Rooobe, Roooooobe, Sunlight come and me going to Robe (own version)

Last week (was it?) we went to Robe for 3 nights. We stayed in the "blue house" according to Darcy, which is quite clever considering the house was bright blue on the outside. Anyway, we had a great time relaxing. It was so nice having a gas heater and not having to build a fire! I was walking around in singlets because it was so hot in the house. We didn't do alot really. I spent all of about 45 minutes walking the main street of Robe "shopping" before driving back to our house. Our friends Bree and Mark headed up for 1 night which was nice. We spent thursday afternoon playing trivial pursuit, and I'm proud to say that Adam and I won, quite easily, much to Mark's disgust! LOL Thursday night we headed to the local pub for a meal which was great, they meals weren't cheap but HUGE! I certainly didn't need an entree of oysters before my fish 'n chips. The pokies were then calling me so I went and had a flutter, and won $20! Noice!

Darcy's new obsession is "Harry Popper". He would watch it all day and night if he could, and that's pretty much what he did in Robe. He had a few fishing moments with Adam, who quickly became frustrated when Darcy screamed the jetty down everytime Adam pulled the fishing line in and there was no fish attatched (and let me tell you, that was alot of times). We think maybe we'll wait until he understands a bit more about fishing before taking him again, he's certainly not the best fishing mate!
This is the kitchen in our house we stayed in. It was by far the best accomodation I think we have stayed in, and for an absolute bargain price too! This photo makes it look like Adam actually spent time in the kitchen, but let me assure you - he didn't.
This is the bedroom Adam and I had. I absolutely LOVE the colour scheme, and no I'm not being sarcastic, I loved it!
And this is by far my best acheivement yet - Darcy washing dishes. Not only did he WANT to wash dishes, but he screamed the North side of Robe down when we had finished. I can't wait to tell him that when he's 10 and crying the south of Adelaide down because he was asked to do the dishes.

I have my first clinical placement this week in a hospital in the far north. To say I'm crapping myself would be an understatement. I think I'll be fine, but my stomach hasn't been been very strong recently so I'm a bit worried about how I'll cope with 'smell's'. Let's just leave it at that.

Ok bye.
