Tomorrow we head off on another Kombi holiday. Our first plan was to travel to Victoria and do the Great Ocean Road, but with the rain that is forcast for that part of the world and our need of a rest rather than an adventure we decided to head north and relax.
Our first destination is [...]

Although, I did manage to cook quite a mean Hamburger for dinner. With the lot!
Well we have certainly enjoyed Moree [...]

Day 8 – Bowling, the old person kind
October 14th, 2009 · No Comments
We started the day kind of leisurely with coffee and a lot of sitting around. At 11am we decided to head down to the bowling green and try our hand at lawn bowls – how hard could it be? It was boys V girls and the game was on.
As it turns out it’s a [...]

It’s our last day today. To make the most of our day we started with a spot of Archery – or at least the kids did and they did quite well hitting the target more times than I would have.
After Archery Bryce and I decided it was time for his first game of [...]
