At last things got going! The Christmas tree lights were turned on, and everyone sang carols. Kezia loved the tree.

We had been in two minds about whether to go, because of the bad weather, but we were really glad we went - it was great fun.

Daddy flees the country!

Last week, I had my first trip away with work in ages and ages. I went on a 2-day flying visit to Gibraltar. This is the view that greets you as you step off the plane. That is one big rock!

At Europa Point, the southern tip of Gibraltar. You can see the Atlas Mountains of Morocco in the background, 14 miles away across the strait. I love this spot.

At Caleta Bay on the east side of the rock - with Spain in the background.

The first present that Kezia opened was from Uncle Ollie

"Hmmm. I wonder what it is."

"Ace! TWO things!"

Cool - I wonder who this card is from....
