Anniversary

This week would be the 59th wedding anniversary of our parents.
Unfortunately Dad died 19 years ago, but they had a long, happy, fruitful marriage!
I don't have any pictures here in HK of their wedding day, but here is a photo of the last time I saw Mum, along with several grandchildren. Maybe one of my other sibs has a photo they can upload- Helen??

More Rugby

Sorry, all non-rugby fans, have to show Pic of Alec's team after a long gruelling tournament.
The first is Official for the new website, the second a relaxed shot.

Hong Kong- a city of contrasts

Alec took this photo while waiting for the bum boat to Middle Island Sailing Club. He then took an Optimist out with a crowd of kids and sailed to another island and had chocolate muffins and marshmallows melted over a fire. This was a very cold and windy day so the boats came back full of water!
I love this shot as the sampan chugs past the shiny motorboats (hardly ever get taken out) carrying another sailor to his day out.

Milestones

Our oldest who is 18 has just been accepted into Syd Uni Law School- a whole new road has opened up.
We celebrated by opening a bottle of Aussie bubbly while she went out to play rugby, refusing even a sip in case it spoiled her game.
Here's to a healthy, bright and positive future for her!

Girls Rugby

All my girls play rugby on the weekends. I love their dedication to the team and their feistiness on the field. 

I don't like their injuries or the concussion!

However after the game when they are all around the kitchen table comparing stories and injuries and painting themselves with iodine it is all forgotten, and I revel in their shared sisterhood.
