So, did the good people of Tom Price take the opportunity of a very long weekend to leave town and enjoy themselves? No, they stayed in town and developed cardiac arrhythmias.
And did Easter visitors to the spectacular Karijini National Park stay safe and soak up the glorious scenery? No, they threw themselves into gorges and broke bones.
A crazy few days at TP Hospital, looking forward to my holidays!
On a brighter note, Freya has developed a love of Scrabble. We don't have the Junior version so she plays grown-up scrabble with me. Here is our first game:
My "QUIET" on a triple word score was the game winner (Q on double letter score!). Do I sound inappropriately competitive? Ade thought so! We played again the next night and she beat me; well, I was helping her at every turn! Yeah, I know, inappropriately competitive.
So, while I was putting in the hours at TPHosp, Ade and the girls went off exploring...But first Esther needed to dress and pack for an afternoon in the bush...

They went out to Coppin Pool, a 58km drive which took a couple of hours.

| Creek bed, seven to cross on the way to Coppin Pool, pretty tricky in the wet! |
It was a long day for the youngest Jonker fashionista:
Today the intrepid 3 climbed Mount Sheila:

| The kind of sign that gladdens Ade's heart :) |

| Bitumen-ised! My favourite kind of 4wd track :) |
