New friends in Noosa

25-2-2010 (Thursday)

Relax days in Noosa. Most of the morning we stayed in the pool. The others were also in the pool, we had a enjoyable morning. Sharai was kissing with Dean again!!. And she calls him “Jommetjes” Boy in dutch (=jongetje). She tells Sharon that she likes to give a kiss to the jommetje…. Very sweet; we make fun about it all the time.

Sharon went to a top spa in the afternoon. Ruben and the kids went out for ice cream.
We called and skyped Hester for her birthday today. Dinner in and a couple of movies for the evening. Shrek for the kids and Angels and Demons for us.

Another relaxed day in Noosa. We planned a bbq tonight together with George/Simone and Marc/Ilde and off course our kids.
After our morning swim, Ruben did some groceries for the BBQ and Sharon stayed in with Sharai sleeping and Zeb relaxing.

BBQ was really nice, George bbqed and took care of the meat. We had meat for the whole apartment building. The food and the company were great. The kids were great together; watched some movies (Shrek, Madagascar ect) and played. Not one little fight; they’ve all been sweet.
To bad they are all leaving tomorrow.

Our friends from Sydney and Melbourne left today, too bad. They left us a lot of left overs, so we have a loaded fridge for the next month ;-).

Most of the day we took easy, swim, stroll on Hastings street and for Sharai a afternoon swim.

Tonight we went to a Purim party of the Jewish Community of Sunshine coast. We found out they only exist officially for 2 years. We got their contact details through the Brisbane KH office.
Zeb was dressed up as a Brazilian soccer player and Sharai as Princess Fiona (shrek character) in black and she was dressed like her mommy.

The part was in Maroochy a 40 minute drive from here and it was pouring rain. Ruben did a great job driving the family, cause once we said already: when it rains….it really, really rains and we were driving a 2 lanes road; It was damned scary.
We met a Dutch guy, Paul Hymans, he is originally from The Hague, he is married to an Israeli woman. We also met a Dutch girl the chairman Gary Meyer and some other nice people.
We think there were around 100 people, everybody brought food and drinks (we took chickens and drinks).
They prepared a play, told the story of the Megilla and had a dress up competition. The kids loved the cookies and cakes.
