Hey everyone....we are still alive. We are now in Yamba, arriving here yesterday. We have had a very busy last few days catching up with long lost friends and family. After leaving K's sister in Bauple, we stayed with my brother Garry in Bli Bli - caught up with most of his family (and their families), caught up with my other brother Greg, then visited Dave and Jenny Mensforth at Morayfield, moved camp to Tallebudgera for two nights, meeting up with my nephew Dave, his wife Tania, and their 6 new 'kids' (see photos below), then had a lunch visit from Con and Margaret Giovas, then had dinner with Warren and Jenny Ernst. It has been very hectic, but very,very good.
We plan to stay here for 4 nights, but the weather forecast is not so good, so we shall see. Today is only 30% chance of showers so hopefully we can get the boat in and have a bit of fun. The rest of the week will sort itself out. The sunrise this morning was spectacular as usual - as you can see.
Keep the comments coming.....by the way, Dave's 'kids' are for sale if anyone wants to buy one.
 Only SOME of the mob at Garry & Chris' for afternoon tea. The rest, another 6 or so, were outside playing.
 Dave's new 'kids'! Charli (the mum) and Bailey (the dad) presented Dave & Tania with 6 perfect, pure bred, Border Collie pups 6 weeks ago. They are all male and for sale if anyone wants one. There is even a rare 'blue', even with blue eyes. Poor old Charli - all 6 were hanging off her and she just stood there - you can see the 'a mum's has to do, what a mum has to do' in her face! Send me an email, or a comment, if you want one and I will put you in touch with Dave. 
 This is how Jemma was when we picked her up. So cute.
 The rare 'blue' one.
 Bit of a family squabble here this morning.
 The serenity of early morning...
 ......and the beauty of sunrise.....

The 'not dancing' Pelican who, at least, smiled for me for the shot.....but not as good as my dancing dog one last week!

  1. Good to hear you are all still alive! The kids are so cute (not as cute as Stormy and Jem's but almost). I can't believe you didn't take one!! I want one!! The blue one! Do you think he'd play nice with my lizard?
