another fantastic place

Yesterday morning we went out to Maylands Waterland which is on the east side of the city and about 15 minutes from here.  It is an awesome fun water park for little people with lots of swimming pools, none of which are deeper than 0.7 metres.  The boys had such fun wading in the water and playing games.  There are waterfalls and fountains to play in and baby pools that are as shallow as 10cm or 30cm.  The little pools have shade cover over them so are really great for babies to play around in.  There are streams for racing Pooh sticks and lots of shady areas to picnic.  We thought we would be there for a couple of hours but spent most of our day there.  My friend and I sat in the deepest pool chatting with our hats and sunglasses on for most of the morning.  Hugo and his friends took breaks from the water to play on the many jungle gyms and play equipment.  It really is just good summer fun. 

My job is great on days like this!!

We were all really exhausted last night and woke up to face a 40 degree day!  The air conditioner is working overtime and we are staying in doors for most of the day, only sneaking out for a swim at Ondine's pool later and to check the boards at school to see which class the boys are in!
