Lakes Entrance


After travelling north east 250klms we arrived at Lakes Entrance after a pre-booked site was arranged at Eastern Beach Holiday Park.

What a great caravan park. I have been critical of them historically based on the populations within them and I don't feel it is real camping, additionally that I want time with the family without distractions from other kids. I have come to appreciate them more now because after travelling 5 months today in a tent on wheels with them, bring on the distractions!!

Tonight is free movie night (The Lorax) open air in the playground with $2 popcorn, tomorrow they have free plaster cast painting and there is a whiz bang jumping pillow also, all coupled with being positioned right on the beach. It really is a well run and kid focused park and gets a big tick from us.

We basically let the boys go bananas this afternoon, and watched them play from the comfort of our camp chairs directly in front of them. Nat did her 30 minute walk & I snuck in another 7k run so it was a good day.

The movie was great and it warms us to see the boys laughing so hard in unison at the screen. I am not convinced Mav knows entirely what is going on but if big bro laughs, it must be funny. Popcorn bags, in our beanies outside watching a movie, very cool.

Now we wait for the inevitability of how an 8:30pm bed time for Maverick will turn him into a monster tomorrow.

Jase.
