Four beach visits in two days

We are in Merimbula.

The EIGHT HOUR DRIVE to get here was fine. Unbelievable. We stopped off for a wee and a run around at Trudi's aunt and uncle's place in Traralgon. I had not met Grethe and John before. They are very kind and Grethe gave me some plum jam, plus we ate some banana-and-coconut cake. The girls went mad running up and down their carpeted hallway. Considering installing a carpeted hallway at our place.

We had another stop at a park in Orbost, and then pressed on. The girls were marvels. Ivy had two short naps, and Hazel had three! But they could not get to sleep at night. They were way too exhausted and keyed up. They both were finally asleep by 9pm.

Trudi and I are plum tuckered out. We have a lie-down when the girls have their after-lunch nap. Lunch is at 11.30am these days, because they are pink-eyed and weepy by then, and have to nap at midday.

The girls have tiny little wetsuits. They are size 0.5.
