A Day Trip To Melbourne

Just realised I got caught up and forgot to write about Amelia's trip to Melbourne!!!

Wow like I said heaps on but last weekend Amelia was lucky to go on the Stake Temple Trip to the Melbourne Temple! We got up really early to leave on the 6.30am Qantas flight!! Let me tell you I was scared as it was a plane with propellars!!!! It was the smallest plane I had ever seen! We got on and Amelia had a slight panic attack but overall was great to fly over with. We could have had something to eat but the greasy pastry was a little too much so early in the morning!!!!!



We got in and then had to walk for ever to get out bag, I almost think that we could not have landed any more remote than what we did, maybe the Melbourne airport were a little embarrased having tiny planes land there!!!!
We got the bus with the rest of the Stake and it took about 40 minutes to get to destination. Both Yvette and Amy and Kirk where there to meet us which was lovely! Kirk and Amy took Amelia for breakfast which was lovely and then when she got back we did some baptisms with her. After some baptisms Aunty Yvette took her to the shops and spoilt her rotten! Ryan and I got to spend some time together which was lovely.






After a busy day we caught the bus back to the airport and this time had the scenic drive through Melbourne and I think it took over an hour! We got some tea at the airport and did some shopping for Will and Charlotte who were back home with Aunty Coral (a big thanks to Coral and Abby and Adam for looking after the other two). Oh and a brought some Krispy Kremes to bring home! This flight was not as good as the first and Amelia had a big panic attack when the plane took off BUT at least we managed to get her to relax a little thanks to drugs and a great air host who made a fuss of her! I think we have both decided now that next time we go away we will catch the boat!
