Family Arrives To Perfect Weather

Our daughter Kate, her husband Arj and the two kids Charli and James arrived yesterday to spend a week with us. For a change, the weather has been outstanding. Their day started at about 4 am before they landed here at our home about 10:30 am. Trish collected them from the airport. With two kids both in car seats there isn't room for everyone in one trip so I stayed at home. The weather was perfect, high 20's and plenty of sunshine so the pool was the obvious spot for the afternoon. We all had a wow of a time.

It did tire some of us out a little bit though so James sought a comfortable spot to have a very short snooze after tea. The kids were all so tired the whole family was in bed by 8:30 pm after a great chicken curry which Trish had cooked for us. My headphones are great for hearing the TV, the hearing Aid I wear just doesn't pick up all the conversations.

This morning Arj and I had an 11 k bike ride looking around the estate. You can just see so much from the bike and you get a great close up view of a neighbourhood. I jumped in the pool upon our return about 8 am and Charli joined me. From there it was down to the beach for a look around the rock pools and a bit of a paddle. The beach is mighty tiring so the pool might be the spot this afternoon. A lovely day again about 30 degrees out side and the pool is slowly warming up!
