the cold and they did their best to wake up everyone else. By 730 am we were having our first cup of coffee in the sunshine looking at a stunning view! Tallis appeared as soon as we opened the caravan door and he stayed with us all day. Nick tried another game of cricket with the kids but ...

The beds were packed away wet though and the caravan floor was trashed as we walked in and out packing up to leave. We were on the road by 830 am and the first stop was Beaudesert for a much needed coffee! After that we climbed up The Great Dividing Range for some fantastic views ...

We all wanted another quiet day so the morning was spent completing another full session of schoolwork and then after lunch we all went into town to get the laundry done before we head off tomorrow. We had coffee and ice creams in town and a play in the park while we were waiting then returne...

We all had a much-needed sleep in, especially Nick, and woke up to another beautiful day. Initially we had planned a week here to explore all the National Parks around us, as there are multiple walks and waterfalls to visit. However, nine months into our travels and we are all shattered so we decided on a very lazy day around the camp. We spent the morning doing some serious schoolwork, as it has been a while since the kids completed a full session. We took...
