All the Australians think it's getting chilly...
...here on the Gold Coast, but us hardy Cantabrians (or at least 2 of us hardy Cantabrians) are spending a lot of time in the water. We spent yesterday at White Water World and had a ball...although my head is still spinning and my body still rocking! We are staying at Treasure Island Holiday Park. It is like no other camping ground we've ever stayed at. Quite the canvas resort, although there isn't any canvas that I can see! We're heading north again tomorrow - one night in Maroochydore for the Lee Kernaghan concert in Nambour, then we are heading bush again. We figure we have 5 weeks to get as far north as we can and then two to get back down before our last week here again. I would love to load some photos on (I know I keep saying that) and as soon as I find a good spot to do it I will!

Hi Caddies, so so sorry I missed your call Sue. Jane and I on BoT, meetings start next week. Liz had eyetest and now waiting for her new glasses. Johnny took part in the Sirius programme yesterday- design challenges- newspaper everywhere! Darren took Katie to Crusaders match last night, her first time, D said she had a 1000 questions. Evie has started a new story writing book at school, this one has only lines, no pictures, and her first entry was four pages all about her Mum, that will be one for me to keep! Have you seen any Am Idol? On NZ screen they down to 4, Crystal(your fav I think) Lee(He gets better every week) big Mike and Casey (good looking, tall with long blonde locks). Busy week ahead for me, bb to get finised and then friday is Hanmer weekend, yay, we will miss you, I,ll have an extra piece of chocy for you, maybe 4 or 5!
ReplyDeleteLove to you all from all of us. Wendy
I'm in! I'm in! Call me computer illiterate, but so is Kerryn. W have had a little trouble with communicating with you. I will check this works before I write my life history, again ...
ReplyDeleteOh this is good! I see my name in print! Well guys I have said it all before (believe me) but you all sound like you are having the trip of a lifetime. So pleased you are no longer in Thailand! We have followed your movements with great interest and a lot of the places, or at least their names, in Australia are familiar to us. We will become regular posters now and will ensure that KA gets online too! Take care. Lots and lots more fun to be had! Love from the Trowbridges
ReplyDeleteHey there Caddies! We are up and running again. Just stepped into the 21st Century and got Broadband. Wow... so much more to waste time looking at now! But great to catch up on your goss. Mac's birthday went off well. He loves the gift by the way. We all biked round McLeans then watched a Surfing DVD before doing the typical Mckenzie - Sheat whanau sit round the smokey pot belly trick. I know, I know... I can sense the disappointment from here Gordy. But we can do it again when you get back. Too cold for surfing at the mo. We just have to watch it on the big screen. All is well with us. We are loving work...and winter...and...no we're not!
ReplyDeleteTake care folks. Have fun!

Hey Finn you need to come back, the skate park is getting boring! Well you know how my dad said he would make a workshop in the hut, well he made a workshop but not there he made it in the old bike shed and I've found heaps of old skateboard parts and my very first deck! But I'm not much into skateboarding any more it's probably just because my deck's not very good oh well. You Know how I had those abec 7 bearings I put them on my wave board and two on the front of my scooter and typing about scooters I can go down the half pipe on it and go up and land a full tail whip and land it. O.k my mum doesn't want me to type any more so bye

Dear Rosa hope you have had a good time in Australia. I have missed you when you have been away. I wish you could come back today. In cross country race I came second for the 6 year old girls. At Irish Dancing we have started practising a dance for the show. Have lots of fun,

Hello cuddly caddies, We had cross country races today. I came first out of all the seven year old girls and beat some of the seven year old boys even though the boys started way ahead of the girls. when you get back to StJohn I will be in the green group, not penguins any more. Me and Evie started midget basketball on Fridays. Did you know there are three ways to dribble!!!
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to seeing you again, love from Katie
Thanks bro for the tshirt its mean as. It fits perfectly i had my cross country today I came first and beat the ten year olds the nine year old girls and some of the nine year old boys even though they started maybe fifteen minutes before me so i'm pretty chufed. surf is still good but the water is getting colder but that doesnt stop me. from Mac
