Another busy week...........mostly more of the same. :-)

I missed not being able to go to aquafit this week (because of the fungal infection - yeah, I know, yuck!), but I still went to tai chi and yoga.  I find both really relaxing and I also am finding that I am becoming more limber from the yoga.  I am really hoping that when Dad and I travel, I will be able to find places which I can go to to continue on with my exercise classes.

On Thursday, I went out with my teacher friends again - it's becoming a weekly activity and, as usual, I enjoyed this time out with Luise, Di and Ingrid.  Dad and I also had lunch out twice this week - Dad was happy to do that as he doesn't get to eat the way he likes when he is in Papua New Guinea.

Iced chocolate Dad and I shared for lunch at 'Migaloos'

Steak sandwich and chips which we shared for lunch at 'Migaloos' - I wasn't impressed with the sandwich, so Dad got to eat most of it which he was happy with :-)

 After lunch, we went for a short walk to the pier - here's a view of the beach from the pier

Me on the pier - what an absolutely beautiful day!

I dropped Dad off at the airport yesterday - he headed off to Brisbane and stayed in a hotel overnight.  I went to our ward activity which was a dinner and karaoke.  The dinner was a spit with lamb, pork and beef.  And no, I did NOT sing.  But it was a fun evening.  I sat beside a woman named Irena who I didn't know very well and we had a good long chat - I love activities like this because it gives me an opportunity to get to know members of the ward better - it is hard to do that on a Sunday.  
Dad flew to Papua New Guinea today and is staying in the same complex as he did last time, but in a unit this time as opposed to the hotel.  His boss, Harry, is also staying at the unit.  It will be interesting to see what Harry thinks about how Dad has prepared this new course.
