Day 7: Mon 25 Dec – Denhams Beach

 Cool all day 

The kids were awake at 5:30am eager to see what Santa had brought them. So, after watching six excited children rip open the presents in their Santa sacks, we had a quick bite to eat and then went to church.  An hour and a half later, we were home having brunch, complete with champagne. 

Wendy had the job of making a broccoli salad, so after a few more champers it was time to prepare the dinner.  Kevin and Samantha did the ham, and Dale did a stuffed turkey with a difference – the turkey had been de-boned so it was a rolled-up stuffed turkey.  We also had roast potatoes and sweet potatoes. Dinner was eaten at 5:30pm and after mains and dessert and Quality Street chocolates, we were all even more stuffed than the turkey! More champers and wine were consumed.
