Jumping onto the back of the “limo” (Monty)

We went up on the tractor. Daddy walked up. But Daddy hided until the tractor went past and then he ran and jumped on when the tractor went past. And when we got to the top, the driver must have said “what?” because we only had 4 people on at the beginning (3 children and 1 Mummy) but then also 1 Daddy was on at the end. Then later Mima and me pushed Daddy in the pool.



Jumping onto the back of the “limo” (Hugh)

What amused me about this was that the driver, bless him, didn’t seem to register the different number of passengers in the back of his truck when we got to the top. There’s no way he saw me get on. Over supper, the driver’s apparent disinterest in the world around him spawned a number of different ideas from the family. We wondered how far we could take this. We might get Monty to call the limo to pick him up, and then hide the rest of the family on the trail on the way up to the hotel. Would a flicker of surprise register if 4 new people are in the back when he opens the door at the top? Or maybe we would all get out a little early, so there is no one inside at all when he gets to the top? Maybe we could collar even some other hotel guests to maximise the fun.

Of course, it is also possible that the driver is smarter than the rest of us and that he has seen all this before and spent years honing his “I’m not surprised” expression when such hilarious jokes are played on him.





(Monty) One day we went to the cave and then we walked to the waterfall but we didn’t go all the way because we had open shoes and we thought that we would get bitten by a snake. We saw parrots in the trees on top of us.



Then we had lunch.
