Hey guys.

Today we went on the dolphin watch cruise, and the beach to have lunch. First we went on the dolphin cruise. It was awesome. There were lots of dolphins. On the back of the boat was a net called a boom net. The net was lowered into the water, and we were allowed to sit on the net. There was also a water slide on the back. Andrew went on the slide 10 times. The boom net and the slide were really good fun, although it hurt you bottom a bit. Next we went to Soldiers Point to have lunch. We decided to swim at the cabin instead. When we got back Mum watched New Moon and Andrew built huts out of twigs. Thanks

Today we went to Wet and Wild. When we got there, we went to Calypso Beach to put our stuff down. First Andrew and I went around the island in the inflatable ring. It was really fun. Next we went to the Tornado Ride. The Tornado ride is a massive half pipe thing. It is my favorite ride in the whole park. There were massive lines for some of the lines, so we had to wait for a while. Andrew, Mum, and I went on a slide called Mach 5. It was awesome. The Mach 5 is a slide where you pretty much fall at a very steep angle. Andrew and I went on some of the other slides, like the Twister, the Speedcoaster, and the Aqua Racer.

Today we went to the standing stones, a gem museum, and an arsenic mine. First we relaxed a little bit this morning and watched tv. Just before lunch we went to the Standing Stones.

After that we went back to the cabin and had lunch. Then we went for a drive up to the museum in Emma Ville. The gem museum was pretty cool. They had a few historical items out the back and lots and lots of gem stones and metels. Andrew bought some crystals, they look really cool. Next we drove to the arsenic mine and had a look around.

Hey guys.

Today we went fossicking. First we went and got our equipment from Nundle. Then we drove to the fossicking place, and looked for a spot. We tried a few different spots, but eventually went to where Dad was, and started fossicking there. We didn't find very much, but Dad found a few flecks of gold and a crystal. After we had finished fossicking we returned the equipment, and went up to Hanging Rock. The views were amazing. We could see all the mountains in the distance. We didn't bring the camera so we don't have any photos.

Thanks

Hey guys.

Today we went to the Chinese festival at Nundle. When we arrived there, there was some people doing a dragon dance. It was pretty cool. There were all sorts of arts and food stalls there. We browsed the stalls until lunch. Andrew had noodles, and the rest of us had sandwiches. Mum bought a steamed pork bun. It was really tasty. We continued looking in stalls until there was no more stalls to look at. After that we walked up to the gold mine and did some fossicking practice for when we go out panning on Monday. I found some gold ^^. It was only a few specks. It was good practice though. I enjoyed it. Today was really cool.

Cya, and happy Easter for tomorrow ^^
