Today we went to the beach and built a teepee. We made it out of big sticks and hay. It was really hot. Then mummy came and then we went to have tea. Then we came back and watched the sunset with hot chocolate and marshmallows!

- rollerskating around vases
- people on silks hanging and they twirled around
- 10 people on a bike
- 4 people on motorbikes going around a steel ball
- a dog
Sam and I got on stage. I got on top of a human pyramid and Sam did skipping.
Kayaking on Lake Wanaka
Today we went kayaking. The water was clear and cold. It was fun but it made my arms ache. We saw mountains and the Wanaka tree.
Queenstown to Wanaka
Today we left Queenstown and drove to Arrowtown. We saw where Chinese miners lived when they were mining for gold. We also had a chocolate ice cream which was very nice.
We carried on driving and stopped at Cromwell for lunch. We went to a park and a play area and played in the sand and water.
We then drove on to Wanaka. We had sausages for tea. We then walked along the lake. When we got back to our holiday park it was really late.
Mooloolaba Beach
Today we went to a different beach from yesterday called Mooloolaba Beach. We played and surfed in the waves and stayed there all afternoon. It was fun!
Alexandra Headland Beach
Today we went to Alexandra Headland and me, Sam and daddy swam in the huge waves. We jumped the waves. Sometimes I crashed in to daddy’s feet.
Yanchep National Park, koalas and kangaroos
Today we left Lancelin and drove to a national park. We had a picnic and then we saw 5 koalas and 1 mum kangaroo and 1 joey.
The koalas were asleep in the eucalyptus trees. They were cute but they didn’t move very much.
Then we walked down to the lake and saw two kangaroos.
