On the way down through NSW......

Hello it's been a while,

Well we stayed at the Gold Coast for 5 nights and had a ball.  We went to SeaWorld, Movieworld and Outback Spectacular (which is awesome).

Andrew and Kevin went on all the rides at both parks and I went on one hahahahahaha and screamed my head off the whole ride...........the  sad thing is that it was the Looney Tunes roller coaster which i'm pretty sure is the kids ride lol as there were kids about 4 on there having a great old time!!!!!  It has been nearly a week since then and every now and then Chris will msg me and it is just a pic of my screaming face and we all just crack up as it is sooooooo funny.  What a friend!!!!!!  Hahahahaha.

Andrew and I went to Coolangatta on Saturday while Chris and Kevin visited their friends in Noosa.  We watched Alan Lyn and Shane dance in the rock and roll parade and then looked at all the cars in the Cooly car show.  We found a great pancake place and Andrew had eggs benedict on pancakes Yum.  It started to rain so we left and drove to Southport to visit Andrew's Aunt Mavis.  His Aunt Val and cousins Leanne, Lorraine and Lyndell were there too and Lyndell's 2 girls.  It was great to catch up after 20 years:) Andrew and I went out to dinner later at the Saltwater Creek Tavern.

On Sunday the weather was beautiful so we went to Surfers Paradise and wandered along the markets and then had lunch and a look around, after we went to the Pacific Fair shopping centre and YAY I finally found a phone cover to fit my phone.  We all went to the tavern tonight and had a play on the pokies.

We left Surfers about 9am and it started raining and didn't stop til the next morning but it wasn't cold or windy just dark and wet.

Called into Byron Bay and a few other places and stopped at the Grafton greyhound track for the night.  It is starting to get colder now and we had to wear coats this morning and I had long leggings on and then changed back into shorts later. 
We went to the Big Banana and Andrew said I always thought it was much bigger...........it always is when you are a kid haha.  Went to Coffs Harbour and it is a beautiful place, watched the whales frolicking off the beach, they were slapping their tails and blowing out water and jumping right up in the air they were awesome.
Stopped overnight in a roadside camp and it was really foggy in the morning.
Tonight we are at a caravan park in Dural about 20 k's from Sydney and it is very cold, Andrew and Kev have popped to the pub next door for a drink and play on the pokies and I am in my Jim Jams snuggled up in bed:)   We had to go over the mountains to get here and I was so scared I had a panic attack.............I am so lucky Andrew knows what I am like!!  I could have taken some fantastic photos but only my eyes moved to look, I couldn't make my head turn to look out the window lol.

Ok bye for now.   Lots of love to everyone am missing you all heaps xxx

Hi from sunny Hervey Bay

Hello all,

We have had a great time in Rockhampton catching up with Shane and Alan and relaxing for 5 days.  The weather was a bit hit and miss but mostly the sun decided to shine:) 

We did some sightseeing, we went to Yeppoon and to the Heritage Village which was great.........until I got a migraine (which I think was from the cheese platter the night before oops), but it didn't last long so that was good.

We also went to the Botanic Gardens and Zoo which are all in the same place and are free so it's great for kids.....young and old cos we all had a good time hehehe.

The wedding was a fabulous day and the sun shone at just the right time, the gardens and waterfalls were just beautiful.  And I must admit the boys all looked good in their Hawaiian outfits!!!!
Alan ended up getting me on the dance floor to rock and roll...............well there are no pics of that as I think everyone was laughing too much lol, I was knackered but hadn't done anything hahahaha, BUT Alan succumbed to MY way of dancing before the end of the song.......so I won YES!!!!!!

Andrew took me up to Mount Morgan on THAT road and it was pathetic......don't know what all the fuss was lol...piece of cake!!

We left Rockhampton Monday morning and we are now at Hervey Bay for a few days to do some touristy things and then we will base ourselves for about 5 days between Brisbane and the Gold Coast for some fun YAY.

Better go we are off to the Marina and the beach front for a look see.  Miss you all and hope at least some of you are missing us!!!!!
Oh and my weight watchers is still on target as wait for it........I am now 69.7 kg  WOOHOO haven't been under 70 for about 10 years I was soooooo excited hahahahahahaha.

Ok bye for now love to you all.

The two of us xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
