Monday we took off for our over nighter stay at Eco Beach and boy oh boy did we STM (Stanley talk for Suck The Marrow out of life).
Shaun and I were a bit frazzled over half way to Eco Beach as Joanie couldn't get comfy and cried most the way; funny thing is she fell asleep as soon as the sealed road ended and we got on the bumpy pindan. We checked in early to our Eco Tent wanting to try out their "glamping" option. It was basic but neatly presented and luckily Monday and Tuesday was cool so air conditioning wasn't missed. After getting settled I took Jb for a swim in their infinity pool and she loved it so much we swam for over an hour!! Daddy was supposed to meet up with us but he was soooo tired after fishing and packing the car and then driving us he conked out. After Shaun's well deserved nap we went for a walk on the beach , trying out a trekking baby carrier we had acquired, Joanie loved it but fell asleep in the last 10 minutes of the walk. Monday evening the three of us went to the restaurant for dinner and we were very impressed with our dinner and our little darling who sat and watched us eating and after we finished our meals her eyes started to get heavy and we came home and crashed. A lovely waitress who remembered us from last time was so lovely with Joanie and kissed her hand and wished her the best for her upcoming hospital stay.
Tuesday morning we took Miss J on a walk to the caves, setting off at morning break we got back after two hours enjoying a wondrous walk along the coast and checked out some awe inspiring caves. Jb had an ocean swim with me and then a frollick in the pool with both mummy and daddy. No wonder why she slept the entire drive home ( over 1.5 hours)
I forgot to mention we had exceptional service. Some staff who remembered us from our May stay and when heard of the challenging time Joanie has been having presented us with a voucher for a free night stay . the voucher is valid for a year so we will look forward to staying again when Joanie is fully recovered.
Sounds like an awesome get away. We look forward to catching up with the gorgeous Broome Stanley's soon xo
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful thing to do, the voucher that is. I think that Jb has many people twisted around her little finger (and around their heart). She looks precious in the photos. x
