Whilst we were on holidays in Brisbane Aunty Mandy (our family radio star) arranged for a tour of the radio station where she works. Riley was soooo excited it was all he could talk about on the way over there. Outside the studio he saw a delivery guy delivering a few boxes of softdrink (to the cafe next door) well he was so beside himself with the thought that 'those' softdrinks were for all the radio announcers. I didn't have the heart to tell him the truth. Once inside both kids quickly charmed the reception staff and Riley managed to get himself a lolly. Mandy showed us where both the Triple M and B105 studios were and where her desk was and showed us that the news readers have a couple of TV's on so that they can keep up with the latest news and also showed us how she can record phone interviews. Then the most exciting part of the tour was seeing Mandy's studio where she records her news every day. Riley was so excited to be able to also record himself being a news reader. I have attached his newscast at the bottom of this post ENJOY!!
Riley & Emily 'helping' Aunty Mandy work. NAH really they were getting the VIP tour from Aunty Mandy.
Now I am sorry that I cannot remember this lady's name but Riley was lucky enough to sit in the studio with her whilst she was on-air. He sat very very quietly on Aunty Mandy's lap and was pretty stoked at himself for being on live radio (even if you cannot hear him LOL)
Of course Emily is never one to miss out on anything and she had to give the mic and headphones a test too.
This is Riley's starring performance on radio as recorded by Aunty Mandy. I just love watching how Mandy reacts to hearing Riley's recording.
Thanks HEAPS Aunty Mandy for arranging a visit in to the studio, we all really enjoyed ourselves.

Riley did very well on the radio,he spoke very clearly didn't he?Em looks sooo cute with those big head phones on too.
It certainly was a fun trip - and it was cool for me even to see it all. The lady's name was Dee I believe - Mandy would know for sure. It was pretty darn cool listening to the playback of Riley 'on air'.
