One of the great joys of BJ owning his own beach wheelchair is that we're able to explore any beaches we fancy. Despite this, we do prefer a beach with level access. We tried several beaches in Jervis Bay but our favourite was Greenfield Beach which …
School Holiday Accessible Activities
LIVVI’S PLACE MOLLYMOOK – ACCESSIBLE & INCLUSIVE PLAYGROUND SOUTH COAST NSW
One of the things that stings the most about BJ's younger years is the lack of accessible and inclusive playgrounds. It robbed him of the opportunity to be included in play with peers and therefore I'm always keen to review any accessible and …
STINGRAYS AT BENDALONG BOAT HARBOUR BEACH – ACCESSIBLE STINGRAY EXPERIENCE
Seeing stingrays in the wild is as good a reason as any to take a detour and that's exactly what we did recently. While researching accessible activities to do while staying at Jervis Bay on the South Coast of New South Wales we read about the …
CHERRY PICKING YOUNG – ACCESSIBLE FRUIT PICKING NSW
There are things I've always wanted to do. Some big and some small. Picking cherries is probably a strange one but as a family we've been apple, peach, strawberry, nectarine and blueberry picking. There's something satisfying in picking your own …
SWANSEA LAKESIDE HOLIDAY PARK – ACCESSIBLE LAKE MACQUARIE ACCOMMODATION
We recently had the opportunity to review Belmont Lakeside Holiday Park's accessible villa/duplex at Lake Macquarie and we were blown away by the accessible inclusions. We really didn't think anything could come close to it in regards to …
VAN GOGH ALIVE – ACCESSIBLE SYDNEY
Last week the kids and I headed to the Van Gogh Alive exhibition at the Royal Hall of Industries at Moore Park. We were wowed by this multi-media explosion of colour, art and music. It was BJ's second visit and we're thrilled to see the exhibition …
UNDARA EXPERIENCE AND LAVA TUBES – ACCESSIBILITY
It is generally what you expect the least that sticks with you the most about a holiday. And last year when I was visiting Cairns for a conference, I was surprised to find my favourite experience was inland, far from the Great Barrier Reef and the …
BATHURST RAIL MUSEUM – ACCESSIBLE BATHURST
Bathurst certainly delivers joy for any transport lovers with the National Motoring Museum and the Bathurst Rail Museum within a short drive of each other. We visited both museums in one day and enjoyed learning more about how the railway line to …
WHERE TO STAY & PLAY IF YOU NEED A POOL HOIST AROUND AUSTRALIA
Are you as excited as we are to wave winter goodbye and soak up some summer sun? Splashing in a pool is an activity many of us enjoy when it warms up, whether for leisure or exercise. BJ can manage to walk down stairs to get into a pool, or he can …
SAND DUNE ADVENTURES PORT STEPHENS – ACCESSIBLE QUAD BIKING
A few weeks ago we took a spontaneous getaway to Port Stephens. AJ's trial exams were over and BJ is still at home and not attending his day program and he's always up for an adventure. AJ had one request when we decided we'd take a few days away - …
