Kuranda

Today was amazing!

An early start to Freshwater Station fir a train ride up to Kuranda.

Some gorgeous scenery complete with waterfalls!

A visit to the Butterfly Sanctuary was probably the highlight alongside the candy shop demonstration!

Return trip was via Skyrail. I had to wipe from my mind the fact we were up sooooo high dangling nearly by a thread at one point!

Here are some photos. It was all too much fir some ;-)

Dinner at Mondo's

We had an excellant dinner last night with Tim, Lisa, Keeley and Mikaela at Mondo's.

Complete with face painting, karaoke for the girls and childrens entertainers (juggling, balloons and general craziness).

Tahlia performed a few numbers on the mic and literally didn't stop going all night.

We are up early thus morning for a day trip to Kuranda. Weather is quite ordinary (think tropical low) but we will make the most of it anyway.

Better get cracking!

PS please excuse any typo's!

Shopping and movies

So yesterday we spent many hours and many dollars at DFO.

The specials were amazing so we got lots for our dollars.

The girls changed into some of their new outfits shortly after buying them and I saw dome other kids who had done the same thing LOL!

Later we went swimming at our hotels pool which was nice and relaxing.

The girls bought themselves knock off Pandora bracelets after dinner.

Quite a late night by our girls standards. So it was great to have a sleep in til 8.15am!

We are now in Cairns Central and have bought me some legit charms for my Pandora. Just saw Princess and the Frog which was CUTE!!

About to have lunch and work out the plan for the next few days!

The dishes

I just left the girls at the table to finish their dinner. I went to the study and on the computer.

Tahlia soon came in and wanted me to put on a movie - which I did.

I heard some rattling around going on in the kitchen and then Isabella came in with the dishwasher tablet to tell me she'd done the dishes and just wanted me to unwrap the tablet and turn it on!

All unprompted!

How sweet is that???
