Day 75 Yeppoon

Well our second day in Yeppoon started very early with all the kids up at about 6am for young Jovi's birthday. Carrie (Jovi's mum) had been up at 4.30am I think to put up balloons and streamers in the BBQ area. Then there was the kite flying on the beach to test out one of the birthday presents. And cake at about 8am would you believe.

After all that we headed off to the Yeppoon marina and a national park on the point which provided some great views. The kids needed some encouragement to get up the hill so I stripped a thin branch of leaves and whipped them just a little bit.



On the opposite side of the point to the marina there was a nice beach so we were compelled to have a swim and search for shells

On the way home we stopped at a shell exhibition, where Richie bought a stingray barb as a souvenir.

Once back at camp there was the main birthday present - a guy who came around to provide a surf board for Jovi.

Lucky for all the kids as everyone got a go....
