Truanting

I played hookey from the conference this morning to tour the Norfolk Island home of late Australian Author Colleen McCullough. It differed dramatically from what I expected to see. Colleen was quite the collector. Unfortunately interior pics weren't allowed.

While the house looks traditional from the outside the interior is another story. It has to be seen to be believed!!!

Windows in the dining room were specially commissioned

The Bookshop is decorated according to Colleen's taste

Danger on Norfolk Island

We are trying to stay safe on Norfolk Island (with a little help from local signage).

It's time to learn

After three days of touring this picturesque island it's time to change gears and prepare for the AFFHP genealogy conference that kicks off tomorrow.
