How lovely it was.....

Such a lovely break in the warm tropics playing with young Jack (and his dad who happens to be a wonderful son)....

the funeral for my nephew Chris was held during this time
very sad to be away from family
we have booked tickets and will be visiting them all in October
will plant a tree
gone but never forgotten


morning walks  


beautiful beaches


making turtle tracks .......


helping Nana sort (?????) the yarn ....


artwork and pelicans at the esplanade 


early morning chats on Nana's bed with the lovely doona cover....


being woken up by the kookaburra's....


buying new curtains for Jacks room....


mending Jacks rugby ball.....


loving the texture of the paper bark trees


sunrise on the early flight home.....


where some fun post was awaiting
will show you next time.....

Righto, Gotto Go.... why didn't the cleaning fairy take advantage of me not being here? - she could've done so much!!!! ....

  14. What a darling wee baby boy.
    Lots of lovely photos, clearly a nice place to be.
    Our beaches are still too cold for the babies.
    And NOPE, the Cleaning Fairy isn't here either.
    shame that.
