Bitan

Last Thursday was another chance to extend his travels to somewhere new. Craig's Dad suggested the Bitan Scenic Area, because he had read here that it had been renovated recently.

The weather was sunny and beautiful when Craig and his parents left home but overcast and cool when they arrived at their destination.


As usual, once Craig sees a large open space, he begins to run! Craig's Mum is very good at giving chase and preventing disasters.


The first thing they saw (after the view and the wide-open space) was a group of kindergarten children doing some outdoor exercise.


Craig's Mum was pretty hungry so the next thing to do was eat. Although it was 1:30 in the afternoon the only place selling food was a pizza/pasta place.


Craig enjoyed the chicken pieces and chips while his parents had pasta.


Craig's Dad surprised Craig's Mum when he tried to take a picture of the kindergarterners going home across the suspension bridge.


So, Craig's Dad tried to take a nicer picture straight away.


Craig then took his parents for a long-ish walk up to the end of the (ahem) Scenic Area where there is a very cute little ferry that serves people living just across the river.


Unfortunately, Craig's Dad's camera decided it didn't want to work. Probably because it got rained on ..... So he didn't take many pictures of the much nicer restaurant that had nice long sofas. Craig and his parents stopped there to avoid the rain for awhile. Just one picture was taken with Craig's Mum's phone and that was Craig coloring in on the back of the restaurant's customer satisfaction survey.
