Off to Tookey's Creek! Day Two

 We woke up and had showers and Grandpa weeties for breakfast then we got all the stuff that we brought in last night and packed it in the car. We then went off to a dancewear shop and tried to get some black dancing pants because mum forgot to pack them. Finding out that the shop didn't have any, we then went to Hanna's to see if they had any and after looking all around the shop we found that they did, we bought them . After Hanna's we went back to grandpa's to get out the sheets and fold them up and to also get our undies so after that we headed off.


We were heading for Tookey's creek,  after about 3hrs of driving we were in Goondawindi where we decided to have lunch so we went to the shop part of the town. Sarah also wanted to get some rainbow loom rubber bands so we went to Crazy Clark's and asked if they had any but they didn't so we went to Target to see if they had anything but they didn't have any either so we decided to go Foodworks and get some food for dinner and something for lunch. It took awhile to get everything into the esky but we finally managed and we drove over to a park to make our lunches which ended up as sandwiches with meat and cheese. We also had a soft drink and some fruit. I also had a play on a park roundabout which was really fun. 

We then headed off again to our goal which is Tookey's creek. After about an hour it begun to rain (great!) well, it was fun watching the grey clouds coming closer and closer. Dad said that it was about another hour till we get to our destination. To enjoy ourselves we talked and read and played games and look out the window at the cotton farms which look like snow (very fun!), when we were about 13km away from Tookey's Creek mum, dad and I started a count down of kilometers left, it was really fun but it really annoyed Tim. When we got down to 900m we got really excited. 

Finally,  we arrived (yippee!) at Tookey's Creek and it had finished raining which was lucky because we didn't want to get wet. So we got the caravan up and everything set up, I got inside and started making dinner which was sausages, salad and potato salad which was very nice. After dinner we had dessert choc chip muffins which were very nice! Then mum and Tim started playing a card game then we had some water to drink and went to bed. 
First night in the van, wish us luck!
Goodnight.

  1. Good luck! I hope you don't get attacked by Sarah's insects. Bit jealous of your choc chip muffins.
