This picture is not great because my camera needed cleaning, but the smiles shine through! Cliff took Laura to see Come From Away as one of her birthday gifts. She loved it, and he loved it again!

Some simple pleasures are eternal.







It was a ridiculously hot day yesterday, so we went to the air conditioned museum. This friendly dinosaur is by the entrance.

Colin loves to use the juicer. He was more than happy to help make lemon curd!

It was such a treat to see the Nutcracker at the Sydney Opera House! We had a lovely meal ahead of time, then thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful production.




We have come to Sydney for a couple of days. Laura has a dress rehearsal for her dance recital all afternoon, so it was an evening flight. Kids are pretty tired out on the train into the city (but enjoying being on the top of a double-decker train!)

Selfie at last week’s office holiday party in Melbourne. The one in Port Moresby is tomorrow night!
