A change of pace...

Well, it's been over a year since our last entry.  And, it seems we even forgot to put in the last entry for Cambodia - we will post that in the near future.  Although it may be a year late it is worth posting just for the subject, particularly if you're into good food!  yes, it is a common theme of this blog! :)

What a year it has been.  the big news being that we have grown from a crew of 2 to a pack of 3, with our son isaac being born in January 2014. The addition of Isaac is the best thing that has happened to us and we look forward to taking him on many trips as we move on.  Here's hoping he likes travelling like we do.

As we have found out recently he certainly likes his food!




With a baby we are being cautious with our travel plans this year.  no backpacking or eating crickets (well maybe)....just a few lazy holidays/

Our first trip is coming up this weekend.  We are off to Fiji for a traditional Aussie resort holiday in the Pacific.  We plan to visit a village where a friend grew up to take some presents to them on our friend's behalf.   This does mean, however, that we will need to drink Kava with the Chief! Other than that, there will no doubt be food on the agenda as well as many hours relaxing on the beach or by the pool with a drink in hand!  Watch this space.  on that a note a big thank you to dave for all the tips and arrangements made and to everyone who gave us advice in the lead up.

Finally, a big Happy 40th to our siter/inlaw Fiona.  For one who used to try and argue how she was a certain number of years older than Jeff as kids and overstating the difference, it's good to see that you now try and understate it....but you still got there first and we should all celebrate each birthday we make.

She wasn't always an ogre....

On that note, hope you keep reading the blog and commenting.  We will continue to update as we go.
