since I posted a message and so much has happened.
We've just got home after nearly 2 weeks away in lovely Queensland. We spent 5 days on the Gold Coast with my brother Tony, his wife Megan and now 8 year old Jackson! We stayed in a lovely house at Mermaid Beach - 5 bedrooms, plasma screen TV's, pool, playstation for the boys, table tennis table, etc. It was the perfect place to base ourselves.
Of course we did the theme park thing - 3 parks in 3 days!! The boys tell me they liked Wet 'n' Wild the best. I was very brave and went down a water slide with Shayne - what fun, but couldn't convince Bowen to give it a go. Ryan went on another one with Shayne and Tony though!
My brother was a revelation! For someone who doesn't like water, he got remarkably wet and also surprised us all by going on the Superman rollercoaster at Movieworld with Shayne who went on it twice! They are still talking about how awesome it was. Much too scary for me - I was happy to stay on the ground and take photos!
I was also really lucky to meet the wonderful Robyn - she is such a sweetie and I was sorry I couldn't stay and chat all day. She even made us some of her wonderful bikkies - the boys did leave a few for me!
We said goodbye to Tony, Megan and Jackson and then headed off to the Sunshine Coast for some rest and relaxation. Didn't do too much but enjoyed the most wonderful massage, truly relaxing!
I think I took over 1000 photos - I have included a few here for you - love how the water shots turned out!! I think I'll have plenty to scrap for the next 10 years!!
