Tasmania zoo

Sleep-in first...well after most of us didn't fall asleep till after midnight, I think we deserved a lazy start to the day.  Thankfully both Lucas and Kyla slept really well after they fell sleep at about 1030pm!  They slept so well that their snoring kept the others awaks and Kirilee ended up giving up and crashing on living room couch!
So after a lazy start and a load of hand-washing (no washing machine here so I figure a hand-load a day should do it) we headed to Dad and Mum's for a coffee break (greatly needed after the hand washing, except tea sufficed for me :)).  Then, after stopping at the supermarket to buy some bits and pieces for lunch, we headed to the Tasmania zoo. Sure, less fancy than those big zoos like the Perth one, but so much better to see the animals in.  The lions and monkeys especially were awesome!
Headed back to the supermarked to stock up for the weekend, and to a secondhand store to find a jumper for Lucas (yep, forgot one of those for the poor little guy.  Hey, wasn't on the list, ok, and it didn't register to pack one when I read 'clothes' on his list).  Could only find a Richmond one, much to Andrew's disgust.  But, hey, there was no Kmart there and we were in desperate need, and that calls for desperate measures.
Back home for  dinner at 7 and finally have some littlies in bed at 9:30pm.  Here's hoping they're snoring soon (but not too loudly tonight :) or others may not sleep so well!
Goodnight!

This morning we went to Legana church. Stephen 'tHart was preaching there and he was there with his whole family (excepting Mim) and uncle Len as well. So we chatted to them and others after church including Rita's brother and his lovely wife. We nice chatting to different people. Between church services we went to Dad and Mum's for coffee and a delicious lunch. .... And for some necessary shut eye 😀 As they don't have crèche in the afternoons in Launceston, Andrew stayed home with Kyla in the afternoon, and Dad and Mum jumped in the car with me to go to church. We had another wonderful sermon from Pastor Wes and I chatted with a few people after church. The Pots were also there as were Richard and Lyn and family.

Last day

We spent our last morning in Tasmania cleaning and packing. Andrew took the the youngest to go and wash and dry two large loads of washing at the laundromat. Shiana and I stayed home and packed and cleaned. We had some lunch at home (finishing up some leftovers) and then headed to Dad and Mum's for Kyla to sleep. While she slept the rest of us went to the Launceston entertainment complex for some trampolining, laser tagging and other fun... Then we went back to Dad and Mum's for a delicious roast dinner with Suzanna and the kids as well. Dad and Mum hope to be at the airport tomorrow morning, but Suzanna and the kids can't... So we said our goodbyes to them. Poor Lucas had to go sit in the car to hide the fact that he had big tears in his eyes. He especially enjoyed his time playing with his cousin Lachlan which was really special. More goodbyes tomorrow... He's not going to like that... But then, neither do any of us. Goodbyes are never nice, but w...

Ashlyn and Lucas and Lachlan really wanted to go back to the swimming pool today, but we first decided to attend a couple of hours in City Park and have a picnic lunch there too. It was a lovely day for that. Poor Kyla managed to fall and do a face plant, consequently ending up with a scraped nose..  Then I dropped them off at the swimming pool while Shiana and I dropped Kyla off for a sleep at Dad Mum's. Once she was asleep, Shiana and I headed out for a spot of shopping. Shiana bought quite a few bargains before we went back to pick up the swimmers. After that we headed to Riverside motel for a meal with Dad and Mum age Suzanna and the kids. $16 mains are a bit hard to resist 😀
