The End of the day Climbing Hills.
Afterwards we started a fire and roasted marshmellows on it. They were very tasty.

Number of Views :4960This year it is Ella and Ethan’s turn to do the Grampians with us, following in the footsteps of their cousins, Dante and Tessa, whom we brought here in Nov 2010.
As they are missing a week of school to be here with us they have to write a journal about their travels. Ella is already well into hers, so we thought rather that us write these blog entries we would reproduce Ella’s story.
We hope you enjoy our adventures with our grandchildren as seen through their eyes, well Ella’s anyway! 🙂

Leaving this afternoon to drive half way there for an overnight stop in Bordertown, before the final 3 hour leg tomorrow.
Should give us time to get some boarder crossing pictures with Ella and Ethan. We are looking forward to some crazy days.
Look out Grampians, Ella and Ethan are coming!!!

We are definitely getting ready to be home, both of us awake around 7, what’s with that!! 🙂
We had a very relaxing day, the most strenuous thing was cleaning the awning, ready for putting the van back in storage. Deb cleaned the inside and I did the outside. While it dried we took a walk down the beach to do a Geocache (http://www.geocaching.com ). An easy find just in the “dunes” next to the beach. By the time we got back the awning was dry and we rolled it away. Continue reading

We took it very easy this morning, I took Aiko for a walk up to the main jetty and back, and that was as active as we got. 🙂 The weather is still overcast, windy and it’s a little cool. Continue reading

After we finally got going for the day, I went out and washed the car. There are some bad points to remember when asking for a site with shade, this normally involves trees, and here that means LOTS of birds (parrots and galahs) sitting in trees doing what birds do! Continue reading
