Cairns for Nana's 85th Birthday

At the end of May we had a lovely few days in Cairns and, although it rained every day which was very much needed, we enjoyed being with family and celebrating Nana's 85th birthday.
 

Cousins Jimmy and Chloe had a great time with Jack and Meg and spent hours playing together or just lounging about on the hammock on the wonderful surround verahdah.

Meg wanted the hammock all to herself and kept pushing everyone off

.... the nearly two's aren't that good at sharing.

 

We went to Palm Cove for an ice-cream and a play on the swings.
Meg loves the slides as well and had a ball.
Jack, unfortunately, isn't much into having his photo taken at present.

 

Jack, Jimmy and Chloe had a great game of chess with large pieces.
Nana and Meg enjoyed putting them away in their proper places.

Meg loves being read to and Nana was more than happy to oblige

with a book about an exciting Wiggles adventure on a windy day.

Lucky, the gorgeous little dog, was a hit with Meg and they

played together constantly. Meg is here with Sandra, Chloe and Lucky.
