Thulani arrived safely after a delay in his travels caused by the public holiday for Labour Day. He has joined Mandy, Antony, Helen(20), Caitlin(18) and Al(14) to see what life is like for them in beautiful Brisbane.
He has been to work with Caitlin at Gloria Jean’s coffee shop where the girls all enjoyed his company for the day and gave him a few hints and tips to making the perfect coffee.
Helen lives away from home during the week as she is studying veterinary technology at uni. We had her favourite dinner on Friday evening, “bangers, mash and beans” so here is Thulani sharing this with her.
Helen took Thulani up to see her chooks in the backyard. Thulani wanted to try on Helen’s new boots and act the cowboy.
Here he is checking out the chooks.
Al does competitive indoor rock climbing and trains on Tuesdays and Saturdays so Thulani went along to give it a go.
Saturday was Mandy’s dad Dave’s surprise 65th birthday party so Thulani took a trip in the car with Helen, Cait and Al through the lovely countryside to Dave and Jean’s house. Here he is enjoying a front seat view of the rolling hills through the Brisbane
We bought Dave a native beehive for his birthday, to help pollinate his veggie garden. Here are Thulani and Dave admiring the new addition to Dave’s garden.
Native bees are very cute little black insects which don’t sting. Sadly their habitat in old hollow trees is being destroyed by new housing developments and they are getting harder to find in the wild.
A bonfire was prepared for the evening of the party. Here is Thulani making sure everything is ready.
Thulani took part in the singing and dancing later in the day. Here he is doing the “Nutbush” with Helen and Cait.
