Dropping in for the Weekend

As some of you will know, I dropped in on Dad and Buzz for their birthdays the other week. The whole thing was a surprise for Dad. All I needed was one of these to make it happen:


Kate and the kids stayed home, though.

It was great to be back in Tassie, even if it was just for a couple of days. As you'd expect, I spent the whole time with family. (Sorry I didn't get to see more of you!)


We had a lovely lunch to celebrate the birthdays. I also spent a fair bit of time wandering around the veggie garden at Mum and Dad's. Much of their garden is thundering along. I've never seen as many apples on a single tree as this!


Luke was happy because I basically spent my baggage allowance ferrying Sydney's finest to him :) I consider it my duty and honour.


Fortuitously, my visit coincided with the Ten Days on the Island festival. With Jen and Funnel I caught a performance of Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis. Excellent. Music by Nick Cave and Warren Ellis. I recommend it. (I think it'll be in Sydney later this month).

Then back to Sydney, and straight into the Moore College Mission week!
