Five Little Ones Take the Adults, Sept/Oct 2013 - Trip Report Index COMPLETE

[Lisa29]

I am finally getting around to starting this! Links will be added below.

In case you don't want to go through the pre-trippy, this is us

A lot, I know!

A small bit of background. This was our first full family holiday all together since 2000 when there were no husbands, wives or children!

'We' are my parents Mick and Lorraine, my sister Michelle, her fiance Jamie and their children Sydney and Kori, my youngest sister Danielle, our cousin Marie, my brother Ryan, his wife Bethany and their baby, Piper and then us, my husband Phil (blue t-shirt), daughters Madison (purple dress at the front) and Kaley (next to Madison) and me, Lisa (I am holding Kaley).

The trip report is mostly about what the four of us were doing, unless we were all together. I kept notes of what we did, but not everyone else!
