Eating Out!

One of Mummy's favourite things about being on holiday is that she doesnt have to cook! Here's a few food related pics...

Mummy and Daddy at the Hog's Breath Cafe.

Harry and Will

Cheeky Sam

I didn't realise possum was on the menu?

and I don't think Harrison did either!

He doesn't appear to happy about it!

A cool motorbike we spied on a walk to Cold Rock.

Dinner with Auntie Kita and Uncle Roche.

Of course top of the list for the boys is always McDonalds.

Sam enjoying his ice cream.

Harry likes to create his own taste sensations...dipping chips in his ice cream then washing it down with Fanta.

Will was desperately tired as you can see from his pic but forced himself to stay awake for his ice cream.

The Australian Cavy Sanctuary (who we foster our guinea pigs for) holds an annual "pignic". It's great - lots of stalls and displays, jumping castle, races and games etc. And of course...lots of guinea pigs! This years pignic as unfortunately held while we were 2 hours south of the event on holidays. Mummy surprised Harry by taking him anyway!

Lots of Piggy lovers setting up.

We took along our three girls... Snowy, Flossy (Flo) and Kozi. Harry decorated their run beautifully.

Alina clipped a lot of piggy nails throughout the day.

Harrison got to cuddle a lot of different guinea pigs.

The guinea pig sack race.

He came 2nd.

Bubble blowing.

ACS mascot - William.

Guinea pig food eating contest.

Harrison the tri-coloured smooth coat guinea pig!

Playing in the Pool

We had lots of good fun playing in the pool where we stayed. It's cool!

Move over Superman, her comes "Goggle Boy"

Sammy all smiles...

"You can't get me!" Famous last words!!

View from the slide.

Will is so confident in the water now...a little fish!

Harry's many antics on the slide gave us plenty of laughs.

Look out below!

Water anyone?

Mummy and her boys!

Rainy Days!

As you do when you are away for a few weeks, we scored a couple of rainy days. No probs tho, we found plenty to do! First up was bowling...

Sam's first bowl.

Checking the score.

Daddy's style.

Harrison - he has a unique "run up" but it works as he beat the rest of us both games!

Sam was in charge of the balls.

Will did very well and even commented to Mummy.. "hey Mummy, do you want to borrow my ramp?" That may just have been a very good idea LOL.

Next wet weather excursion was to Timezone. All four of Mummys male "children" (particularly the 31 year old) enjoyed that very much.

Harrison shows Daddy how to drive.

Then Will shows Harry.

Daddy and Harry played laser skirmish. Mummy, Will and Sam watched from the viewing room. Will gave Daddy the "thumbs up" when he shot Harry.

More bowling.

The only motorbike Mummy will ever allow the boys to ride!

Will is in heaven...he's allowed to whack something without getting into trouble.

Daddy and Sammy compete in Grand Prix

Harry practises his Soccer.

David Fleay's Wildlife Park

As far as Harrison is concerned a holiday is incomplete unless there is some kind of wildlife involved. We had a fun day at David Fleays Wildlife park.

Just arrived...very excited.

Moor hens and their chicks were wandering everywhere in the park.

Some of the animals were really strange looking as you can see in this pic!

Will makes friends with a diamond python.

Brolgas stand up from their nest to sing and dance for us...apparently this is quite rare and it was spectacular!

Carol the wildlife volunteer realised she had struck gold with Harry and his interest in animals, but we think she may have gone home with a sore throat after answering ALL his questions.

Can you spot the Diego shoe?? Sam has this fascination with trying to throw away his shoes... we lost one out the car window and a pair in K Mart just before we left for our holiday. His strategy here was to throw one into the Cassowary enclosure. The rangers went in to retrieve it but cassowaries are very aggressive so it was quite the operation and involved the cassowaries being put in their "lockdown" shed. Nice try Sammy!
