Family Holiday to Bright...

Well after a long 7.5 hour road trip on Monday we finally made it home from our 4 day family holiday to Bright. (As you can tell the driving got a little too much for the girls)  It would honestly have to be one of the most beautiful places in Victoria and would love to do the trip in the winter to see how different it looks. Brett and I have done this trip for the past 6 years and Brett has been going even longer then that, and every year it gets bigger and bigger with this year topping 1000 cars.



This year we entered the car for the weekend and took part in the annual Poker Run which was a 98km round trip through the hills and Myrtleford. We started by heading up Mt Beauty and had the most awesome view of the weather coming in which luckily only gave us a short sharp shower until a little later into the evening when it rained for approx. 1hr.

 

As nice as it is to catch up with everyone and seeing all the ace cars, I must say that it is so nice when most of the people leave Sunday afternoon and the town starts to slow down and gets back to the norm. We headed to the local playground with the kids on the Sunday evening before dinner and it was so peaceful and relaxed where as we couldn't have done that the day before as it would have been packed out. 



Unfortunately I don't think we will be going next year as the house we usually stay in is upping their price again by another 10% (They did this last year which means that in the last 2 years it has gone up $150+) and is just getting too expensive? Maybe we can look at taking our next family holiday to another destination like Tassie?

P.S - I finally started my new job yesterday which was exciting. I am now starting to stress that I am going to run out of steam working 15 hours a week as well as looking after the house and kids? Oh well, maybe this will help me to loose a little weight? :) (wishfull thinking hey?)
