Gaby Lepitre Wow, you both sure are keeping busy. All of your activities sound like loads of fun - thank you for sharing. The weather here has been fabulous - a little windy today but you're coming back at a good time weather-wise. Have a safe trip home and hope to see you sometime this summer! Hugs

Annie Scholton Good to hear from you. Sounds like a great park, what is it's name? Do they have tennis courts?We have just got back from 2and half months in Vietnam and Cambodia. Teaching english as volunteers. No birds over there, they eat them all!!! Keep in touch

Liz Bell Busy, busy, busy!!! Good to hear what you've been up to. So are you going home for a rest? We got home from on around the 21st after a nearly 3 week trip to Myanmar. A fantastic experience. Love to you both.

Liz Jordan So lovely to hear about all of your activities, they sound like a lot of fun. I so much enjoy your photos as well. So sorry Im not too great at writing and getting back to you. Summer is coming to a close here and it has been a great one. Busy with all my harvesting of beans and tomatoes, relish making, freezing beans and David gave me a huge load of figs so have been making jam and paste to go with the blue cheese and freezing the rest for future batches. Growing seeds in the hothouse for autumn plantings and continuing to build tracks through the bush and through the orchard we are developing. Soon be planting time again. Life is busy in retirement! Travel safe on your trip home. XX

Jayne Glad you have had a lovely time there. We have enjoyed hearing all about it and seeing your photos. We are thinking of going to Galapagos for our holiday this year and want to pick your brains as I remember you saying you went there - maybe drop me an email when you get back and we can discuss :-) x

Alison Glad you're both having a really fun time. See you at home soon - safe travels.

Brenda Cofield Wow Elinor what an amazing time you are having down south!! I really enjoy getting your blogs and hearing what you are up to. You are both so active. Your are very creative. You need to show us how to make the t-shirts. It would also be fun to learn how to make soap. I'm hooked on the soap and loofa you got me for Xmas. The skydiving, how fun would that be. I look forward to seeing you when you get home. Safe travels! Love Brenda

Christine Flowers You have sure had fun! Now you'll have to entertain yourselves at home

Irene Sounds like a really fun time you guys have been having! I would love to try the indoor skydiving! Have a safe drive home. Hopefully the sunshine will still be here when you arrive back on the 13th.:-)

Barbara et al It all sounds awesome ! Seems that drinking is a requirement ( darn it anyway, lol ). The music will make sense soon....I always hated theory, but in the long run it does help. Good luck with the golf and the darts....nice to hear you're using Dad's darts :0) Poor Tess, bu if it was me I'd be upset if she was scared of spiders, that'd make two of us, lol. Love the blogs, keep 'em up !
