MERRY XMAS everybody. Hope you had a fabulous day with family and friends

Marjel was sorely missed  today by us all.

Short and sweet Missive  today. Woke early Breakfast of salmon, Philadelphia cheese and bagels .  Few gifts to spoil us all and then a lazy lunch by the swimming pool at Brother Pey. Quiet night back at Domain lodge building a trimaran out of LEGO

We missed our Xmas lunch at Wobble Inn but seems Prop and Rina , Renene ‘s parents did Wobble In Xmas lunch justice with our amazing neighbours . Thank you to the Frear family for spoiling us with an amazing crayfish to adorn the table back home . I was promised they have kept me some
