Dutch tall ships & school excursion

29th august, that afternoon we had a great afternoon and got to have a look through 2 of the 3 dutch tall ships that are in Adelaide for the tall ship Festival of maritime trade, and this is the first time in 100 years these ships have been to Australia

oosterschielde is one of the 2 we got to have a private tour over, these ships and almost 100 years old and restored to former glory, but with some modern added luxuries,
this day was thanks to Childhood Cancer Association...
we also shared our story with the local paper and they took our photo, alex was scared but she did well in the end 
the story was slightly wrong though as it said all children were still going through treatment but they were all 2+ years off treatment!

on Monday 2nd September,  I got to go with both girls with their school excursion, it was also part of my studies to finish cert 3 educational support, no job prospects as most is volunteer work but a start :)
we went by train then to the university of SA and the planetarium was a great day but very long,
now I can relax as finished my studies and can look at other things with my beautiful Family




Remember to wear GOLD for Childhood Cancer Awareness this month ♥


Remember we are doing the 3km walk in the City to Bay this weekend (15th September) for Camp Quality and will be walking with mr Giggles himself (hubby).
we have raised a little ($91. ) but its a start and even that is something towards a great cause :)
