Xmouse and New Yers - And Lots of Driving

OK - last post for 2013.
Our children are spread over the width and breadth of this wonderful country, and unlike last Xmouse we are not all able to be together for the celebrations of love and family.
Red dots indicate where our kids are situated:


Soo, this year we are on the road.
A trip to Brisbane to be with our daughter will also include a detour to visit my brother, and time spent with my sister on the outskirts of the city.

For overseas folks - you non-Oz residents - here is a size comparison to show distances compared to the USA and Europe:
The trip to Brisbane is like driving from Eugene Oregon to Oakland California in distance.........

..............or from Paris to Nice, or Istanbul to Kosovska Mitrovica, Kosovo ..............

Family time - nothing better.

A few images from the trip:
Brisbane by day..............

....... and by night

............ and from my brother's verandah ................ not in Brisbane  - can you tell .......  :)

...... and so to New Year's Resolutions ..........
................... to finish the ukulele ...hahaha.
 That will re-commence with the first post of the New Year.
Happy 2014 everyone .......... may the fresh year bring you peace, and as much joy as you can handle.
