Hello everybody
How time flies! Already we are in May and it doesn't seem long since Christmas!
April blog will be mostly photos and captions, as we have a lot to do round the place before winter sets in, so I'm cutting down on the narratives to save time, chuckle!
This month we celebrated our 56th wedding anniversary, then spent Easter in Denmark with the family, which was lovely. Here's all the photos.

A clever shot of us on our anniversary! |

Easter Holiday

We went for a walk with Emil to Poison Point..... |
I thought these two photos would make good jigsaw puzzles!
On Easter Saturday, John played with the De Nada group at the Easter Market in Berridge Park, which was very good.

There were several other groups as well and loads of craft and food stalls so it was a very entertaining morning!

The biggest Lego mess in the world!!!!!! says Benjamin. |
As it was a rainy morning, a decision was made to sort out all the Lego, but it ended up with John, Benjamin, Emil and Maya making things instead, and there were some much more complicated items than the ones photographed here!
On Easter Monday all the 'boys' (Mike, John, Emil, Benjamin and friends Ben and his son Jarra) decided to go off fishing/camping at Betty's Beach, despite the weather......

Waiting for a camping spot.... |

All set to cook the fish, most caught by Emil! |
The next day it was really bad weather where they were, so the drove around a bit and managed a walk along the coast.

Here you can see where a chunk of the rock had broken off. |
While 'the boys' were away I spent a night house-sitting with Jo and she gave me a lesson on water colouring. Here's my first effort (and only one so far, chuckle) ......

It was a lovely place and me and Mike stayed there in the camper van for a couple of days again later on.............
