Look who's happy after opening all his pressies!

This one might be a hit! Great choice!

Lovely family gathering over lunch and drinks in our backyard 

Jumping into the pool after lunch 

is becoming our Christmas tradition here.

This year we got a special treat... 

a dance performance by Hugh and Cupcake!

Fun-filled Xmas Eve

We started the day with a hearty breakfast outdoors.

Then we headed to the pool...

... to test out his new super jet floaty.

Lunch was burgers and fruit.

Afterwards we relaxed and watched some TV.

At night we visited the Gosford carnival

Their first ride was pure dizziness :)

Then they had a go on a giant trampoline!

He was afraid at first but once he got onto the trampoline...

no need for trundle bed

Somehow Cupcake ended up in Hugh's bed even though 

she was supposed to be sleeping on the lower bed :)

So these boys had some play time at Refuge Beach.

Our little friend had a go at steering the boat.

Day 3

The weather turned south so we decided to head back early.

Reptile Park with Cupcake and Isaac

On our way to the Reptile Park.

Ooooh...there's a red-bellied black snake!

A staff talking about an alligator.

These two shorties trying to get a good look 

at the wallabies.

Scenic World

We're doing the whole Scenic World shebang!

First we take the cableway down.

Oooh.... 52 degrees steep!

Then we took a 10-minute walk along the walkway 

and saw the Three Sisters from below.

We also got to compare the old railway with...

.... the new one which we rode uphill.

Finally we took the skyway across to another mountain 

at 270 m above ground.

We looked through the bottom glass windows 

and got wobbly knees :)
