Surprise!!

The mobile phone rang just an hour after we’d set up for our week-long stay at Ellis Beach – north of Cairns. Mum Van I was on the line and asked if we’d like to join her and Dad for dinner. What in the world?? Turns out she and Dad had just flown into Cairns and were headed our way for a 3-night stay in a unit at Ellis Beach. What a treat! We had 3 lovely days and nights of catching up with family, enjoying the beach, swimming in the pool and sampling some of the fine food on offer at Palm Cove. Thanks guys for our birthday dinner and the memories of our Ellis Beach surprise.
