EASTER 2014

We had a lovely Easter dinner today after the boys had their Easter Egg hunt.  I think they've ended up with enough chocolate to last them for months so I won't be buying them any more for quite some time.






Back to school for them on Tuesday and I expect Jackie will be happy to see them go so she can get the house back into some sort of order.

HMAS CERBERUS (Royal Australian Navy)

Today, we went to visit our daughter where she works at HMAS Cerberus, the Royal Australian Navy's premier training establishment near Hastings. I took a few photos, none of which would be regarded as a security risk, but I was aware that I just shouldn't be snapping photos all over the place. This is one of the two churches on the base. The Wardroom is where the officers are served their meals. It's very ornate with two chandeliers and has two large murals, one at each end of the room.

As a Scot by birth, it was great to see the Scottish team in their kilts and even better to see them winning so many medals.

GOLDEN PRINCESS - DECEMBER, 2018 18 DAYS NEW ZEALAND / TASMANIA Here we go again, cruising with Princess Cruises out of Melbourne on the beautiful Golden Princess.  There's no faulting the standard of service with Princess as we always have a wonderful time and feel so well taken care of with delicious food, entertainment and generally living a life I'd like to at home having no housework or cooking to do.  (If only). We treated ourselves this time around with a hired car service to Station Pier in Port Melbourne so our holiday started the second we locked the front door.  The car was immaculate and being able to sit back and relax was a great start to our holiday. GENESIS Arriving at the pier, our luggage was soon on board and so were we, ready to enjoy whatever was to come our way. Cruising in Fiordland on the South Island of New Zealand is always amazing and this time was no different.  Calm seas and beautiful scenery with snow on the mountains was "...
