Floyd caught the train from London to arrive in time for a family dinner of roast chicken expertly cooked by Roseanne. We were all excited to see him and Ted was happy to have him to play games with.

After a smooth and fast tracked path through immigration and baggage collection Bob from Crosswinds transferred me safely to Roseanne’s beautiful home at Herschell Road to a warm welcome and my gorgeous attic room complete with Laura Ashley quilt and Daffodils. Ted has grown and matured and Mabel is now walking and trying to talk and just as cute as ever. It was great to catch up with Roseanne..so much to talk about. Did manage to catch Glyn in between Birdwood Bakery daily management!

Sipping New Zealand bubbly in the departure lounge is quite lovely as I wait to board my Virgin Atlantic flight to London via Hong Kong. I hope the ‘upper’ class experience is good and I get some sleep in the special little pods!! Its been somewhat emotionally overwhelming…goodbyes, tears, excitement, fears…It’s all going to be absolutely amazing though, through the highs and lows of travelling and being away from home.
School starts without me…

Melville High School starts the 2013 school year today without me and my Year 12 2012 Society and Culture class. I wonder what adventures and challenges lie ahead for all of us this year..gap years, travel, work, university!?! I will be thinking of all the wonderful staff and especially the Social Science Faculty…Matt, Dave, Sasha, Allyson, Madeline and Liz.
