2013-07-16 Wonderful Walpole!


















Our trip to Walpole was awesome! We had so much fun in such a short time, and it felt like ages!

Stopped off at the cafe on the way down - ate some lovely donuts and had coffee - James recommended it to Daddy saying it was brilliant, and he was not wrong!

We stayed at Que Sera Sera chalets, which was next to a beautiful river and our cabin was set in a field and had a lovely fireplace. Each night we would go onto the balcony and listen to the sounds and look at the stars.

While we were down there we did loads of stuff:
  • Wilderness Tour - we saw surfing dolphins, whales off the coast, and we ate the famous Wilderness Tingle Cake, which was the loveliest cake we had for a long time - we ate all of it! Bit embarassing, but who cares!
  • Cooking - we pretty much cooked every night, as there was nothing in town, and only one IGA where we bought all our food. It was a really small town, and pretty funny.
  • Went to a lovely winery where we sat in the rain, but we had lovely soup
  • At night we used Daddy's camera to create our names and other shapes - it was cool!
  • We had races in our canoes every night - it was sooo much fun! First night it was Daddy and Aiysha vs Mummy and Clara, next night it was Mummy and Aiysha, and on the last night it was Mummy and Clara. We had so much fun
  • Gymnastics, of course!
  • Visited the toffee farm and had the most amazing ice cream!
  • Climbed up the tallest mountain, and it was soooo windy! Didn't stop me doing hand stands though
  • Went on the tree top walk
  • Visited Haughty Towers for some lunch and scones!
  • Set up a fire every night - it was pretty hot!
  • Watched Planes, Trains and Automobiles
We did loads of other stuff - it is so much fun going away as a family, it does not really matter what we do, we have lots of laughs :-)
