Dreamworld

Today Koboshi went to Dreamworld to visit his dad who has been working there on Sundays for Big Brother.






He also got to meet some of the evicted Big Brother House mates - he wasn't starstruck at all



The Big Brother Studios with people lining up to get their photo taken with the house mates. K is down there making sure everyone behaves...




Meeting the wildlife. He liked the kangaroos a lot



Despite looking very serious - we had a great time!!!

Other stuff we did in May

Another picnic in the park ...

Ka, Koboshi and Auntie A spent a beautiful Autumn afternoon in a nearby park having a picnic.


Ka and Koboshi on a blanket enjoying the day.



Ka, Koboshi and A under a beautiful blue sky.




Koboshi loved meeting and spending time with his Auntie A (He can't wait to see her again in Switzerland at Xmas.)


Birthday lunch for Ka at the Sheraton at the Gold Coast

Ka's had a special birthday this year as she was able to spend it with her sister A. We went to the Sheraton Mirage Resort on the Gold Coast for a spectacular sea food buffet to celebrate her birthday. (We like to eat here on every special occassion.)


The entrance to the Sheraton and the view out to the pool and the ocean behind.



Koboshi deciding whether he will eat or sleep, and the two lovely sisters after our meal.


And celebrating Kas birthday at home with the family.


Ka's second birthday meal, dinner at our place with D and M. Ka blowing out the candles (I don't think we have enough!)


Time to say goodbye to A....
After a great 3 and a bit weeks it was time for A to go back home to Switzerland to work and study. Saying goodbye is always sad but we had a ball having her stay with us.


At the airport, filling in the customs form



The crew at the airport - minus Sven. And A's last goodbye as she heads to board the plane.

We have had a fantastic time with A and we can't wait to welcome her in our castle again..... and even better seeing her in Switzerland in a little over 5 months!!!!

Sven's big day out!

On Sunday it was Sven's biggest day of the year: the RSPCA Million Paws Walk in Brisbane.


The crew is in the car, ready to go - Sven to the MPW and Koboshi to see his grandma.






At the starting point where hundreds of dogs wait for the walk to commence. I think we are still a few paws short.





We are on our way... together with about 3000 other dogs and their owners!






It was a perfect day for a walk - K, A and Sven enjoyed it heaps!!!




A little drink break along the way




After the walk. Sven was exhausted - more from the excitment then from the 3km walk...



Sven enjoys a cuddle with auntie A



Tired and happy! And finally the centre of attention! Only 364 days to go until the next MPW!!!

Picnic in the park

Koboshi was out and about again today. This time for a picnic in a beautiful bushland park nearby. Also with us was his auntie A who is visiting us from Switzerland.





It was a fantastic day - the weather was great, the wildlife was friendly and the company was outstanding!




Koboshi spent the afternoon reading some books with his auntie and chewing some strange blue sheep...



Well, goodbye for now - we have had a great day and we hope you enjoyed looking at our pictures!
