Well the year is racing. It seems like I was just on the Christmas trip to Canada holidays and now it’s Easter! The last blog was just before Christmas and I included some snow shots from our trip. There were of course many other snow photos – hard to know when to stop when the landscape is so different to what you are used to. One more that I will put up is of our daughter and grandboys ice fishing! That was a new experience – and not something you get every day in sunny Queensland!
On the way back to Australia, we stayed over in Hawaii to catch our breath, calibrate the time difference and of course warm up! One of the warm up exercises was to go and visit the volcanoes for which Hawaii is famous. It was a little disappointing to be so far from the action – but we could see the red glow in the evening – and walk over the relatively recent lava flows which were extending the island!
