Surf camp and sydney show

John had another shift without a call yesterday, which was rather boring, though it did give them time to wash the helicopter, which was a first - it's not every day you get to bucket wash a $16.5 million dollar aircraft - there was, however, a huge rainbow on the drive to work which made it worth going in anyway.  Weather has been a little breezy and cooler but today was fabulous! Last day of surf camp for the girls and we also went to the Sydney Family Show in Centennial Park which is more of a kiddie carnival than the Easter Show - the girls enjoyed the bungees and Kate went in a 'hamster ball' which she loved, in fact, we may have to get one for her to use around the house - it would keep the crumbs from her sandwiches contained. Speaking of sandwiches, the girls were excited to find marshmallow fluff at the 'reject store' (sort of a unclaimed freight store up the road) so they had a decidedly nutritious sandwich for lunch of nutella, peanut butter, and marshmallow fluff....

Last day of a 4 day surfing camp on school holidays - as you can see, the girls are doing well, Tess is down to a 7ft long board and enjoying it a lot! Kate got 'washing machined' yesterday and was a little tentative today, but still had fun.

Tomorrow we're off to Hamilton Island for a week of exploring in the not-so-wilds of Queensland...
cheers,
