We are on holiday at the beach so had a brilliant day. Up and straight to the beach where we swam and built the biggest sand castle ever, was taller than DD1, especially when she climbed and stood right on top of it. My dad literally bought a giant camping shovel that collapses and screws into place just for sand castle building, it is super effective. Then back to the pool for a swim. Then down the street for lunch. Then down to the rock pools where I managed to do not one but three cartwheels which everyone said they thought I couldn't. We found interesting things like crabs and shells and rocks, we played in the shallows and sand. Then we went for gelato and I had pink lemonade and lemon coconut tart flavours, they were glorious. Then back to the pool before dinner. Had sausages and salad. Then finished up our puzzle (kind of, two rogue pieces thanks to DD2 that are yet to be recovered lol) and now laying next to a sleeping DP after we managed to make the most of having our bed all to ourselves for the first night in forever. I'm laying all comfortable and spread out wondering if DD2 will stay in with DD1 all night or not.

Don't think any of us thought to mention it was Australia Day, it isn't something we grew up acknowledging. I do love the land, such a unique and diverse offering and I'm glad to have spent today out exploring it.
