Sorry about yesterday’s blog. I did it as a page as the post wasn’t saving, it’s in the right place now!
Had a very quiet day again today. We were going out for a drive to a lookout, but the weather wasn’t looking good and it started raining, so just as well we stayed home!
Had a nap in the comfy chair and Maria and I finished off the jigsaw after dinner, so that’s another one done!
So just to finish off, here is another photo of the garden and the dogs. Rommel who is John & Tasha’s and Maria’s Chloe.
Oh dear, this wasn’t happy yesterday so I did it a different way and it wasn’t showing in the list, sorry!
Well it wasn’t a ‘quiet’ day today. Archer and Charlotte had the day of school and spent it with us.
First up was a new jigsaw to sort and pancakes for breakfast!
We headed out to a munzee garden that had appeared not too far away, so while the little ones played games on phones in the back seat, Maria and I had a pleasant time driving around carparks.
We then headed for a splashpark near the Southern Cross University. Fascinating place with water coming out of all sorts of devices and receptacles. It included a large barrel shaped container that filled up until it was too full and then a huge cascade of water splashed down and completely soaked anyone under it. Archer was completely sopping when he tried it!
Had a large icecream thing from the McDonald’s drive-through on the way home.
Once home it was craft time. I helped Charlotte make a dream-catcher whilst Maria and Archer did some model making. Tasha watching in the background!
Dinner once they had gone home, Maria cooked tonight! Then I nearly fell asleep in the chair. Blog writing and then off to bed!
A few more images from the splash park. Interesting fruit in a tree, a mynah and a mudlark!
My flight through Doha has been cancelled, so now flying Seattle-Los Angeles-Sydney-Perth, still getting home on the 19th May.
Another quiet day. Helen and I went back to that little wetland we went to last week. I did have my binoculars this time! Helen went walking and I stayed in the bird hide. We both sat and watched for quite a while when she returned, such an interesting place.
Filled up with fuel on the way home, as Helen is heading to the airport in the morning.
Finished the jigsaw, Helen is taking it home so Mum can do it!
Ron had to rescue his lighthouse from the fishpond and Maria’s staghorn is amazing!
Had a family barbecue for dinner, 10 of us, so rather a madhouse, LOL. Helen did a great job keeping Archer and Charlotte occupied.
