In Australia

Since coming to Australia, Hannah and Sam have played with Nicky (the dog) and Woosha (the cockatiel), been on a steam train, enjoyed unseasonably warm Victorian winter weather, had plenty of barbecues, been swimming, done some tram spotting, visited Melbourne Zoo, learned to play Totem Tennis, met new friends, and been greeted every morning with the immortal words, "Heeeere's Grandpa." We should be able to post some photos of their adventures next week. Today, Rachel is going to see her first footy game at the MCG, where it is expected 90,000 people will attend the Essendon-Richmond game. Wooo. Go Bombers!

North Dakota, yes!

Still looking for Alaska and Hawaii.

Spiderman and the Butterfly (again)

We've seen these before haven't we? The children sticking to their favourite face paint characters.

Prospect Park Lake

While I was sitting through a five hour video for my driver's licence, Lily took Rachel and the kids sailing on Prospect Park Lake. Here are some of the best photos of the day.



Sam's First Bowling Trophy

The children went to a bowling birthday party and won trophies. Sam was so proud. He took it school, he took it the playground, he showed it to strangers on the street, he took a photo of it...

Superhero Playdate











Mateo came around for a late evening playdate in his Superman shirt. Hannah was in her Supergirl pyjamas. Synchronicity! Don't they look dignified? Mateo's brother Lorenzo thought it was a big laugh.
