Back in hospital

Saxon has asthma again, we tried everything to keep him at home but he was just breathing too hard, he needed to be in hospital, he actually asked us to him there. Poor little guy.

His hospital stay lasted two nights, his oxygen levels were down to 75%, it took over 14 hours before he could take the oxygen mask off and breathe on his own. All he talked about was how much he loves Steve Vai and Flo.

Play time

One of Griffin’s favourite things about our trip was playing at these stones not far from the hotel. Saxy is seen here in his “Fire Garden” shirt.

Prawns

Little Rock loved the seafood buffet, he managed to eat three rather large prawns and he was stuffed, insisted on icecream, then didn’t eat it. We asked for two bowls of vanilla for the boys. It was a very nice restaurant and they probably always serve their icecream with strawberries and a lovely little swirly chocolate thingy sticking out of it. But alas all these lovely things actually contaminated the ice cream and made it uneatable, Griffin didn’t eat it either, said it stunk. Charming boy. Saxon asked for prawns for breakfast the next morning.

The Opera House

The anticipation of going to the Opera House was just too much for Sax. He couldn’t wait to get there, Griff had been wanting to go inside. We thought we’d give it a try, maybe do a tour. That is until we lost Griffin again. He was walking right along next to me, and then he’s gone. I’m looking at Matt, he’s looking at me. Where is he? People everywhere, me calling his name. I found him lying down next to the tour desk, apparently he was having a rest. Man I lost it, “that’s it I’ve had enough you are on a really big time out.” I made him sit on the steps and wait while Matt and Sax had a look around, and then we were off on our next adventure.

Sharks?

Do you notice the cruise liner in the background? Yes. Well you could see it from our hotel window. The next morning, Griff was up early pacing and talking, then he noticed the cruise liner was gone.

“The ship is gone, oh no it sunked. It must have been abducted by sharks!”
