We rented this cheap little trailer home (advertised as a cabin) on an RV site. It was so cheap and the kids thought it was the funnest place they have ever slept. Kids are the best! Easily satisfied.
This little rectangle "cabin" had a queen bed, triple bunks, a mini-kitchen, a table and a bathroom. Everything you need, who's complaining? Obviously not these guys.
When we checked in they gave us a free movie, and a bag of feed to feed the goats and pakas (which are just like llamas.) The kids also loved this.
The next morning we woke up to heavy fog at the bottom of the valley. After a bakery breakfast (I'm going to miss bakeries when we come back to the US!) we drove up the mountains to go to a waterfall hike. (No strollers this time!) We stopped along the way up the mountain and took these pictures of the valley and the fog below.
The next day we spent at Jervis Bay, a couple hours down the coast south of Sydney.
Jervis Bay is in the Guiness Book of World Records for having the whitest sand in the world....who knew?
We took a whale watching cruise. They advertised they had seen three whales the day before, and even though it was very very early in the whale watching season, we decided to take our chances. We did see a whale! We saw it three times, about 1 second each time. Too quick for a picture. Too bad. They say in June-August, it is great. The humpback whales in particular stay up at the surface for a long time. We had fun anyway!
A fun weekend. It sometimes feels weird to plan vacations by ourselves, make the hotel reservations, pay for the hotel, decide where we want to go. It makes me feel like a real adult. We love our little vacations we get to take with our family.
