It’s summer, so we spend lots of time at or around the water. Having a pool makes a big difference, and so does having summer holidays.
RJ is a cool character while swimming.
Here’s a few water related moments from the past month.
RJ: I like my big kid swimming lessons.
Dad: Really? What do you like the best?
RJ: I like the diving board.
Dad: Why’s that?
RJ: It’s just like walking the plank.
We took a bit of a break last week and head off to the Southwest. It was very relaxing and the weather was just fantastic. The days were filled with horse riding, beach trips, exploring and even a couple of fishing trips.
Grammy and Poppa were there with the Melbourne cousins for the first couple of days, but couldn’t stay the whole time.
Grammy, LR, RJ and Daddy checked out Ngilgi cave. This huge room is called the amphitheatre and has great accoustics (especially for people who appreciate yelling children).
RJ: Mum says I can go swimming with the whale sharks.
Dad: Okay then. We might have to wait a while to get there.
RJ: Yes. I am a good swimmer now. I’m very fast.
Dad: That would be lots of fun.
RJ: And there will be a great white shark there too.
Dad: Uh oh. Not good. Wouldn’t he eat you?
RJ: No. I’m bringing my toy one. He wants to meet the whale sharks too. But I need help.
Dad: What kind of help?
RJ: I need to make a rope so he can swim along with me. Let’s try with paper and some tape.
