On New Year’s Eve we saw a show, had dinner, and having been told we’d have a great view of the skyline from our terrace, went home to wait for the fireworks.

Robyn and Chris’s home ~ a holiday vision. After a birthday picnic in Melbourne with their daughter Meredith, we were given a dazzling introduction to Virtual Reality. Jay traveled into space, I swam through a coral reef, and we stood in the driveway of our house!

Then it was on to Chris and Robyn’s not so little piece of heaven.

Christmas Day was all about food, flowers, family. And gifts. And more food. Robyn is a spectacular cook, and we will not be eating at all in January.

These days will be in my memory forever.
