When our two boys were young we would book places in Wye and Kennett River with friends and their kids for holidays. We had some very memorable times. So when our 25 year old son suggested we book a place and spend some time early in the New Year together, we jumped at the request. The boys brought their girlfriends along and the six of us stayed in this very homely retreat in what we know as a very unique little coastal haven. We felt like we were really being invited into a home with everything you really need. Even the trust of leaving an acoustic guitar leaning against a bookshelf for visitors to use. I didn't take mine but had a little play here and there. The Kangaroos were out, we had a special encounter with one particular koala bear and we even though of ourselves as bird watchers as the many different species, from kookaburras, to Parrots, to lorikeets, to Cockatoos and the smaller varieties perched on the balcony rail or flew over head and gathered in the trees. We didn't need a fire as the air temp was consistently warm during the day and not too fresh at night in early January. We surfed, swam, read books, had great conversation listening to music and having a drink on the balcony. I could go on...As we left, my wife said to me; 'my cup is full honey!' The perfect end to an emotional five days in a very Australian coastal retreat with our very precious boys and their beautiful girlfriends!
