A bit of this and that

This morning we headed into Launceston to the city park where we firstly checked out the monkeys. They were very active when we watched them which was really cool and meant we watched them for quite a while.

 Then Andrew and Shiana and Lucas and Kyla went on a Thomas ride and they got to sit in the driver's seat afterwards.




Then it was time for a quick play in the park..


Then we headed home for lunch and Kyla headed to bed for a sleep. While she slept and Andrew babysat, the rest of us headed up the hill to the top dam (about a 10min walk) and had a lovely swim there (the biggest problem being getting in though the  sloshy gooey mud. But it was good.



Then we headed to Dad and Mum's for a delicious dinner, and we spent a few hours there before heading home.

There had been a fairly small bush fire on a farm that we travelled past on our way home and the firemen were still mopping up.

    The monkeys were missing from the park when we went to look at them. Glad you got to enjoy them!

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.

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 😀
