Family re-Union

It's been a long time coming!

Lest we forget

Apple Roses

Heidi and I had a play today and made these apple roses for dessert!   Look good, don't they?

The Southern Lights over the Tulips

How is this for an Aurora?   We are having a few of these lately, they are amazing but only through the lens of the camera, unfortunately.   Heidi and I are busy honing our long forgotten photography skills so maybe one day you will see one which we actually took?

And this is one in our neck of the woods the other night.

The Tenth of September

Had a good day, a lovely new painting from Heidi now reigns supreme on the wall.

The new photo is top right.

In the evening Ken, Heidi and I went to The Re loving Restaurantand had a beautiful meal with our steak Dianne cooked at our table.   Who needs birthday candles?

11th September

And so the surprises continued.  I knew we were going out for a meal with Jos and Daphne.   Cooleys Hotel in Moonah was a far cry from The Revolving Restaurant, but we had a pleasant dinner and the company was good.   Afterwards I thought we were coming home but no, we drove out to The Derwent Entertainment Centre and had tickets for Michael Flatleys last of his last World Tours for Lord Of The Dance (you can see him on youtube).  It was a great show and I had said to Heidi ages ago that I wouldn't mind going to see it!   She talked with Jos and Daphne and together they hatched up the plan of the evening.   Thank you Ken, Heidi, Daphne and Jos for a good evening.   When I got home we found we had missed two calls from Liselotte!

The Dancing House!

Thanks to Katja for dragging us around Prague to see The Dancing House!

Last night we had a fascinating documentary on Frank Gehry and his amazing buildings, I had not realised he was so world renowned for his creations and was very pleased that I could say to Ken, "we saw that one when we were in Prague"

Gehry has just completed a building in Sydney and this programme followed the construction, what a headache for the bricklayers!!
