New Years Eve at Silverton


We drove to the Silverton Pub for New Years but because its my family there were incidents on the way there, of course. Alicia threw up twice and we had to change her twice. She hasn't been well (surprise, surprise) but I think it is more of a sinus infection and the gunk running down to her stomach. She coped with it very well especially since this all happened, after about an hour and then again after about 2 hours. Remembering we still had at least 5 hours to go.
We did get there by about 6pm and there were quite a few people outside the front of the pub and I didn't realise this but Chris' interceptor is continually parked out the front which I thought funny. I did expect the pub to be in the middle of no where surrounded by nothing but that isn't exactly the case. Never the less it looked good.
I met Chris and Jo and their kids Cec and Casey. Beautiful people and very welcoming. The accomodation was really nice and Ewan and Alicia fit right in. Ewan had plenty of space to play around in and Alicia had plenty of dirt to get dirty in.

New Years Eve came in with a bang, literally. Fireworks were great and then not long after I went to bed. The kids thankfully were already sleeping soundly.

We did have a few issues during the night with Alicia, who ended up taking the whole of the bed but other than that, it was a really good trip.

Thanks to Chris and his gang for making it memorable in more than one way!!!!!
