One of my favourite places in the world..

Hii,

My grandparents on my dad's side of the family own a beach house located in a little country/beach town called Gerringong. I want to share this on my blog because it is one of my favourite places in the world. Ever since I could remember this special house was a place where the family could catch up whether it is for two nights or seven nights over the Christmas break. I know this sounds quite dramatic but even the smell of the house reminds me of my family. This beach house is so close to my heart, I think the reason is because I have been going there since I was a tiny baby. A you can see below, theres little me on the left and my sister on the right.

My sister and I about 15 years ago at the beach house.

 I was there not long ago for a little less than a week and like always I have the best time with all my cousins, uncles, aunties, my grandparents an my dad. I am always amazed how we fit everyone into this little house as there is only three bedrooms but never the less we all fit even if we do have to set up caravans in the backyard.

My favourite thing about being at the beach house is that there are so many people that I love in the one place, and even though you might be woken up by the sound of crying, screaming or giggles from your little cousins at 6.00 am every morning, you know its worth it because everyone being in the same place doesn't happen that often, not in my family anyway.

The beach house is a place for a little bit of everything, you can choose to relax, shop, surf, swim, go for a bike ride or play any type of sport in the back yard, when I was younger I remember playing in the backyard with my sister all day long, the ideas of games were endless probably because at the time I thought it was the size of a football field. Now being older, I love watching my little cousins play in that backyard the way I used to and occasionally joining in with them if they need another player on their team.

I love how we go for walks with my cousins far ahead in the distance on their scooters, skate boards or bikes, then, watching them climb the big beautiful tree that we always pass on our way to the 'magic bridge' to feed the ducks.

 I feel so grateful to have such a special house were I go and forget my worries and have fun with my lovely family. It always has been my one of my favourite places in the world and I think it always will be.
