Our weekend away was OK but Lex's youngest sproglet broke her foot the night before the trip. They spent all Friday morning in A & E and all the little one could talk ask was, "Are we still going camping?" so we did. She was so upset that she couldn't go off and play with the others. We did the glass bottom boat stuff then peg-leg could see the fish, then went snorkelling. It was nice but I don't get the whole snorkelling/diving fascination... seen one of each fish, then seen them all. There wasn't a lot of colour under the water but there were these amazing blue coloured fish.
Ok, so camping I can do... but the laundry afterwards! Sheesh. That's the 4th load that's gone in today. All the bedding has been changed and the duvet inners put back into their liners. I took them out as the weather had been so hot but it's started to cool now. Not enough to send the cicadas running though. The noise those buggers make is maddening; no really, I mean it. I truly believe it could send a person crazy. Click here and have a listen. Now, multiply that by a gazillion and you have an idea of what I'm talking about.
Not a lot going on today really, or tomorrow as I have to take Sproglet A to school early. He is on a waterwise programme at school so is going sailing (!) and Sproglet B is off to the beach for a Kindy field trip. That'll mean even more laundry *groan*.

When you run so fast to get somewhere
you miss the fun
of getting there.
Life is not a race,
so take it slower,
hear the music before the music is over, take your time and stay happy...
