HAPPY TIMES

Last Tuesday our daughter, Carol-Ann and son in law, David arrived from London, where they live. They are here for a 10 week's holiday.

Dad is happy Mum is happy
When we arrived home our other daughter, Sonya and son in law, Bernie had arrived. They have been on a camper van holiday stopping at beaches on the way from Melbourne to here.
The sisters are happy to see each other again.
We have our first lunch together for a long time.
Then, for dinner, we took them to their favourite Chinese Restaurant. Kam Koon.

  2. What a great holiday for you and your family. Ten weeks. That's better yet. I think that's what could be called "the best Christmas ever'. Have fun. Hi to your daughters.

  5. Morning Diane
    It is now 6.18am and I could 'tuck' in to that Chinese myself. A real treat!
    And of course there are the amazing pics with the new camera. You have certainly mastered it! Do you mainly use auto settings?
    I am thrilled that you have had the family together for Christmas. Somehow I feel that is what it is all about and I know I miss my own family at this time.
    My son and future daughter-in-law both work in industries that require their services over the Christmas and Easter periods.
    Great pics of the very happy family. I am so happy for you.
