Finally we make it to Geraldton and get the old tyres replaced including the one that was too big, put on by the dodgy crew in Cue. Now we have to wait for the parts to arrive at the caravan workshop to have it fixed. Needs a new oven, new awning, the wiring redone, the arch fixed and cupboards repaired. Quite a lot of damage.
The girls posing in the caravan park in Geralton. Sisterly love. This trip has really bonded us as a family.
Toby trying out his new floaty at Geraldton town beach. He just loves the water.
We then moved down to this cheaper caravan park south of Geraldton in the little town of Dongara whilst we wait for the parts to arrive for the caravan. Sea views.....just!
Kyra enjoying the pool there.
An evening drink at the Priory hotel in Dongara.
Steffi made a unique Advent calendar for the girls. A present every day tied up in individual orange bags with the date on up until the 24th December. Plus it's out of Toby's reach!
Posing for a Christmas family picture to be sent off with the Christmas cards we are busy making.

Finally the parts have arrived and I have taken our caravan in to be repaired in Geraldton. The lovely people from our caravan insurance company have put us up in this luxury apartment by the harbour in Geraldton with sea views, a spa bath and at last a dishwasher!
Enjoying breakfast on our balcony. Here for 10 days! Hoorah. We can move again after months of being cramped.
So off I go to buy a Christmas tree for our apartment which the girls just love decorating. I'll worry about getting it into the caravan later!
So much space and the girls have their own room downstairs with ensuite, kitchen and patio.
Chicken and kalamata olive slow cooker dish I made.

At the Christmas fair the girls had fun on this elastic jump. Kyra just about being launched into orbit as we looked nervously on!
Looking from the museum across the harbour to our apartment in Geraldton
I got up to go to toilet and when I got back I found my side had been taken! Sneaky thing!

The Sydney memorial, there to remember the 645 sailors who perished when the ship the HMS Sydney sunk in a World War 2 battle off the coast of Geraldton.
Our official Christmas photo in the apartment.
Our last night at the lovely apartment so we head down to the local harbour bar for an evening drink. Was a rather posh place.
