Second half of the Australian trip July 2014

We made it back to the house without incident, we were a little weary after the trip but we had a great time.

Back at the house in plenty of time for some refreshments.

We want to thank Lesley and Peter Alway for the use of the house in Queenscliff, we had a wonderful time.
We arrived back in Melbourne late Sunday night, we stopped to do a bit of shopping on the way back. Coleman was looking for some souvenirs to take home. He flies back on Tuesday, he has a football camp with the Sprayberry team.

Are next couple of days were spent catching up with friends and family, we had a lovely dinner with Debbie's nephew Stuart and his family.

Wednesday night we went into Melbourne where we met Charlotte and her mom Jenny for dinner. They flew in from Sydney to see Christopher.

Wednesday night in Melbourne

We were lucky enough to have some pretty nice weather the next day and were able to meet downtown for some shopping and lunch. Jenny and Charlotte were flying back to Sydney the next day we met them on the way to the airport for coffee to say our goodbyes. Hope to see them this winter for some skiing. Thank y'all for coming to see Christopher he loved seeing you.

Friday morning local cafe for coffee.

Nana, I've grown, I don't fit on the couch any more

Just a little snooze before lunch. Christopher has done so well on the trip. we are trying to wean him from the wheelchair so he has been walking a lot more than before. The afternoon nap is very unusual for him, but well deserved.

We only have a couple more days in Melbourne before we fly home. We had dinner with Sandra and Alex at a Mediterranean restaurant last night, great food, but it was so cold and windy.

The thought of having to get back on the plane for twenty some hours is not very appealing. But it will be good to get home.
