FABULOUS FAMILY VISIT

 Our daughter, Carol and son in law, David drove from Melbourne to Brisbane (1,776km) to visit us and David's parents and siblings, who also live in Brisbane. We so love having real live visits from them instead of FaceTime talks. We have been out for lunches and drives. They do all the driving, shopping and cooking. I don't want them to go home next week. They love travelling and riding their mountain bikes.

Lunch at the Lighthouse Restaurant.

They washed their bikes.
Then off for a ride in our forest.

At home Carol baked and David made dinner.

And we get flowers too.

  2. You are spoilt parents for the time they were there. You are wearing a coat and scarf! Did your temperature fall to 22 degrees?

    What a lovely visit. Nothing like family visits, especially if they do the cooking! I love your daughter’s long braid.
