Been busy...

School holidays have flown past so quickly this time around. During the first week of the holidays the kids had a tennis lesson followed by rollerblading lessons all at the Condo. After that we tended to head to the pool with the other families involved and settle in for the day. It was a nice routine. The girls also represented Avondale at the Internationals Schools Cross Country and both placed in the top 20 in their field. Felicity came 13th and Alice 19th. They were very hot and tired at the end but happy to have been a part of it all.

Last weekend we became a backpackers haven. Andy dropped in for the day. When he left, Ross and Alison arrived to camp on the living room floor for a night and at the same time Chris Wenban arrived to spend three days with us before embarking on around the world trip. Nights Safaris, a Tea Ceremony, Rainforest walks, steamboat and hawker centre dinners and trips to Little India and Chinatown all followed. This week we did a few more things with Avondale families - had sleepovers, went to the movies, been back to Forest Adventure and Wild Wild Wet. Need to relax a bit so now we're off to Bintan, an island in Indonesia, for the long weekend. Happy Deepavali!
