Yes, we did get up at this ridiculous hour - only to find one of them had been awake for over three and a half hours
And then after some time watching a DVD Christmas present it was off to bed - thank goodness!!
Boxing Day - and it was decided to take it a bit easier so we went to the zoo. Still 40 degrees and everything is very hot including our drinking water - not good, in fact very bad - tastes horrible!! We saw some interesting animals as well as the usual ones, like a Tree Kangaroo, a Monitor, an enormous Tortoise over one metre in length, Red Pandas, a Quokka - look it up, - and hot Children and Hotter Grandparents!
When we got home - guess what - the pool again. Dinner, DVD, bed - YES.
Today is a bit cooler only 37 degrees - I'm at home, Suzanne is shopping and the rest of them .........................No not the pool, they are on the beach.
We hope you had a great Christmas and are looking forward to the New Year and hopefully some better weather.
