2006-08-14 Mango Tree!











A: I had a wonderful sleepover at Hannah’s! Beck said I was the perfect guest – of course. Cam was there, and he was funny. We got to bed at about 8, after having fish fingers, and I fell asleep first, and slept through! So nice not being disturbed by Mummy and Daddy sneaking in to kiss me goodnight!

This weekend we had so much to do! But we worked really hard, and managed to get a lot done! We were all really tired on Sunday night, but we had a lovely lasagne.

On Saturday, we spent the morning taking apart the office. The bench was too big, so we went to Bunnings and bought a chain saw – so funny! It was really clever! Not as loud as I thought it was going to be. We laughed at Daddy as he put on his goggles, earmuffs and mouthpiece! We also went to The Bennion to have cakes – I had a Callippo like in England, and Mummy and Daddy shared a lovely lemon cake, which I nibbled on too! After that, we decided to go to Bennion Beach, and it was really wavy and windy! We ran up and down the beach shouting – so funny! We all then sat on the rocks and let the waves crash around us! I was a little scared, but I was brave too!

On Sunday Mummy managed to go for a swim, while me and Daddy went on the bouncy bridge, just like at Lutterworth! At one point Daddy fell off, and I carried on and slid down the last slide into the water, and Daddy wasn’t there! I stayed afloat, and called Daddy, and finally he wondered around! He said I did really well to stay afloat to wait for him. Me and Daddy also banged heads, and I cried a little, but went straight back on after my ice! We then went for Dim Sum in Northbridge's Emperor’s Court – it was gorgeous – Duck and Duck again! I loved it! We then went to buy a mango tree – it was actually a nursery, and had sooo many fruit trees, so we got Mango, Mandarin and Lychee trees! We are so excited – I ate about 4 mandarins off the tree on the way home – they were lovely.

C: I sold our first books in Whitfords Shopping Centre - we're finally in a shop in Australia! Hope they go well. Still feeling quite ill - I hope it goes soon! Bennion Beach was hilarious! Still amazes me how we can just have some cakes, then walk to a beach! Went to Burns Beach with Aiysha, and that was beautiful! No one there at all! Dim Sum was amazing!

S: Can't wait for Mango pancakes in the summer! Weather a bit wet at the moment, but we're doing a lot indoors, so we don't mind. Dim Sum was anazing!
