Yesterday I had a lovely visit from my coordinator Kirsten, who came along for my regular safety and compliance check and to provide support, but also brought along a couple of lovely surprises.
I was presented with a certificate recognising my first year with Rainbow Bridge Family Day Care, along with a beautiful pottery coffee cup.
It really is wonderful to be part of a service that not only supports me as an educator, but also aligns so closely with my own philosophy and the way I approach my work with children and families.
I’m very grateful to be part of the Rainbow Bridge family and to feel supported in the work I love doing every day.

Back in Australia, back in full swing and straight into a full house with holiday care!
Today was our regular Thursday cooking session, and we decided to try the viral 3-ingredient apple dump cake.
This recipe gave us something a little different to explore. Unlike an ordinary cake where we mix all the ingredients together to make a smooth batter, a dump cake is all about layers. The apples go on the bottom, the dry cake mix is sprinkled over the top, and butter is added last. As it cooks, the juice and steam from the apples combine with the cake mix while the melting butter soaks down from the top, creating a golden, crumbly topping.
There was plenty of discussion about how different it looked from the cakes we usually make and whether we thought it was actually going to work!
The verdict? Ours turned out more like a delicious apple crumble than a cake — but judging by all the empty bowls, nobody was complaining!
A lovely way to get back into our Thursday cooking
rhythm, with measuring, observing, predicting and, of course, tasting along the way.

Well, it’s time to head home after our wonderful Spain and Portugal adventures.
Bunji has had such an amazing time and is very excited because he’s bringing a new friend home with him! Meet Pablo , Bunji can’t wait for you all to meet Pablo and hear some of the stories from our adventures together.
It’s been a very busy few days, so Bunji will be sharing some more photos while we wait for our flights at the airport.
We can’t wait to see you all on Tuesday and tell you all about our adventures ❤️

During this trip, Mark and Colleen have been taking on the many steps of the bell towers in the cities we've visited. The views from the top have been amazing, so today in Salamanca Bunji decided it was time to see what all the fuss was about!
He bravely joined them for the climb up the Salamanca bell tower. There were 267 steps in total!
Luckily, the climb was broken up along the way, with different levels where we could stop and look around. We could even walk along the parapets, giving our legs a chance to rest while taking in the amazing views over Salamanca.
But then something happened that I wasn't quite prepared for...THE BELLS RANG!
They were VERY loud when you're standing up there beside them! Bunji might have been a little startled, but was very brave and held on tight.
After conquering 267 steps, I think Bunji has definitely earned the title as Bunji the Brave Explorer.

Bunji has certainly been busy enjoying Portugal! From travelling through the mountains to visit the beautiful shale villages, navigating some VERY windy roads along the way (Bunji was very brave! 😳), to sampling chocolate milk in the university cafeteria.
He also made a new friend, Carlota the cat, when he visited Carmo Convent.
But his absolute highlight so far?
Discovering a eucalyptus tree in the beautiful gardens of Quinta da Aveleda! Of course, Bunji had to stop for a little visit. After all, it reminded him of home.
Portugal is certainly giving Bunji plenty of adventures to share with everyone back at Mim’s Place!
I can't believe we only have three more nights on our adventure. Looking forward to seeing you all soon and sharing lots of stories 😀

Bunji’s Portuguese Adventure Begins!
Wednesday was another big travel day for Bunji as we said goodbye to Spain and crossed the border into Portugal!
Our first stop was a cork factory, where Bunji learned all about how cork is made, from carefully removing the bark from the cork oak trees right through to the finished products. He was fascinated by the whole process!
We then stopped in Évora, where Bunji explored the ancient Roman ruins and took in some of Portugal’s amazing history.
But one of Bunji’s favourite encounters was meeting some university students! Their traditional uniforms, complete with long black capes, reminded us a little of Harry Potter. Of course, they were happy to pose for a photo with Bunji!
Finally, we arrived in Lisbon, where Bunji had his very first taste of a traditional Portuguese custard tart, a pastel de nata.
And the verdict? Delicious

Bunji’s Spanish Adventures continue!
Bunji has had another very busy few days as we travelled through Granada, Ronda and Seville!
He has taken in some truly amazing sights, from the magnificent Alhambra, ancient castles and beautiful cathedrals to stunning plazas and breathtaking mountain views.
But it hasn’t all been sightseeing! Bunji has had some pretty special experiences along the way too. He: Sat on a local policeman’s motorcycle
Had a little interaction with a street performer
Watched the excitement of La Vuelta
Enjoyed a horse and carriage ride through the old town of Ronda
Explored some incredible Spanish history and architecture
And, of course, Bunji is always a very responsible traveller. When we are on the bus, he travels safely in his very own seat!
There certainly seems to be no shortage of adventures for our little travelling mate. I wonder what Bunji will discover next?

Hello everyone! Bunji here!
I’ve been VERY busy exploring Spain over the last few days!
I’ve seen some amazing and very unusual buildings designed by Gaudí, relaxed by the pool in Barcelona and taken in the spectacular views from high up at Montserrat.
I’ve also enjoyed walks along the beach, made some new friends and discovered that Spain has some VERY yummy food!
One of my favourite adventures was learning how to make a traditional Valencian paella. I even got to help with the cooking! I’m becoming quite a little Spanish chef.
There have been so many new things to see, smell, taste and explore. I wonder what adventure will be next?
Sending big Spanish hugs to all my friends at Mim’s Place!
