Sooooo, this week we’ve been up to Tropical Queensland.  We stayed in the beautiful Port Douglas at the Rendezvous Resort http://www.rendezvoushotels.com/port_douglas/.  It was a 3.5 hour flight from Sydney; however, it felt like a totally different country.  A sort of Thailand meets Bali.  With surrounding rain forest and sea tempertures around 26 degrees, tis a ‘super put pounds on’, ‘lay by beach’, ‘see some fish’, holiday.  Smashing!

So this week we see the arrival of my dear mum.  Picked her up from the airport last Wednesday on blistering, 34 degree sunny day.

Also we had Katherine and James’s wedding party at the Harbour View hotel.  Was great to see them both returned to syders safe and happy.
