GIRLS NIGHT OUT @ COOLY HOTEL


So last Night I went out with My Awesome Friends 
to The Coolangatta Hotel
to celebrate My Birthday 
that was on the 13th Of June :)


I waited so long to celebrate
As i wanted to go to my Favourite Pub
When my favourite band 
FAT ALBERT
were playing there :)


The Boys didnt disappoint either
There Gig was Brilliant as always
The Atmosphere was Amazing
& They were full of energy
Jumping all over the place while shredding there guitars.
They also had special guest Marlon McDonald
playing the drums for them 
as Captain Rob is in Bali on holiday :)


My night started at 6:30pm 
when one of my best friends Jess
picked me up
so we could have dinner at the pub first
and line my stomach
before the drinking got under way :)


These lovely ladies in my life
joined us not long after :)


Doors to The Balcony 
opened @ 8pm
The Fat Albert Boys Started to play
Dancing was a must 


The Boys played till 11:30pm
Us Girls had had so much fun 
But unfortunately there were some idiots there
who decided it was fun to throw cans at the stage
nearly damaging the boys equipment :(


We then headed back down stairs to the Main Bar
to keep dancing the night away
& meeting random people 
who cracked us up all night with funny jokes 
& dance moves ..LOL


I love this woman
She is My Best Friend 
Her & I were the only ones who stayed till 2am
Before we caught a taxi home :)

Thank You to all of my Beautiful Friends 
Who came out for My Birthday

AUSTRALIAN OUTBACK SPECTACULAR - SALUTE TO THE LIGHT HORSE


On Saturday Night
For an early Mothers Day Treat
I had the pleasure of taking my kidlets
to The Australian Outback Spectaculars Show
Salute To The Light Horse


We were very excited to see the show
And learn about Australian History.
We were even more excited to take the Back Stage Tour
before the show started.

Unfortunatley we werent allowed to take any photos 
But the Back Stage Tour was Amazing & Very Informative
We had young Lachlan from the Cast showing us around.
We were shown everything from
 The Costumes ...The Carriages & Coaches ..Trick Aids for performing Stunts..
The Cattle ..The Donkey ...The Brumby Heard...
The Proper Saddles the Anzacs would have used....
Saddles used in stunts...
All 50 Horses in the show getting ready... 
The Vehicles in the show 
& The Elephant specifically made for the show
it was really incredible
And im so glad i purchased that experience as well  :) 

After the Backstage Tour was complete
We headed back inside 
to get up close & personal 
with some more members of the cast...


This is a pic of us with "WOLF"
One Of The Horses In The Show
And one of the 3 horses stabled in the bar area &
Who we met when we arrived
Isnt He Handsome :)


This Is Digger & Cobber
2 out of the 6 very well trained dogs of the show .
Who also are there to welcome you in the bar area :)


The Main Bar is brilliant
They have live music performed on this wagon...
The walls are covered in old signs...Pictures & memorabilia 
From the old days 
And depict rural farm life 



Off The Main Area Is also 
The Centenary Museum


It is full of photograhs ..Medals ..Saddles...uniforms and more
from the period of The Light Horsemen
It gave me goose bumps being in there.

We were then ushered through the doors 
into the show arena 
It Was SHOWTIME !!!


We were so happy with our seats
we were in the very front row
we could see everything 


Once seated we were served our Entree of
Homestyle Pumpkin Soup with Croutons 
It was creamy & Delicious 
so yummy & Hot :)


The Main Course 
Was a Tender Eye Fillet Steak in a rich Gravy
served with Garden Vegetables & a Toasty Dinner Roll.
It Absolutley Melts in your mouth.


To finish off 
Dessert is a Baked Apple Pie ,
Drizzeled in warm Salted Caramel Sauce 
& Topped with a dollop of fresh high Country Cream 
Just Beautiful :)

There is a Vegetarian & Chicken option available also :)

Through Out The Show Patrons are also served
 Beer , Wine & Softdrink continuously
Its Great :)

Tea & Coffee is also served with Dessert :)


The Show was spine tingling 
It was the best 2 hours ever
The way the stories of the Light Horsemen were told
The way the horses moved.. 
The Poetry...The songs..
The footage & real life images projected on a huge wall
It was truly Spectacular





The Show was full of Amazing Talent as
Mind Blowing Stunts were also Performed


A Man Jumps 4 horses over a barrier of fire 
While riding them standing up FFS ..
Totally Insane !!


There is alot of audience participation in the show too
As we are split into 2 teams
RED and BLUE
Reds are seated on one side of the arena
& Blues the Other
You know which team u are on
by the colour of the band on the hat you are given on entry

Riders perform challlenges for points
on both Horse Back & Quad Bikes 

4 Kids from the audience are asked to chase & catch a potty calf...
My 2 were asked ..but they said NO :(
4 Adults from the audience get to race ride on lawn mowers...

Its Hilariously Action packed fun :)


The show even has a circus 
Where there is trapeze artists ..
Ponies doing tricks ..
Clowns..
& The Elephant 
It was Just Brilliant :)


We had 3 pics as we walked through the door
into the Main Area 
This Is One of them :)


Look were in the Snowy Mountains ...LOL


The kids & I had a Fantastic Night...
And A Spectacular Experience ...

The show
Salute To The Light Horse
