I"M BACK!

Well hello everyone! I'm back! And to a nice shiny page I might add. Well done Ant for whipping the troops into action.
Holidays are great but it sure is nice to be home. I am looking forward to sleeping in my own bed with my own pillows tonight. Hubby and son are being energetic and are going to Karate tonight. I will be doing pretty much nothing :)

Anyway, here is a run-down of our week.
The first two days we had rain which we didn't really mind that much because it was nice and cool and we had air-con. After that it was warm and sunny and the Beach was nice to swim at, although the waves were a bit rough. I like a calm sea. lol.
Our son, who is not a very good swimmer yet, had his first go at boogie boarding. It was amusing to watch, but exhausting, seeing I had to be there with him all the time so he didn't drown or get carried out to sea :)

OK Ant, so I did a wee bit of rock climbing, but these were horizontal.



It's nice on a weekday, not too many people. The sand is so fine and white, when you walk on it, it squeaks!

 We walked home and jumped into the pool which was cold but so refreshing.
After every swim we always went for a shower. There are two bathrooms in our Unit. One main one, that is built for people in wheelchairs (remember the unit belongs to a charity org who help families who have people with brain injuries, most of them are wheel-chair bound). The other bathroom is attached to our main bedroom and it has the most awesome shower in it. With LIGHTS! I love the shower so much, and seeing we aren't paying for it we can use all the hot water we want. In our bathroom there is also a spa which I used on the last night we were there. (On our honeymoon I made the rookie mistake of putting bubbles into the spa. Bad idea. You couldn't see me for bubbles!)
Day three we took our son to the Air Museum. It was awesome. SO many different planes, helicopters, bombers, transports etc. I fell in love with a GIANT helicopter that had the most enormous rotors on it. We were allowed to go into a couple of the planes, one was a big Air Force carrier. So cool.

*Sigh* LOVE IT!

On the weekend we went to the markets that they have in the centre of town. They close off the main street and it becomes a long arts and craft and food market. I got Dutch Pancakes for breakfast. With maple syrup of course!
We went to our favourite RSL club for dinner on night four. I got the most gigantic plate of chicken parmigiana with veggies. It was so yum. (on our honeymoon we went there and hubby told them we were honeymooners and they gave us free deserts).
The rest of the time was spent lounging around, reading, playing ds, watching movies and sleeping. I finally got to watch "Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole" which was absolutely stunning and I am kicking myself for not going to see it at the cinemas. But I own it now so I'll watch it on our big TV with surround.

My Valentine Pressie. awwww

So that's pretty much it. We are home, Moby is still here (although a wee bit miffed at me), the pumpkins have not eaten the neighbours (although there are now EIGHT!) and I am BUGGERED!
I will TRY to catch up on some of your pages in the next couple of days but I wont get to all of the posts.
I'll post the answer to my Tagged blog tomorrow.
