[QUOTE="Estherfromjerusalem, post: 621408, member: 77"] Well, I made it. I'm down under, in Australia. I'm in Sydney with my difficult child, who has just left the house he lives in to go to a hip-hop party, at 10:20 p.m. I'm OK with that. Whatever he wants is fine with me. Well, almost, but I am trying not to make any demands on him. So far we are getting on really well. I've been here a week and a half already and the time is flying, although the constant rain is making touring just a bit difficult!! On Sunday difficult child and a friend of his took me to visit Marg and her Man. I was so excited. Just the thought of meeting someone from the CD board is a very exciting thing in itself. And Marg is very very special, and her Man is also a special member of the CD board, so it was double excitement. The town they live in is really beautiful, very picturesque. I saw the ferry and the bay that Marg has mentioned often, and I met her mother-in-law whom she mentions in every posting. She is a marvellous lady with a constant twinkle in her eye and as she said, she's still "got all her marbles"! We had lunch and two of their children came and it was so good to meet them. Oriel went off to the beach with his friend (the weather was sunny) and then Marg and her Man took me on a tour of the town and we also went to the beach, a beautiful sort of cove, very peaceful. There's nothing like the sea, and waves, and peace and quiet. I loved it. They showed me all sorts of trees, beautiful Australian trees and plants. They scared me with talk about Australian spiders!! We went back to M-i-l's place to sit and chat a bit more, and then we had to say goodbye and part, but it was really wonderful to meet Marg "in the flesh", to give and receive a real hug and kiss. The bond is most definitely there, thanks to this place. I apologise if I'm not expressing myself very well. It's just a bit overwhelming and I am very happy to have had this opportunity. Love, Esther [/QUOTE]
