We headed inland a bit to Shannon National Park, home to some huge Karri trees. The campground had a water boiler, so we stoked the boiler and all had hot showers - was so lovely and hot.

We had such a lovely mid winter festival, we had made paper lanterns and walked through the forest singing up a storm. As a special treat Ross lit a firework, only the firework was a bit better - longer and much louder than both of us had expected, lucky there was no one else around for miles - v exciting for the boys!!
