Caitlyn: Day 1 "Kookaburra, Kangaroos, The Warf and Shell Collecting"

Our first morning we went to the bakery for breakfast mum, nana suzanne, Hannah and I went down to explore the beach and shops, they had a swiss bakery and we stopped for some goodies.. mmmm. we strawberry and caramel tarts and an apple turnover to take back to my dad. I was excited to visit there alot during our stay.

When my dad was eating his apple turnover he wandered in to the bush in the back yard, there are lots of kookaburras and kangaroos. There were some in the yard and he tried to get close to them, they hopped away pretty fast.

The Warf

My cousins came over to play and we went out to explore this town Tathra more. We went to the warf, it was big, I watched my dad climb down a ladder and touch the water, he said it was cold.

 I love hanging out with my cousin Ellie.

It was lunch time so we had fish and chips on the beach, and ginger beer. I looooove fish and chips. I love the food in Australia.

Ginger Beer

we went and collected shells and found a piece of jelly fish... it was just like a lump of jelly.

Caitlyn: Dec 12th 2011-- "Getting to Australia"

I am ready to leave for Vegas!

My adventure to Australia began on Monday. After we got home from school we got into comfy clothes because mom said we were going to be travelling a long way.
We drove all teh way to Vegas and waited in the airport to get on the flight. I fell asleep in the car, it was past my bedtime and I was tired. My dad had to wake me up to get me out of the car, we had to wait in the airport , here is a picture of me, I was tired and not too happy. Our plane didn't leave until midnight.

Finally we got on the airplane, I liked the TV on there. I could watch whatever I wanted. They gave me a bag with a blanket and books and a funny looking zebra. I watched the lion king.

I was happy once I got on the plane

I sat next to my dad, I could look out the window and see all the clouds.

It was a long time flying, we stopped in Korea and then finally landed in Australia.
