Awoke to the sounds of crazy kids enjoying playing with their cousins and their toys. It was to good to hear and see them having a good time together.
After breakfast and the kids playing some Wii Sports, we headed down to Williamtown air base to see Fighter World, with their excellent display of restored fighter aircraft and other memorabilia.

We moved on to Nelson's Bay for lunch, where the weather at least treated us kindly enough not to open up above us, as the forecast had predicted. We had lunch down at the marina, before heading off to walk to the summit of Tomaree Head at Shoal Bay. The kids actually did amazingly well, as it isn't an easy walk, certainly not for the old codger with the dodgy left knee. The view at the top was spectacular, and almost worth the grief. Almost. :)

All of this exhausted our kids, who basically crashed at 7.00pm. Mind you, their parents weren't far behind, hitting the hay just before 9.00pm themselves.
