Spring has sprung!

​SPRING HAS SPRUNG!
 
I LOVE Spring! Like REALLY REALLY LOVE it!
It tells me that sunny days are coming, the weather will be warming up, daylight savings is on the way and dare I say…CHRISTMAS! Can you tell I’m excited?
Today our team blog about Spring, and Spring holiday destinations…Cindy
 
Spring is the start of the warmer months and when people start to relax and clean or even travel before the busy season in Summer. Spring is perfect for a nice walk since blossoming is in effect,
In the last few weeks of Spring I will be going on another cruise with my significant other who I talked about in previous blogs. We are celebrating his grandma’s 80th as well, Adam joined my family and I for my grandmas 80th in August so it is just mere coincidence that I will be going on another so soon after.
The cruise we’ll be on is called P&O Comedy Cruise and it will be held on Pacific Adventure for 3 nights.  I would recommend a 4 night or 3 night cruise for your first time, depending on your body and how you deal with motion sickness it can be very daunting so bring anti-nausea if you want to try.
Considering the price for hotels and foods and airfares, a cruise has got you covered for all that for a cost of an airfare usually depending where and when. But Spring can have some self reflecting time as well, hence why It is called spring cleaning, refresh and clean out old stuff for the summer months following, get rid of all those dusty 5 year old jackets and donate them for a good cause, it is time for a upgrade!
And for a closing scene I’ll give you all a small reading!
“The card I pulled for everyone is a reversed attachment. This card reversed is a wonderful indicator that an old negative pattern, relationship or desperate attitude is being released. As you continue to let go, you will be able to establish new ways of doing things and relating to others” – Holly
 


It’s spring! Yay. The weather is amazing especially the sunny days as it brings me joy and happiness.
 
I love doing outside activities in the sunshine especially going onto walks around Lysterfield Lake and Wilson Botanic Park as I love going for walks as they count as exercise and are suitable for my health and well-being too. I also love running and playing basketball in the sunshine. Another fact about me is that I love playing tennis in the summer and spring weather too.
 
I also love going to the beach during the summertime as I love spending time in the water during the warm days as it brings me joy and keeps me cool in the hotter days ahead. I also love spring as I have a swimming pool and can often be found there during the summer and Spring time.
 
Funny fact: Great Danes do not like the heat and my dog Lucy is scared of water so I put her bed under the air conditioning or spray her with the garden hose to cool her down sometimes.
 
Some of the other activities I would suggest doing in the warmer weather are gardening, going to a park with your family or having a picnic. I can ride a bicycle or a scooter around a bike track. Or even blow some bubbles in the sunshine. They look so cool when they are in the sunshine. You can even draw with chalk on the footpath outside your home or at a local park.  On Monday’s, we blow bubbles in a park and draw some amazing drawings as a team in the sunshine. Some people choose to play basketball too as it’s a team activity.
 
The every 1 cafe sells milkshakes if you want to get a refreshing drink like a milkshake. My favourite is chocolate. We have many other cold beverages located at Amstel Club 1:30-3:30 on Thursday’s. We had a team meeting recently about what else we can offer during the warmer weather. 

Don’t forget Slip, Slop, Slap, and Seek Shade to reflect the importance of seeking shade and sliding wraparound sunglasses to prevent sun damage. – Scarlett.
 
Spring has sprung! Come on an adventure, to see what I got up to last week as the weather was stunning. We decided to do some sight seeing on the Mornington Peninsula. Our first stop was Moonlight Sanctuary. Moonlight Sanctury is about 50 minutes from the CBD and is set in a bushland setting with over 70 Australian animals. Some are kangaroos and wallabies which can be hand fed. You can also cuddle a koala, which I did. We walked around looking at the animals and learnt about cockatoos. It was fabulous.
 
There are plenty of places to enjoy a picnic. We spent at least an hour there but could have spent more time. I recommend it to families. There is a cafe there too. 
 
Our next destination was Arthur Seat which has a chairlift ride which is called The Eagle. It is an enclosed cabin and the view is stunning. We could see the city of Melbourne. We decided to do the return trip where you can watch cars below us. We enjoyed lunch at the restaurant which was delicious.
 
Our last destination was originally a surprise, it turned out to be Charlie’s Auto Museum. It’s a private owned collection of over eighty cars and bikes. There is a model of the Titanic and Luna Park. It was originally opened in 1988 in a small shed on his property but it has grown so big. It was interesting to see olden day cars and some overseas cars. My favourite car was a pink stretched limo.
 
Another highly recommended place to visit. I had a blast of a day. Have you been to any of these places and if so what did you think of them?
 
Happy reading about my sightseeing day love Jess 
 
 
 
Seasonal travel for me will be in Spring time.
There are so many countries that you can travel to in spring and some of the countries I would like to travel are.
Europe
Romania
Hungary
 
Greece (Go to the temple of Persephone to thank her for spring)
 
Asia
North and South Korea
Philippines
Thailand
Japan
 
Indonesia (Did you know that Indonesia is both European and Asian) Did you know there is a hidden country called Eurasia if you want to find where is Eurasia in world map is, it’s in between both Europe and Asia. 
 
Most people want to travel during spring because the warmer weather brings delicious seasonal produce, blooming flowers, and the days are longer which give you more time to enjoy with family and friends.
 
What country would you like to travel to in Spring?  Phillip
 
 
 
Spring is here! I like spring because the sun is out, and the weather is warmer, the butterflies are flying around, the bees are buzzing, you can have a long walk at the park, or a bike ride or have ice cream with family and friends. You can also go swimming in a pool or at the beach.
 
Spring festivals. Have you ever been to a spring festival? I’ve been to two spring festivals which were Oktoberfest which takes place in late September and throughout October and second festival I’ve been to was the Tulip Festival which start on 16th of September  and goes until the 15th of October.
How do I feel about the festivals? I love going to the Tulip Festival because the different colours of Tulips are so pretty. You can even buy Dutch clogs or  take photos in the giant Dutch Clogs, some are even Disney themed clogs and music  , food and drinks are delicious. The Oktoberfest highlights German food, drinks and music. I reckon that’s just about getting out and enjoying spring. Charlotte
