Manly

Will found the drive from Port Macquarie to Manly rather tiring as you can see below.

 

But the pizza he had for dinner was well worth the wait! For those of you who may not know, Pizza is Will’s  and Sam's favourite meal but it MUST be accompanied with garlic bread.

Mummy and Daddy think those game boys are worth their weight in gold! Here we are playing with them in the hotel so Mummy and Daddy can sleep in.

Nanny and Grandad came down with us for the weekend (and flew Harry with them) and here we are at the beach with them. We loved having them with us and Mummy and Daddy really appreciated them picking us at from the wedding at 8pm so they could enjoy the later part of the reception.  The pic above was taken AFTER the shark siren went off hence the lack of people in the water!  The pic below was taken after we had the all clear to go back in.

Auntie Clare got married!

The reason for our trip was really to attend Auntie Clare’s wedding (she married a lovely man named John)but then we decided to make a holiday out of it by visiting some other fun places.  Will and Sam were page boys at the wedding and they looked so handsome and did a smashing job!  

 

Harrison looked very handsome as well in the outfit he picked for himself which happened to match nicely with Mummy’s dress so then all we needed was a red tie for Daddy.

Having fun on the Cable Car.

Waterfall

Mummy (and her friend Kylee) grew up in a lovely small place called Waterfall.  We went to visit it and we played in the park around the corner from her old house.  The playground equipment has changed quite a lot!

 

This is the school Mummy and Kylee went to…Waterfall Public School.  There were only about 50 students and 3 teachers and Mummy loved it there.  It hasn’t changed much…even the bell is still the same – a teacher walking around with a hand bell!

 

Will runs across the oval.  It was fun seeing where Mummy lived and went to school, the little corner store and the post office.  It was a bit sad that the house Mummy grew up in has been knocked down and replaced but times change!
