Bye!

It´s been a rich and amazing time in Europe - and all the more exciting as I didn't know what to expect before I came. It is with some heart-tug that I pack my bag to leave.

I am lucky to have made this trip with Andrew - we have been made welcome so in many places. It is a testimony to his beautiful character that so many wonderful people hold him dear in their hearts, and one of the best aspects of this journey for me has been having the opportunity to develop special friendships as well :)

We are determined to document this trip thoroughly, and have stories and photos of our last few weeks to share - from the Tuscan autumn to the full snow of the Swiss alps, and most recently, pre-winter Spain ... it's been unforgettable. However, I'm now resigned to recording it from Argentina.

In the mean time, here's a couple of our most recent photos ...

On a positive note, it's quite comforting to know that our home has become ´more compassinate and humanitarian´(as is broadcast here). Rudd's first commitments - apologising to Indigenous people, signing the Kyoto Protocol and bringing our troops out of Iraq sound like a great way to start a term! Lets hope he lives up to them, and continues in the same vein.

Well then, until South America

Adios!!
