Hi Family, Reece and I having such a lovely holiday with Jo, Rich, Lucas and Emily. We are at the Big 4 Caravan Park in Tewantin. It is a 10 minute drive to Main Beach in Noosa and Hasting St. The park is now nearly full with holidayers in all sorts of caravans and tents, many with Xmas lights on at night. It is remarkably quiet in spite of lots of kids about. They are all usually in bed early, just like me!!! Our site is on the edge of the park so we don't have neighbours on all sides which is very nice. Some trees surround and lots of lawn. They are good big sites. Jo and Rich in a small two bed cottage where we have our evening meal together. Good air con and nice big verandah where the kids play in their new $8 paddling pool. Good pool here which we have used a lot. The kids pool is great. Lucas a whizz at doing all sorts of twisty underwater tricks. We have been to the beach first thing most mornings. Water beautiful and clear. Great fun watching the fish swimming amongst us. Emily vey brave in the shallow and loving the waves.weather has been perfect. Just looked like rain yesterday but only a short spell, and it became extremely humid.... Just what I hate.. Tis morning now as I write at 0630 the sun is shining so looks like another great day.
We had a perfect day for Xmas. We were up early unwrapping pressies. Such excitement. Then down to the beach home for a rear then we has a late lunch early dinner about 5 starting with champagne and some delicious prawns from Tin Can Bay. Then ham and a woolies turkey roll cooked in the electric frypan...no oven at Jo's... Finished with a yummy chocolate plum pudding bought from the Balnarring Markets when we were with Vance and Annie. And of course ice cream and custard.all pretty good. What a big crowd at Rozza's.. I'm sure it was a lovely day.
Reece and I leave here on Jan 3 and we will pick up Ray Bland on the way near Brisbane. We will travel together to Melbourne where they will take the Tassie Ferry to Devonport on Jan12 and travel about while I am in WA. I will arrive in Perth on Jan 11 and return to Hobart on Jan 26 where I will meet Reece and Ray. Ray will then return home and Reece and I will stay in Tassie longer. So Reece and Ray will play together. Jo and Rich leave here on Jan 3 and will then have 2 nights at Coolum just down the road before they fly home to Sydney on Jan 5. Then I don't know when we will see them again??? Probably not will abut April May when we head north again to " do" Queensland.
