Rocky - Zoo Zoo

Zach has had a close encounter with the kitchen bench....the children are just at the age where the marble top is just at head height.  Zach was coming back to take the next plate to the table from the kitchen when he cracked his head against the counter top.  Quick visit to the doctor to make sure he hadnt broken anything, and he was up and away with a beautiful shiner.

The first bike rides.......and probably the most important advice Hannah will hear for some time.

Ten-ish.

Beds are over-rated.

A reminder of the old days in the Middle East. We still see some pretty unusual things in Australia, but this sort of thing would be entirely common. Notice the lack of regard for any sort of traffic regulation as the chasing cars rush to catch up, and the 4x4 that seems to be intent on trying to 'herd' the poor cretaure with his vehicle. The ostrich has more sense than most of the drivers.

Easter Break in Mollymook with Matt & Tanya Boys, Chris & Jules Gordon and assorted children (9 in total from 7 to 2 years). Back row: Sunny, Tilly and Poppy Gordon, Ellie Boys. Front Row: Thomas, Zach, Hannah, Lachlan and Anneka Boys.

Weather was beautiful for most of the week, and plenty of time to get down to the beach. Hannah, Thomas and Anneka the pressure of working with one of the world's leading sandcastle experts.

Poppy shows Zach how to stand up on a surf board. Now he just has to get the nerves to actually go in the water.Ellie and PoppyThe view down the beach with the Bogey Hole in the distance.

And out to the surf - and this is a low surf day.

And if you look carefully, you can see the dolpins playing just beyond the surf. At least, I hope they are dolphins...................
