Kangaroos

Look closely - in the sunlight above our letterbox....


I think she has a joey.....



Whoops - got too close - they have disappeared......

For some weird reason the kangaroos who live over the road are coming in close to the house during the day. Yesterday they were right up to our side fence and we could sit inside and watch them - the little joey had the best spot, warm and snug inside the mother's pouch.

Catch-up - a 5 day weekend in Kiama

A weekend away with 150 like minded people.....






There was entertainment....



Some dressing-up





A bit of fresh air







Lots of photos






Many old quilts...





Some moments of absolute terror



(the bus had to reverse in order to make it around this hair pin bend - see those yellow crosses - we were in the back seat and it felt like we were hanging over the edge)


and some of us were a bit tired





and so we occasionally nodded off....
