Easter

Rabbits and chickens and chocolate eggs. Hat parades and hot cross buns and a carrot 

for the Easter Bunny.

Traditionally fish (seafood) for Good Friday. Eggs in the salad, naturally. 

Old-fashioned Easter Ducks, like the kind I got when I was a child.

Chocolate cake and morning tea with friends. Easter egg hunting.

Hot cross bun baking and a bunny book (well, a white hare really) - How did the Easter Bunny know that we were learning about France this month!?

I can't believe that Easter and the school holidays are over already. 

Some things did not go to plan, but... the Easter Bunny came and he/she brought chocolate and gifts. The kids were happy and that is all that really matters.

I hope that you and your family had a happy Easter too.

Our Easter break away

On Good Friday, we set up tables and chairs here (above) and enjoyed lots (and I mean lots) of fresh, local prawns and a huge salad. White white and this view. The children made new friends and we lost the afternoon scrambling over rocks at the waters edge. Collecting shells, chasing little crabs and catching baby shrimp in the rock pools.









Over the weekend we enjoyed magical weather, more beach, water parks, markets, bike rides, walks along the pier, playgrounds and museums.









The Easter Bunny found us at Dad's house, delivering not only chocolate but new books and warm winter pajama's. After breakfast, our traditional easter egg hunt began. Leaving our hunting baskets at home, we found that ice-cream containers do the job perfectly.
