Mission Beach

We finally got out on "That Reef". We had a beautiful calm day- (though Curtis still managed to be sea sick on board)

Max decided to go snorkeling (without the snorkel). Wow! what fantastic fishlife we saw. Heaps of parrot fish, clown fish and all other colourful fish- no Dory fish though.

This beauty is Wally the Hunp Headed Maori Wrasse- (thought you might like the name Aunty Jo)






Georgie and Wally



Sports Day at Misssion was a big day out. Georgie was in the final for high jump. She one the prize for the biggest cheer squad with Uncle Pete, Aunty Jo, Shea Shea and Jadin all there on the day

Georgie and Toddy swam under this water fall- FREEZING!!

Georgie can't help herself.She has to swim any time we are near water. These waterslides were great at Murray Falls near Tully.




Curtis also loves the water . He took himself for a swim ( with the leeches) at Lacey Creek

Hi Everyone. Georgie is asleep so I will do the blog today
Hope you are having fun in the holidays. We have loved our holidays in FNQ. We had a week in Port Douglas/Cairns/ Cape Trib, back in the van for a week. We were all having a ball but were also keen to get back to our gorgeous little house for a relaxing week at home. Lots of walks and bike rides on the beach. Justine paid us a visit in the second week which was great. Georgie loved her new straight hair- Thanks to resident stylist Justine .

Another sunrise on Mission Beach out the front of our house. Curtis is still keeping us on our toes but at least now we are not waking up the whole caravan park with his early morning antics






Coconut Baby. Curtis is obsessed with coconuts and loves to collect them every time we are at the beach-









Buddha Max is loving his yoga ( at school) and gymnastics (after school). Great for his focus. We caught him pracitising meditation. Bless!
