    Bon voyage, Granny!

    If you make a new friend on the flight, maybe they'd take a 'photo of your meeting with DD to record her surprise? :)

    Have the most wonderful time - we'll be looking forward to hearing about all your adventures! :T

    Thanks Robin & Beanie

    Arrived safe and having a fab time. Currently enjoying the views and sunshine while my beautiful DD is doing her 2nd yoga class of the day. I'm sitting this one out

    She was really pleased but told me off for keeping it quiet :)

    We've had a lovely day today which ended with me seeing a koala up close, was a fantastic sight

    Hope you're all having a good Sunday. I'm off to bed soon as I've been awake since 4:30am as we had an early start for our yoga day
