Queensland Trip

Now that Chris is finished with work in Canberra, we're all going on a 3 week vacation to Queensland. Here's a map of Australia.



We lived in Canberra (in the southeast corner of the map). Queensland is the north east territory. We drove up to the Brisbane area (2 day drive), and are starting our vacation about an hour north of Brisbane. Then we'll drive about an hour south of Brisbane for about 5 days. Then we'll fly up to Cairns (it's a little north of Townsville) for 6 days. Once we're back from Cairns, we'll start the drive back to Canberra to take care of a few things and then it's back to the US for us!

Our first day in Queensland was a relaxing beach day. Morning playing on the beach, and afternoon checking out playgrounds on the beach.

Happy boy at the beach! He loves to eat sand and army-crawl into the waves. Emily refused to touch the sand until just recently. Funny how different they are :).

She was a little nervous at first, but now she will run right into the water on her own :)
