One of the nicest things was to fly out of a stinking hot Aussie February into Dublin and see snow covering the Wicklow hills. Being cold was a luxury!
The exhibition experience and visiting the Gaelscoileanna was just great. Kids have such great questions and make really neat comments!

We've had the dust storm from hell followed by more rain (= red mud everywhere!) and the indications are for a hot December - I really do need to get a shade-cloth frame happening for the vege garden! Spring was lovely - blossoms everywhere which I hope will translate into fruit!
Plans are afoot now to extend the back verandah into a sunroom/dining room and then I think I'll rest on my laurels for a while.
Photos to come!
