We all headed off to Aussie World today with Boof and Nikki. It was such a great day, got there around 10am amd didn't leave till closing time at 5pm.
Aussie World is an amusement park full of rides for both the young and old. It's right next to Ettamogah pub which we had a sticky beak in quickly at the end of the day.
The rides were awesome at Aussie World, the best being "the giant redback", it's a combination between the 'pirate ship' and 'the claw'. Boof, Marty and l went on it first together, tried to get boo on it but there was a height restriction that she was 1.5cm too short!! Bit surprised Marty put his hand up to go on it as he isn't much of a thrill seeker. It was so cool, loved it. All you could here was me giggling and Marty and Boof cramping their dacks!! Great laugh. Boof and l let go and put our arms up in the air, but Marty just couldn't let go! However, at the end of the day we tried to get Boo on again, success!!! Had different blokes on the entry and they were a little more relaxed about the height thing. Boof was the lucky sucker that got to go on with her, he was silently scared that she would be frightened on the ride and wouldn't know what to do, however we knew Boo. She loved it, was sceamibg out "awesome" the whole time, letting go and putting her hands up in the sir, while Boof was calling out "your kids a freek"!!! Funny times......
At Aussie World there are 30 rides and we did 29 of them, some twice!!! With the height restrictions Meg and sometimes Boo weren't able to go on, but we all took turns of sitting with them, which was good that Marty and l could go on rides together for once. The best rides of the day were the dodgem cars (favorite for everyone, especially Marty and Boof), the booma zooma (a giant swing type ride), the Mossi musta (like the cha cha ride), and the space shaker swinging ship (like the pirate ship). 'Meg only rides' that she enjoyed where the tykes trolley (a little motorised cart ride) and the 'giggle go round' ride which had cars, planes, etc that went round. Was quite funny, she first went in the car and spent the whole time listening to this boy in the plane play with the horn. As soon as the ride finished she wanted to go back on and chose the plane straight away.
The day was beautiful and sunny which was fantastic. Boof and Nikki were a little jet lagged still but put a terrific effort in making the day so enjoyable. Boof and l ended up a bit squirmy in the morning after a few rides, but after lunch came good.
Speaking of after lunch, we decided to have a game of 18 hole putt putt golf. It was probably the highlight for all of us. I was a bit flukey, Nikki got frustrated at times which was funny, and Boof and (surprisingly) Marty were very competitive. All in all we had the best laughs. Marty won by a substantial margin, with Boof then me close behind and poor Nikki last. Took us and hour and a half, the girls had fun and we had a blast.
We had an ice-cream in a cone for afternoon tea, and normally l wouldn't mention this but it was so funny. Nikki got this dark luminous green ice-cream that was bubblegum flavor, and when she finished her whole mouth, tongue and teeth were green. The kids thought it was funny!!!
We checked out Ettamogah pub at the end of the day. Quirky artwork inside and awesome wooden bar.
Headed home with the adults b*****ed but the girls on a high! Had awesome fish and chips to end a fantastic day!!!
It's was great to catch up and have a fantastic day with Boof and Nikki where memories will be stored forever......
