The big 3-0 was celebrated here in Dubbo on Wednesday. That's right a new decade has begun for Laura. The day was celebrated with Rozzy and Jono starting with pancakes, maple syrup and presents (yeah TimTams, Blow up Aussie Flip-Flop, and Sumo Thumb Wrestlers - Thanks Linds). Then it was off to try and do some mini-putting. The only thing was that the place was closed as it hadn't stopped raining for the past 3 days and so that course was just too wet.
We went for some thickshakes at Wendy's in the mall and enjoyed some lunch Canada style - Sponge Bob Square Pants grilled cheese, ketchup (not tomato sauce), and dill pickles. What a great lunch.
For dinner we went out to Hog's Back which is kinda like Montanas (no free refills though). It was a great time with the Kelly's.
Thursday was spent hanging out with Rozzy's sister-in-law Sarah and her three kids Charlet (4), Amelia (2), and Alex (2). We took them to swimming class in the morning and then Sarah and Laura tried out Zoomba. What a great way to exercise! It's easy to follow moves with a Latin rhythm. A lot of hip swiveling which I'm sure Laura looked like a fool doing as she can't rotate her hips.
After the gym we headed to Sarah's place to play with the kids and hang out. Roz picked us up to head to her place for a quick feed and then it was off to the Dubbo Christian School for a Thanksgiving Concert (singing, being thankful, and carols). We loved the pictures of the kids cause it made us think we were watching a movie filmed in Englad with them all in their little uniforms.
Friday was aqua-arobics (way more intense than Zoomba), packing for our Adelaide trip, staying out of the down pour (though Laura's clothes didn't), and then off to celebrate Emily's birthday by having take-out and watching the Voyage of the Dawn Tredder.
It was a great week in Dubbo. We're looking forward to our next adventure in Adelaide.
