Happy 21st Birthday celebrations...

 

I have been so crazy busy since returning from Samoa, with my middle child's 21st birthday, which we celebrated with a neat family dinner at a restaurant overlooking Henderson Valley.

She also got to enjoy her new wheels and stayed in an Airbnb for some girl time with her sisters. It's been such a whirlwind celebration, as tomorrow we're flying out to Australia.

Yes, we're going to the 'world's' to check them out with our youngest, who has never been to Brisbane. So it will be a first, and we'll probably check out the local markets there too.

Not to mention that we're staying at Kirra Beach, just south of busy Surfers Paradise on the Gold Coast, and we may even get some time to catch up with my brother and his wife, and my nieces and their families, so they can meet their NZ cousins.

Will be taking over some books to share some of the ancient Samoan stories with our family in Australia, and then check out the beaches there, with one just across the road from where we're staying. It's going to be fun, and I'm looking forward to it as I'm on long-service leave, which is an extra 2-week-long break from Te Wānanga o Aotearoa, where I work.
