Christmas at Home

We had a quiet family Christmas at home with Granny and Granddad.  Matthew and Benedickte had flown in from Norway and fortunately forgave me for standing them up when they flew through  Hong Kong.


The weather was unseasonably cold and wet for early summer.  In fact, most of the time we were in NZ the temperature was lower than in Hong Kong!

It was very nice to be back in my home town.  I was pleased to see that the amenities for kids compared favorably with Hong Kong.  The watersides at the pool are as good as anything in Hong Kong, and they now even have a 'Funzone'.
