We spent our weekend camping; a first for Jon and the girls, and us as a family. The weekend ended too soon! Needless to say, we enjoyed our time!
We stayed at a holiday park right near Dicky Beach and were assigned a wonderfully shady spot, close to the amenities but private enough at the same time. Considering a lot of the spots were in the full sun, we felt very blessed indeed. Especially when we had to set up the tent at two in the afternoon!
Thankfully I had packed a fry pan and various utensils, as we discovered the kitchen facilities much more basic than we expected! Fortunately, Jon's grandma lives nearby and we were able to borrow a couple of plates and store our cold food in her fridge.
While we stayed right next to the beach, we only went to it once. It was just too hot to be on the beach! And Abigail was somewhat scared of the ocean (Sarah, however, went straight on in!). There was, however, a great playground nicely shaded by trees that the girls enjoyed.
It was lovely to be able to see Jon's Grandma each day too, and share meals with her. Before we headed home again, she took us out for a lovely meal at the RSL.
(Excuse the quality - this one was snapped on Jon's phone)
We look forward to many more camping adventures in the future!
