We started the day with a Skype call from Louise’s parents and Sam, her nephew. Louise had a cunning plan for the call, so when it came through, we sat out on the deck in the sun with our morning tea and turned the laptop upside down (and therefore the camera) – after all, we had to prove to Sam that we were on the other side of the world, and therefore should be upside down too! He looked a liitle confused, and from the squeal from Margaret I think she may have been a tad surprised/confused too!!

Catch up day today. Louise went off on a shopping trip while I caught up with the blog, prepped some more of the webpages I should have done early in the year for our last trip out here and tried to help with our jigsaw – it’s a doozy!
