Day 22, Thursday 16/1/2014, Bay of Fires

University notification day! It's cloudy, windy and a cold 15 degrees C today. Big jackets back on. Not planning to kayak. I just read that there is a free ranger activity here tonight at 2000hrs. Penguins, cool! I had a lazy day of beach walks and reading. Bliss! There is a beautiful lagoon at the north end of the beach.

Amara took to calling Col Uncle Cauliflower and the kids, small and big finally took to climbing the tree. About 200 people turned up for the penguin watch, too crowded but we learnt some interesting facts and Eliza made a plaster cast of a footprint. We then went to the north side of the headland to do our own private little penguin watch. Very cute! We saw 5 penguins.

Jordan finally got onto the results page. She got into Primary Teaching at University!! Yay, her dream  for four years now! She's so excited, and will make a wonderful teacher. The change in Jordan is staggering. I can see what has been weighing her down lately. Congratulations my baby girl!
