Gold Coast: Day 3 New Year Day

Day 3 along with the new year had two starts.  In the morning TV and SV played with finger puppets before breakfast. SV started the new year off by going to the beach for the first time when she could walk and actually play in the sand and waves. At first she was quite nervous and wary, but pretty soon she started enjoying herself. She got a bit wet playing in the waves, so we took her up to the beach to dry off. KT then gave her a mandarin from the comfort of our little beach tent which provided some necessary shade from the strong Australian sun. After the beach we had a nice dinner at a German restaurant run by a Czech man where SV had a go at being a beer wench.
