and accompanied by the orchestra of

staff and students.








I forgot what she was playing,
but I enjoyed it.....

No ideas what they are supposed to be





Peter and the Wolf
and the other 2 videos
are of a music lesson





A perfect day for riding

Friday 26 was the perfect day to ride
our bikes.
We parked at the sailing club.
Ride to the bridge, cross the road and ride
along the caravan park to the beach.
After a rest and a drink, we rode back.
The beach was full of school children on
an excursion. They had tins with glad wrap
at one end, so the could see in the rocks puddles.
when we arrived back at the bridge we cross again
and rode on the other side of the lake to
Deep Creek bridge. We rode under the bridge
to the dog training area. (1st photo)
Very nice spot. Had fun looking at the dogs catching ball.
Mostly having fun if they refused and
the owner had to get the ball.
When we came back to the bridge it was
time for lunch.
We had a Thai beef salad at H2O.
The salad was a bit pricey but very generous.
(small diner tonight).
We had a very good view.

We had to burn out all those calories.

So we rode bake to the sailing club,

went to the bush track right to the golf course
Oops I just deleted a photo........

End of a perfect riding day.

I have to go to Pilate now

Amelia ate a whole
hot cross bun.

Grand dad and Amelia eating plum.
Amelia started her lunch with a plum.
Oh well everything get mix up in
the tummy anyway!
In the afternoon we tried out a
new park.
Very good for small children and bigger kids too.
That child is scare of nothing.
Few people ask me how old was she?
a little girl of 21/2 was doing
only half of what Amelia was.

I couldn't take a photo but
she climbed it.
I was scare.

Had enough of the play park.
We went for a walk.
Amelia found the paper bark tree
very interesting.


she even ate a piece of it, did not
like it . It stuck to her palate.
Today, she has been eating every
rubbish she could pick up.



these videos are taken at the park. sorry I forgot again not to turn the camera.

17 months today

Tuesday 16 march 2010
Amelia is 17 months today.
Happy birthday darling.
for the first time I gave her some corn on the cob.
she liked it.
then she went and meet Terry.
Shane made it when he was a sick little boy
staying home.
we stuffed old clothes with bits and pieces
of material.
But poor Terry is not in good shape anymore.
She has been looking at him, pointing
but she did not touch him.
maybe next week!
Wednesday morning.
She has a suitcase with different
outfits and she goes and choose
clothes and dressed herself....
on top of her PJ.
sometime, often she bring them to Claude
in his study and he help her...but...
I bought her a strips T shirt.
So I wanted her to wear it .
Jo and Mykaela have one,
so all 3 will have one now.
Maybe I should get one for
Shane for his birthday!!!!!!
I was not going to post this photo
but I am in love with her beautiful skin.

Manly beach

a park along Manly Beach.
too many 3-4 years old,
we moved to another one
this park look like a mother group
meeting.
Amelia just blend in.
she tried everything.

home for lunch:
pasta and tuna but still room fore corn.
and blueberries
playing with old dolly pegs and
an empty formula tin.

Jo and Shane call her the bags lady!
here she has 2 bags and is running.

I love this picture!
She is trying to touch the tree.

Amelia LOVE playing with this
towel. She spent a long time
playing with it.



She is tired but I was told:
only one sleep per day.
Yeah last week I put her down at 9 am and she
slept till 12.
and again down at 3 for 1 hour...
and she did not sleep that night.
