Growing up in Mission Beach

School holidays are coming up in a couple of weeks...got me thinking. I haven't got any children at the moment, but always think that Mission Beach is such a superb place for children to grow up. I grew up in the U.K in a standard built up town where there was no wildlife to speak of, and no beach worth seeing unless you drove for a while. The thing is the kids probably don't realise how lucky they are living here with the beaches and the rain-forest and all the wildlife around them. Maybe they do and I am under estimating them! Anyway maybe I am just feeling broody!!!!
