Served at our table

 We're on a mini-break in Sydney to celebrate a family birthday.

In deference to Covid there is no hot buffet breakfast. We had to order from an a la carte menu.

Half a century

Sending 50th Birthday Greetings to the Best Son-in-Law ever. Our family has been enriched by your membership David Bell.

 
Cheers to a charismatic, caring, and comic character.

 
Lots of love from Gummy, BobBob and Paddy

Cancelled again

So our Darwin to Broome cruise in July has been cancelled as Ponant (and several other lines) still don't have permission to sail in Australia. Another casualty of Covid. 

 
Our super dooper Travel Agent Adam from https://www.facebook.com/TA.Toronto is booking us for a later date on a Coral Expeditions voyage.

Paw Comfort

When I sit on the couch our little boy, Paddy, snuggles up and places his paw on my arm.

He has been such a comfort to me during my convalescence.

No catch

It was a busy day in the backyard - the fish were jumping and the birds were circling. While the birds caught some fish my camera didn't.

The Jetty Man

Today we had a visit from The Jetty Man, a marine contractor, does more than build and maintain jetties. We often see him travelling by in his barge.

Robert wasn't far away giving advice to the boys.

Most of these are a bit fuzzy as they are Bus Photos (taken from a tour bus).
