Today we are celebrating little Evie's 8th Birthday.
So, at lunchtime Stew and I will go out to Rowena's for her birthday party.
Until then, we will probably just have a quiet morning here.
I mentioned we went on a little buggy ride last night, it was around the property Rowena and Aleisha live on.
ABOVE: THAT was an experience we did not expect! I was scared, but not TERRIFIED. lol
So far on this trip, we have:
- Been on a Plane
- Been on a Tram
- Been on a Train
- Been on a Bus
- Been on a Ferris Wheel
- Been on a Boat
- Been on a Buggy
And of course a car.
Rowena is determined to get us on everything.
I assured her a Helicopter, Hover Craft and Submarine were out of the question!
Let's not mention Hot Air Balloons, cos that will NEVER happen either!
This trip really has, and still is, amazing. So much fun. A bit freakin' hot, but we ain't melted... yet. π

Right, I'm off to have a shower, get dressed and start our day.
12.38 pm. We realised a shop we wanted to re-visit was closed tomorrow, so we jumped on the motorway and went back into the city.
Grabbed what I wanted and we are now almost back at Rowena's for a birthday lunch party.
OMG it is STINKING HOT!!!!
Just found out its 33 degrees right now... heading to 35.
WHERE IS EVERYONE??? You peeps are very quiet, you better be having fun.
5.16 pm, Aussy Time. We are just in from the birthday party... which went very well.

My photos have loaded back to front! Never had that happen before.
It was incredibly popular with all the kids.
ABOVE: Me sitting in my sister's chair... cos it had a cushion that went down the back of my legs. The march flies (Horse Flies) were vicious! I got several bites. Nasty things.
Stew and I struggled with the heat today, it really was getting up there.
Now that we are back at the motel, we have the air conditioning on, the ceiling fan going at 90 miles an hour and are just chilling!
I shall sign off now, as I just want to relax.
Catch ya tomorrow... when we will be going home, late in the afternoon.
Um close to the point when I'd be getting out lol.
ReplyDeleteSounds like the buggy ride got more of a reaction than Dracula event
ReplyDeleteHi, it looks like you are having a good time...!! It is a bit hot up there, that is for sure...much cooler down south where I am ....take care and enjoy...Peta
ReplyDeleteJust back from grocery shopping…..fun NOT. But that buggyride I would enjoy.
ReplyDeleteWhere am I? I was outside enjoying 27 degrees in Christchurch :) Great to see you and Stew enjoying your holiday.
ReplyDeleteSwap you for 12 deg but feels like 8. Tomorrow we are expecting 16 deg but 5-10mm of rain. Last time I was in Queensland it was 40 degrees at 9am and we had to be outside for a funeral. I was hiding under a tree sitting on one of the few chairs supplying
ReplyDeleteWhere am I? I'm about three hours further north of you and I have been melting as well.!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos and yes we were hot in Sydney 31 in the shade!
ReplyDeleteI was at an end of year soccer team picnic.
Relaxing now too.

ReplyDeleteThe pics yesterday were amazing and wow doing the buggy ride on sunset scary but a feeling of achievement aye.

I'd be scared of bugs....
ReplyDeleteLove seeing you enjoy my home city! What lovely memories you are making honouring your sister ❤️ Yes today was a bit warm but thankfully not too much humidity here as yet. That cake looked so good! Nicrunninggirl
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome holiday you have had. It must be nice to spend that time with the family. Have a safe trip home.
ReplyDeleteWhat is a buggy? It is starting to get cold up here in Canada and the leaves are falling. I don’t mind the cold but I don’t do the hot summer days to well. Gigi
ReplyDeleteOMG, did you just say you are too HOT??!
ReplyDeleteJust been catching up on your posts for the last couple of days - apart from Dracula, looks as if you are having a wonderful time. Great pictures, and you are both looking really happy - though I’m sure there are a lot of mixed emotions too.
Wow that is fun to have a climbing thing brought in! I'm so glad you are having a good time! Minus the heat and flies!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fantastic birthday party! Did all of those fun things come to the home of the birthday girl? Ponies and climbing walls? Or did you go somewhere? Fun!
ReplyDeleteDogstars
They brought them out to the house.
