Camping

Camping

over the Anzac day long weekend, 3 families from kinder went camping. as a family we have never been camping before. it was a new and exciting experience. the two families we went with are experienced campers and each have a van. we were in a caravan park, so it wasn't bush camping but for my big button, that as he has got older prefers the comforts of hotels, it was still an interesting exercise. we had great fun

the weather was predicted to rain the whole time we were away, but it held off until the last night.
the whole experience was fantastic. my kids loved it riding their bikes all day, 100 metres from the beach, running in the waves, swimming, playing together ALL day and outside. it was such healthy fun. my boys absolutely loved it. they were so happy. there wasn't one grizzle from Archie the whole weekend, he was having too much fun.

in the first hour on friday morning Hugo had taken his training wheels off and had mastered his bike. after a couple of little falls, and some i=encouragement from Harry he was unstoppable.
i even had a surf for the first time ever on saturday. apparently the conditions were bad but we had heaps of fun. i caught a couple of waves and even managed to stand up !!!
all the kids were in bed early and the adult had a great time, getting to know each other better and shairng many stories and laughs. it was one of the best weekends i have had for a long time
