We left home on Sunday morning and arrived safely on the Sunshine Coast at about 10.30am. We went straight to the Caravan Park where we were to spend the first night and check straight and found our cabin.

It was a lovely little 2 bedroom cabin with a bathroom and kitchen facilities. Perfect!! Despite the weather being overcast and a tiny bit drizzly, of course, the kids wanted to try out the pool, so off they went. They said it was lovely because it is a heated pool.

We had to check out the following morning and then had a couple of hours to fill in before we could check in at the resort where we were booked for the rest of the week, so we went up to Buderim to visit some old friends who we haven't seen for quite a while, then we went and had fish & ships for lunch at the Mooloolaba Wharf.

Finally it was time to check in and the room we have is lovely. Overlooking the lagoon pool, it has 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, kitchen, laundry and a spa in the ensuite. (I think I might try this out later on today).

I went out late yesterday afternoon to do some grocery shopping for the week and the kids stayed at home with Rick for another swim. They were so excited, they couldn't stop giggling and sit still.

Rick cooked a lovely spaghetti bol. for dinner and then we all went for a walk around the complex.

We were all in bed nice and early - even me.

I was up at 4.30 this morning (because I went to bed so early) and Rick and the kids all woke up at about 5.30, we've had a nice early breakfast and start to the day.

Uh Oh!!!!! Rick just discovered that he can't find his new phone. We searched everywhere and suddenly he thought to check his shorts that I had just washed. Yep! It was in the pocket! Of course, it is my fault that it went through the wash! I did point out that he always leaves it on the bench top, and he told me before breakfast that his clothes needed to be washed. So, therefore, we are both at fault. Still doesn't make him any happier though - for a while. We'll just have to go to the Optus Shop and explain that we only just bought it a few days ago and if there is any chance of getting it replaced.

Oh Dear! I think that we'll both be a lot more careful with the washing in the future.
