Friday
Clog had to go to hospital as she could not go to the toilet. After loads of trying, she finally did one in the hospital, which was

rock solid - nice!

Saturday
We flew out early Saturday, and noticed the heat straight away! Lovely! Someone almost stole our taxi too! When we got our car, we

went shopping, but also had a late lunch at Zoo Cafe. We had tapas, steak s/w, fish, and it was amazing! We were all so tired, and we

got to bed pretty quickly. We met Grant, Mel, Millie, Neve, who were our neighbours - they seem really nice! Clara did manage to do a

poo, in a very unusual place! Mummy knows all about it.

Aiysha's Journal We have our own car and we are going to stay in Habitat Resort. Me and Clara are sharing a room and we left on a Saturday. We will come back on a Friday. At the Habitat Resort they have a pool and it is hotter at Broome. Every night I get to stay up late. There is a park in the Habitat Resort. We will go swimming in the swimming pool. Before we went we packed our suitcases. I put in my: - toothbrush and toothpaste - a few jackets and jumpers - some jeans - some shorts - some things - some skirts - my pj or my nightie - my dressing gown - my sleeping socks - my money - a few colouring books - pens and pencils - my journal - t-shirts and long sleeved t-shirts - Swimming clothes - snacks - knickers - boots - dresses and hats My Mummy and Daddy are sharing a room. The pool has a slide down into the pool. It is pretty small and Clara brought her: - Armbands - toothbrush and toothpaste - hats - jackets and jumpers - a few skirts - a few shorts - t-shirts - a few long sleeved t-shirts - dresses and knickers - snacks - boots - swimming clothes - clara's day clothes for night time - her nightie that we call a dress On the plane it was very noisy and me and Daddy sat next to each other. Mummy and Clara sat next to each other. Me and Daddy drew funny pictures. On the plane I got blocked ears. When we went to the beach we saw hermit crabs. I named one Sammy. I met 2 girls - their names were Milly and Neve. Millie's real name is Amelia.

Sunday
We woke up 6.30 and Clogger and I watched ABC Kids. There were also some bombs in Jakarta, Indonesia, which was a bit sad. We walked to Hermit crab beach, and it was amazing how many hermit crabs there were! Daddy went to take a picture of a tree - not very interesting. We went into the cold pool with the rugby ball, but it was fun playing volleyball.
We had a big sausage for lunch! In the afternoon, We played with Neve and Milly while Grant and Mel had a tea with Mummy and Daddy. We went to see a sunset on a on a deserted beach, which was amazing! We had sweet sauce chicken for dinner - yummy!
Clara had a tantrum which hurt my ears. She always does that!

Monday
When we got up, we played the catching game with Milly and Neve and Daddy, which was funny! We went to the Tourist Center, and picked up some postcards. We then went to the Mango Place, and did the rainbow tour where we read a map to find all the different fruit trees in the orchard (Clog was a bit annoying!). It was really hot, so we got a slushy after. Clog slept on the way to Town beach, and Mummy and I swam while Daddy took more photos - not very interesting.

We had a Chicken sandwich at home after Roebucks fish shop where we got some Thread Fin, and Daddy made some lovely fish which Mummy and Daddy called Gubinge Fish after a funny road name in Broome - strange people those parents!

Daddy and I went for a quick swim before our camel ride in the afternoon, which was amazing, even though some people on the beach were not wearing any clothes! Just like me at home! We then played at Cable Beach after, then I went with Millie, Neve, Grant to hermit crab beach. More Gubinge Fish for dinner - yummy!

Aiysha Journal On Monday we went on a camel. On the plane I got chocolate. I got a swirly whirly and a small chocolate. Once with Milly and Neve we got 2 pieces of chocolate. When we rode the camels we rode them on the beach. I sat next to Daddy on the camels, and Mummy sat next to Clara on the camels. It was very bumpy when it went down and up. On the camels there were lots of camels and other people rode them too.

Tuesday
Up early again today at 6.15 to watch the Mr Men and News. We then played Kingball with the girls.

We went to Entrance Point where we did a rock walk, a croc hunt, a challenge to reach the furthest rock - there were some big waves, and we got cut off a few times, which was fun! We then went to Gantheaume Point where we saw eagles, rock layers, huge waves, and a chimney!

We had a BBQ lunch - steak s/w, sausage, and played Cluedo while Rocker was asleep - Daddy won unfortunately.

We then went to Cable Beach to build castles, had some roles, Daddy went for a run, looked for crocs, did some running races, and saw a wedding!

More Gubinge Fish, and then played some night ball games with all girls on their last night. We took some photos too!

Wednesday
Up early again. and played more games with Millie & Neve. We waved goodbye to Purseys as they drove off - they were fun! I hope to see them in Perth sometime! We went to China Town, went around the Pearl Luggers museum, and then to a bead shop. Nice place! We had Bacon and Eggs for lunch, and I brought a drink out for Daddy without being asked! I was very proud.

We went to the Croc Farm tour, which was pretty hot and scary, but I managed to have an ice cream, and hold a baby croc!

Steaks for dinner.

Aiysha's Journal Milly and Neve left today. I ate 6 things for breakfast. I ate: - 3 pieces of raisin toast - Yoghurt with strawberries - 2 sweet milk breads There were lots of crocodiles at the beach. There was a crocodile at Cable Beach. It was 4m long. Milly and Neve told us. It was on a Tuesday. On Monday we went to Redell beach, there was a crocodile, but we did not see it. Today we went to China Town. We bought a present for Danielle and Lucy. Today we went to see the crocodiles. I held one of the crocodiles but they had a lacky band around it's mouth and it was a baby one. A man fed the crocodiles. I think Bluey was the biggest. We got an ice cream. I had a chocolate ice cream, Clara got a Fruju Icy Pole, and Daddy got a twin pole. Mummy did not have anything. We had dinner out.

Thursday We finally managed to get a big 4WD car from Core Fleet, found Daddy's bank card, then drove to Willie Creek on some dusty roads. We had carrot cake and I stole some biscuits. There were so many lizards around!

We then went further into the bush to Crab Creek - there were dead sharks, and mud skippers. Clara did a poops and we all played queen while Daddy took photos. There were dead animals on the road surrounded by birds, and we also went to the bird observatory, but saw very few birds.

We had an aperatif at home, and then walked to Hermit crab beach at sundown - I was the hermit crab master, since we could not find any at all. We only discovered them at the back of the beach, and there we hundreds! I spotted them all!

Gubinge Fish again - lovely!

Clogger and I did a performance for Mummy and Daddy - it was so funny!

Friday
We returned the 4WD, went into town to buy a couple of things. then back to Habitat for a swim and play with teh rugby ball for ages!

It was so nice! We went to Cable Beach for dinner, then to the airport by taxi. We were home at 11.30, and we were all exhausted.

It was an amazing holiday!

Aiysha's Journal We had it at Cable Beach. I had fish and chips, and we bought 2 of them. Daddy and Mummy had 'The Lot'. Once we went in the bush. There was a beach. There were dead sharks. We saw 2 sharks, they were baby sharks. When we came back on the plane, we had a TV. When we came back I was excited so I could play with my friends. The day after we came back, I had my Gym Comp. It was against other teams. High Flyers, which I go to, came third. I got a bronze medal. We were the only ones which came third. It was 4 hours. We were on each apparatus for an hour. We also got a certificate.

Saturday Even though I was tired, we had my gym Competition at Loftus road. I did well, and Mummy and Daddy said I performed very well, and was perhaps the best in my group! My team got bronze, which was fine. I was proud, and Daddy took a video of my floor routine, which went well.

Sunday We had a lazy day at home.
