Wee holiday video

Hi there,

 

I never took photos when on our reccie in July but pulled together this wee video (19 minutes!).

 

We are on the Gold Coast for a week (surfers paradaise, theme parks). Then SA for the rest of the holiday. When we're driving around that's when we're in SA..Hallet's cove I think (eeeee..forgotten already)..and then when in the house that's Glenelg. We had a good apartment quite near the sea.

 

Then there's Barossa Valley (whispering wall, kangaroos). Then it's Largs Bay fishing..and the guy doing the kite boarding thingummy bobby. Victor Harbour..horse drawn tram..then Singapore. There's a few wee funnies in there..like my hubbie getting rag dolled by waves. Also, my son switched the camera on and filmed himself dancing..nobody else was there and there wasn't even any music!

 

Hope you enjoy (quality ok'ish..had to crunch right town to get it on the web)

Hi...I just noticed..the bit where me and Kieran in the bath...we had our swimming costumes on..honest.. lol.

 

Glad you enjoyed it. Maybe someone can properly identify where we're driving through...as not sure it is Hallet Cove.

 

Catch you later

Hi Carol Ann and family,

 

That was a good video, we were there in April, but after watching your escapades can't wait to get there again.

 

Can I ask what hotel you stayed in when you visited singapore as it looked nice, we are looking to do a few days stopover before starting our new life in Adelaide.

 

PS. nice to see more fellow scots on this site!

Hi Cornellia..no probs..we stayed at Changi Village Hotel..which is about 20 minutes away from city centre. Easy to get to via taxi though, and they are cheap as chips (the taxi..not the hotel..lol). The food and drink far cheaper the further you go from city anyways..so you win that way really.

 

Here's a link to where we stayed..it was lovely..the rooftop pool was brill!

Looks from your dates that we might hear about visa's roughly the same time. I'm hoping to hear end of February..but we won't move till after eldest son has sat his highers.

 

who knows..might meet up with you guys one day :D

 

Catch ya later

Hi Carol Ann

 

Watched your video it was great you all looked like you had a fantastic time. Jamie and I met with your hubby through Billy from SPS. It was really nice to put a face to the name. We can't wait to go to Adelaide in July really excited about it. Thanks for sharing your experiences with us they have been a big help. It would be great if we could meet up sometime in the future for drinks and lots of talk of Adelaide.

Hiya, Andrew said he really enjoyed the craic and you guys have got him all excited about going again..which is never a bad thing.

 

How long are you going for in July? Have you got somewhere to stay all sorted? we had only booked 2 days in Adelaide Hilton then had to find accommodation when we got there..which was a wee bit scary ... Andrew probably told you :-)

 

I'm always up for "drinks" so no problem there. Just say when and where :-)

 

Catch you later.

Hi Carol Ann, I so enjoyed watching that video. Really whet my appetite. Cant wait for my children to experience those things too. Soundtrack was great and the editing was really clever. Just want to say what a lovely family you have! Your boys look so well raised, confident and happy! Make sure to do us a moving in one when you arrive for us in the "queue". Thanks for sharing it with us. X Yvonne:wubclub:

Hiya..ooo..thanks for the kind words about my family..they're good lads..can play up at times..but on the whole..they are happy.

 

Your kids are at a great age though..they'll grow up in Oz really...what a life.

 

Still haven't heard about a CO..so still in the queue too :-( sigh.

 

I'm off to watch it again..lol..gets me all excited about it all :-)
