Not long to go now. With the huge Carols by Candle light production behind us and the sale of our house yesterday, we can now focus on the big trip - nothing like leaving it til the last minute! Still heaps to do; pack up the whole house, pack bags, etc, but at leaste we can let ourselves get excited now. See you in 10 days!

Wow! My first blog. I'm starting this blog because I'm taking my family on a 6 month trip to India & Africa and this seems to be the best way to inform family and friends back home of our adventures. The idea is to get the kids to journal each day and then upload it onto this blog with relevant photos. I sure hope this works because I am a little techno-phobic and have my doubts, but... here goes!
