And pretending, just for a couple of hours, to be like Tom Hanks on my very own island (albeit with a slightly lighter and 'whiter' beard)! This is Hays Inlet near the bridge to Redcliffe. I launched my @kayaks2fish kayak from Brighton Park and spent a couple of hours exploring this fascinating area. I even managed a little swim before the sand flies found me and chased me home again.

Paddle time! We can’t wait to be spending more time outdoors when we hit the road in Bronte the bus. Indeed, this is what the boys’ ‘classroom’ will look like.

We can't wait to be spending more time outdoors when we hit the road in Bronte the bus. Indeed, this is what the boys' 'classroom' will look like. Lots of outdoors play, exploration and opportunities for natural learning! We've been out for a few paddles in our local Brisbane waterways ... the boys love exploring the mangroves and estuaries and finding little secluded beaches. At a squeeze, we can fit the whole family in, so nobody misses out! This is us in some of our favourite local paddle spots in our @kayaks2fish. Happy weekend everyone!

A big thank you to everyone for their supportive comments and encouragement on my last post.

We ended up at the bird hide overlooking Bald Hills Creek. Along the way we saw dozens of kangaroos. The mozzies were out in force but we had a great arvo exploring! I've been working long hours on the bus lately and am conscious of the need to strike a balance between getting the bus project finished and enjoying some adventures with the boys. We are all at our happiest when immersed in nature. It was a wonderful afternoon together walking, talking, learning and laughing. ~ Keiran.

The last of the insulation was installed over the weekend. We've got 50mm polystyrene in the walls, an air gap, then a three-in-one foil insulation stapled into place. Pine battens and 3mm plywood are going on next to complete the walls. We've also finished installing exterior vents for the fridge and 'rangehood' (a 24v computer fan mounted in the wall), and added the power inlet and access holes for exterior sensor and annex lights. A productive weekend (despite the super hot #Brisbane weather)! ~ Keiran.
