Roosting in the Chookpen

Well here you are, the travel agency you should book all your travel through.We had finally decided to book a trip to Bali for Christmas. Trev really wanted to spend Christmas overseas again for a change, it is a long time since we did that. I would really have preferred Penang, but Vicki and Travis said they were going to Penang, so Bali it was, as we didn't want to intrude in their holiday. We're staying at Sanur because it is much cheaper and also quieter there.They, the hotels, all charge like wounded bulls at Christmas time but OK, all these things are mostly a "last time". We're also flying Jetstar to save some money so will have to bring a thermos and packed lunch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So, we get to Karen and guess what, Vicki & Trav have already booked,where? Bali!!!! Well , can't be helped because we had it all worked out as being affordable and I guess that is why they also decided on Bali.They'll get a surprise or is there such a word as DE-prise when we see them. At least we are in different hotels so we won't be under their feet at all.Karen had brought us lots of brochures of all areas around Aus. but she has worked long hours as has Maureen, since their staff left , so we don't actually see much of her. Jacquie comes in to give them a day of rest and business is still good , despite the economic downturn, which is wonderful for them.

Later today we are minding Caitlyn because Vicki and Travis are going to Cirque de Soleil tonight and like the rest of the kids, they usually overnight in Perth in a hotel.

Have just taken the girls here to dancing because Rick and Trev have gone to Ikea to get a wardrobe we saw there yesterday and would be good for our house. They were coming off their list of products so we could not wait till the house is finished. Thanks to Scott and Jo it is now stored at their house.He already has our floortiles, Trev's teapot collection ,our big TV and antique clocks. Would not know what we would have done without our kids at this time.

There is also a picture of Snugglepot and Possum roosting on top of their cage. They were there with the three of them which hopefully means our little girls are growing up and the eggs won't be very long in coming.
