Home



We have been called back suddenly to Australia, and fly out this morning.
The "tyranny of distance" we feel as expats is no more intense as it is today.
I do not know when I will be back in PNG, but hopefully in a few weeks.

    Sudden call, and leave immediately... Worse than me... ;))
    Look forward to seeing you at Blogtrotter, now departing Armenia. It leaves you however with a view that Tsar Nicholas didn’t see… ;))
    Have a great week!

    I'm sure you'll miss this sky and sea, but it sounds like travel is a must. Don't worry, we'll be here when you get back!

    Hi Jules,

    Hope all is ok at home. Will keep an eye on your blogspot. Am gearing up to start my memoirs. Have begun to record it all in notes.

    Cheers Pia

    Jules...

    hope all is going well.
    How would you like to experience NYC in winter?
    You can always "camp out" in Nyack and travel into the city by day.

    Praise the Lord for that, Jules.

    We don't expect you to arrive home to the demands of blog-ville, dear girl.

    Family, loved-ones and naturally, yourself are of the highest priority.

    Look after number one first.
