Woke up to find the dog had wee'd on the floor so kicked her outside and cleaned it up but when I went to get back into bed it was full of children and I no longer fit!! After breakfast we took the dog for a walk along the beach and she spent a lot of time playing with other dogs but we had to turn round early as poor Jonny got sand in his eyes and spent the walk in tears! We went home for a coffee and spent an hour looking for more rental properties on the Internet - very depressing! We decided to drive out to Donnybrook so that the kids could play in the park there which is awesome. Nick and I sat under a tree with the dog and read the paper until the kids got hungry and then we went off to the bakery for supplies. Mid afternoon when everyone had had enough we got back in the car and called into an orchard for some cherries and other stone fruit then we came home via the Ferguson Valley - a really pretty drive through orchards and vineyards. Nick dropped us off at home and then went off to Woollies to top up our supplies but he had only been gone 5 minutes when we noticed a water leak on the caravan floor. It was coming from our hot water system, which was housed under the dinning table bench and when we lifted up the seat the whole floor was flooded - and this morning I blamed the puddle on the dog!! Nick turned around and came home to check it out as there were electrical wires all over the base of the drawer but there wasn't a lot we could do except put towels underneath to mop up the leak. While he went back to Woollies I checked out more rental homes - still depressing!! Once Nick was home he took the kids for a swim in the pool and then cooked us all dinner. We spent the night watching an awful Christmas film and were very glad when it finished so that we could get everyone to bed!!
