Birthday Wishes and Goodbyes
Between birthday cakes and going away cakes, we single-handedly kept the Woolworth’s baking department in business this week.
Starting on Tuesday, we celebrated a very special birthday as well as the departure (that part wasn’t too much of a celebration) of our kitchen cleaner, the fantastic Cat. It was bittersweet to see her go, but we made sure she had a great send-off with a huge trivia turnout, 17 pizzas and a beach bonfire complete with a fire show!
Cat’s going away cake, one of many this week.
On Thursday, we celebrated our resident ninja…err…bus driver’s birthday a day early. Staff got temporary tattoos to match his rather permanent tattoo, kept their spirits high even though attempts at having a pool party were thwarted by the weather.

Staff also hosted a Family Dinner on Friday night. Guests were treated to heaps of tacos, salsa and veggie rice and had the opportunity to sit down with other guests and the Scott family for a meal that was sure to cure any traces of homesickness.

Friday, our lovely laundry princess prepared to bid us farewell as she heads northward to start a new part of her adventure. Friday also happens to be the night of a big, all-you-can-eat barbeque at the Bali Hai Skydive Resort, so guests and staff alike poured out for good food, a volleyball competition and a nightcap at the Mission Beach Resort.
