We spent the first three days in Cairns to get all our Doctor and Orthodontist appointments out of the way. The next stop was the Gold Coast (south of Brisbane). That is where we spent Christmas... in a hotel. That is where these pictures come from....
After scouring the stores, my mom and I found a tree.... A very SMALL tree.... A very GOLD tree... but it was a tree nevertheless! :)
Here are the kids decorating the tree.
The tree decorated. It only took a few seconds. :)
This picture makes the tree look beautiful!
On top of the hotel we were staying at, was a revolving restaurant. This is where we spent Christmas Eve. There was no oyster stew or BBQ's, but the sea food (according to everyone else because I don't eat sea food) and steak was great! And no, we did not sing Um Ya Ya! Although we were tempted! :D
Wow, even presents showed up Christmas morning!
So, while we were planning our vacation in AU, everyone of our AU friends in Tembagapura told us how HOT it would be! Well let me tell you.... There was NO heat! It rained for the first TWO weeks we were there! But don't let that stop us! Christmas morning after breakfast, we spent time in the hot tub. We were the only ones in the pool area, but Tidak Massala (No Worries/Problem)! What's a little rain when we usually are up to our eyeballs in SNOW! 
It's still raining, but what's up next on our things to do list?? Go to the beach! I think we had a dry spell here, for all of five minutes. Because my hair is still dry!
The rain has started again, but we are having fun! :)
The gloomy sky...
So that was our Christmas Day. What's a little bit of rain or snow? It doesn't matter, we were with family celebrating our Savior's Birth!Jesus Christ is Born!
