Rocci - getting used to life in jail.
Robbie - doing his best to be evil and agro.
Rocci - on a ride all by himself.
Robbie - strongest man in the world.
Yesterday the boys and I went to Dreamworld and we took cousin Kody who is the same age as Robbie. School holidays are the perfect time to go for us, but, it is also the best time for the rest of Australia. And believe me, everyone was there. Theme parks for adults are confusing places, do we feel joy or pain? I was littered with all sorts of emotions during the day, like, Confusion about the map - Exhaustion from standing - Hunger (junk food city) - Dehydration (very hot day) - Dizziness (having to go on every ride with Rocci) - Boredom (standing in lines) and just plain old muscle pain from carrying food and water all day. We waited in lines for hours and hours, it was very hot and I recommend that in future all stinky people should go to the water park instead. The great part was that Robbie is old enough to walk around on his own (with his cousin), so I only had to be with Rocci. My lovely boys kept checking to see that I was 'having fun' and I did my best to pretend it was the best day ever. The truth is, on the trip home we stopped in at IKEA and had a nice healthy, clean meal, a cup of tea, and a bit of shopping. That was the best part of the whole day. But if the boys ask, the best bit was when Rocci went on the last ride of the day all on his own and I got to watch his excitement, he went on it 3 times and screamed with delight till he was hoarse. Everyone like to hear screams of delight. But, please let that be the end of rides forever for me.
