The last few days have been really busy for me what with baby-sitting and parties and packing. Leaving in 2 days, and I've almost finished packing. Before I leave the country, I get to have a lovely visit with grandfather and family and then off to Europe on a whirl-wind trip. So many places to see and so many beautiful people to meet. It's been lovely today, the morning cold with winds and then in the afternoon a beautiful sunshiny day. Walked my shoes off with my mother today, who bought me a new book and a bun from the bakery...best food ever! I won't be writing very much if at all for the next 11 days so au revoir my friends.
