Three day weekend
So I had Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday off this week. What better way to spend it than to go camping. Chell and I packed up the car with the tent, sleeping bags, food e.t.c. and off we went. We ended up going to The Boulders at Babinda.
We arrived around 8:30pm and setup the tent, bed and had a cup of coffee. It was so hot sleeping, and I didn’t really fit too well in the tent, I had to lay sort of diagonally to fit properly. The next morning we got up at around 7am and had lovely cold showers, since there was no hot water at the camping grounds!
Eventful Day
Last night the boys friend Jayden stayed over. They had fun watching movies and playing the Playstation 2, they stayed up until midnight!
Today Chell and I took all the kids to Bowen for the day to swim and have fun, it was great. We stopped off at Ayr where the big rainbow serpent is and got photos of the kids.
Road trip to Paluma
We got the kids back last Saturday, so decided to go on a road trip up to Paluma. Paluma is about an hour and a half drive from Townsville. It was quite cool in Paluma, since it’s surrounded by rainforest and mountains.
Chell got a bit excited about the temperature so took a photo of it saying 14c, which you don’t often get here in Townsville. We stopped at a park and had some lunch, and the kids all played on the equipment. It was cute as Emily and Tiana would take it in turns pushing each other on the swing.
After lunch went then went up the mountain and took some photo’s of the kids and all the scenery. We went for a walk through the rainforest and took a few more photos.
After the long day, we drove home and the kids, even Chell fell asleep in the car, it was a quiet trip home :-). I will put some photo’s up in the gallery later sometime.

What a trip
Josh’s car broke down yesterday about 70km’s South of Sarina, and got it towed to Sarina which is about 35km’s South of Mackay. We got a phonecall asking if we can go pick him up, so being the kind people we are we set off on a long trip. Mind you, I did all this driving on 3 hours sleep.
We had showers, and left Townsville about 10:30am, we stopped off at a petrol garage at Ayr to fill the car up, then we kept going. The next stop was a pertrol garage between Proserpine and Mackay, got something to eat, and bought The Picture magazine.
Update: Photo’s are added into the gallery, you can view them here.
