Thierings on Tour

Everyone was up early (but happy) so we took off for a walk & scooter ride along the foreshore. Scarly is getting so proficient at riding and she loves it! The two older girls started jogging and covered a lot of ground running ahead and then coming back to us.

We had a play at a playground and grabbed mama some caffeine fuel for the morning. By the time we came back from our “quick” walk everyone was starving, so we cooked egg wraps and planned our day.

Just as we wanted to head out to Adelaide Markets the auto electrician called and said he could be out within half an hour. He changed the pin plug on the car and recommended we do the same on the trailer (he just didn’t have a spare with him) and all the pins were getting light and power to them. Phew! 

By that stage it was time to go to our cookie decorating activity, one of the many organised activities at the campsite for the kids. The girls loved it and since it was the weekend they even got to eat them before lunch – mama is feeling frivolous.

Driving to the markets was a bit of a pain as there were so many roadworks and diversions, plus parking in the city with a car that needs high clearance is always a challenge, but we got there and I was so excited to eat some yummy food. The girls were a magnet to the sushi, they also tried some delicious chicken wings and dumplings. Meanwhile I got some paella and of course it would have been rude not to have cake!

There were some tired girls after this, but a quick rest in the car meant they were ready for the pool as soon as we got back. Not sure just how heated it’s meant to be, as it didn’t feel it to me… even the girls didn’t last too long to be honest, but they did make progress on their front flips into the pool.

There was an outdoor screening of Paw Patrol, the bouncy pillow and they asked to go for an afternoon scooter ride. By the end of it, I was exhausted too from an action packed day…

Back at camp we cooked tacos with a view and felt grateful for such a beautiful and fun day together! My bed and my heart were full.
