I have just been tagged by Konnie.

The rules:

1. Go to the section of your computer where you store all of your photos.

2. Select the 6th folder.

3. Select the 6th photo from that folder.

4. Post and explain about that picture.

5. Tag 6 other people.


Here is my photo:


This was in 1999 in April. Forgive me for my memory but I THINK we were all down in Sydney to see Narelle's brother Reeve get married. I must have put those photos elsewhere because they are not in this folder.

The people you can barely see are Narelle, Lauren, Jordan, Me and Dallas. We had a great time looking around Sydney together and to this day I still remember Alana eating her icecream.


Aren't they cute?!



Here's one to embarrass Jordan:



Dallas had a great time playing with the kids back at the rooms:



Not sure what's going on here!




Narelle's uncle Nev is the one on the right. He needed a lift back to Brisbane, so he drove back with Dallas and I. I remember he made for some entertaining conversation, a great guy.




Lauren is much taller than me now...


I don't really have a lot of friends that blog, but Amy, Malie, Melissa and Megan, if you want to do this, consider yourself tagged.

The day that both broke and warmed my heart – 15 Jan 2011

By
Yesterday I cried all the way home from Fairfield to Windaroo. My home was well away from the floods. I hadn’t lost anything except my naïve assumptions about the damage a flood can do. But I couldn’t hold back the emotion. As the flood waters receded, we knew that we had to do something to help those affected by the Brisbane floods. Thousands of homes had been inundated by flood waters and they were saying on TV and on the internet that an army of volunteers was needed. I arranged for my Mum to come and watch the kids for the day, packed the car with brooms, shovels, mops, buckets, water and other cleaning supplies, and set off to try to “do some good”. My brother in law and his wife had friends on a street in Fairfield whose house had been submerged up to just under their roof, so they sent me the address and I headed for Fairfield. I was nervous as I didn’t know what to expect. As I drove under the overpass at Mt Gravatt I saw a huge line of volunteers over the bridg...

15 day Tasmanian Adventure with Teenagers

By
Kayaking on the Huon River We weren't sure this holiday was going to happen.  In February of 2020, before many people had heard of COVID, we decided that it was time to take the kids to Tasmania.  We've taken them all over the world and had been meaning to do a Tasmania holiday some day.  With Megan now 18 years old, this felt like it might be our last chance to go as a family. A few weeks later a pandemic was sweeping the globe.  I wasn't seriously worried though.  How long could it last?  How bad could it really be?  This is 2020 and we have science and health experts who will deal with it and we will move on.  It soon became apparent that this was not going to blow over quickly.  Right up until a few weeks before we were due to leave, I was not sure whether we would be going.  State borders in Australia had been closed for much of the year, and brief openings had been squashed again by new outbreaks.  Even if Tasmania let us in, ...

13 night cruise around New Zealand on the Dawn Princess

By
On January 3rd we embarked on our fourth cruise with our friends, the Penney family.  We have known the Penney family since our kids were very young, with our youngest children born only 2 weeks apart. Given some potential medical concerns, we chose a New Zealand cruise as it would have been fairly easy to access high quality health care if needed. This was the first time that the Penneys had cruised. We had previously done two P&O cruises to Vanuatu and New Caledonia, and a Disney cruise from Florida to the Caribbean.  This time we were cruising with Princess on the Dawn Princess. Comparison of Cruise Lines It was interesting to note the differences between the ships.  We found that the P&O ships had a much younger demographic, with a party atmosphere and an emphasis on the nightlife.  The Disney cruise of course had a heavy family focus. We found the ship, the service, the shows and the theming to be exceptional on the Disney cruise but did not...
