I am now back safe and sound..... only a few cuts and bruises! Praise the Lord!!! Here are a couple of photos of my group the Hawks!!!

An early start...

A quick biccy break...

And we arrived!

Janine going for a joyflight...

Graffiti artists... (yes we did look for a pen of our own!)

The girls took Dad and I for the grand tour and we ended up at this abandoned house in a paddock that I can't remember the name of but you probably all know where I'm talking about!

We were thinking Scott and Lauren could move in next year??

Ice on a plane.  Better than snakes!

An early morning muster...

A Chinese Experience

Thought I'd share some of our experiences in China. Plenty of walking, looking at temples, walking, eating, looking at city walls, and more walking. Visited a few markets but never enough time to take them all in.

The group in the foyer of Amity Press after seeing through the factory where the Bibles are printed. A very big and impressive place. Our lunch at Amity Press on the right with a bowl of rice.

Subway lunch at the Great Wall. Took a chair lift up and down to the Wall and some tobogganed back down again. Fantastic views but uneven walking up and down along the Wall. kept us puffing.


Met some interesting characters along the way.

Enjoyed (mostly) a variety of chinese food. This meal (left) we cooked our egg, meat,veggies & noodles in our own hot pots at the table with a dish of sauce to flavour. The other was a typical layout with the table usually having more dishes added later and the usual pot of green tea.

The highlight of the tour was visiting the 2 country churches and giving out the Bibles for them to distribute to needy people. They were so appreciative and it was quite a moving time for us all. This is the group singing a welcome as the bus pulled up and walked into the church and then again as we left.

Meeting the Peking Duck - the dinner & show was good.

Hairdresser?

A couple of weeks ago I was feeding Lolly when I suddenly felt something on my head...'what are you doing Ever?'....'straightening your hair Mummy'!!  Got to love the mimicking accuracy as she decided to use her play food tongs to do it!  Also got to love how much she's concentrating - this is very serious business!

Poppa!

Here are a couple of average photos of Mitchells induction as academic captain. Can't get over how much he looks like Dougs brother Brett.
