March had finally arrived and Ryan and the family were due into Tonga for some R&R. Amanda felt like a smuggler mule with all the extra's we had asked for and luckily they could split it up between everyone. This too could have been the reason they were last out of the airport security. Luckily, one of the policemen knew Lyndon and came out to let him know that they had arrived but were taking a little longer than normal. Nothing like a little local knowledge. This entry is the general pic's from around the house and Island during their visit.
Just some of the stash that we asked for. Lollies and chocolate made it high on the list and the kids eyes nearly fell out of their heads when they saw this pile.
Off to Fresh Cafe for our first lunch, thought we'd start them off on a high.
Jodie took them on a half Island tour as this was about a limit for the kids and so here is Ryan and Gale at the Ha'amonga Trillithon.
There's a little surprise in every Tongan handbag.
Look at me on my magical turtle. Might have to save this one for Eb's 21st.
Dyl found a friend in Eb and was also great with Gale.
Em went into auto baby sitter mode to the point we had to slow her up some days.
Eb having a crazy hair day.
The pool was a great saviour from the heat.
Finally someone else in the pool took the heat off Lyndon being drowned every second. Cheers Uncle Ryan.
Gale thought she had left something in the bag, or were they just playing hide and seek, or was she just having a little mohe (sleep)???
The Nambour Q's found our camera laying around and took a few family snaps for us.
"Come on, catch up I have your Baby." We tried our hardest to get them to join us on a Hash run/walk but Amanda and Eb were the only ones who actually made it. Too hot and the kids were too tired (more like the bar fridge would miss you Ryan). Anyway, Jodie set a ripper through Puke' and we ended up walking through the same funeral twice, an real experience for Amanda.
