Tuesday here...Monday there...

Good morning from Sydney! We just made a battery and wine run. Now isn’t that an interesting combination! Dick plugged in his battery charger yesterday and fried it...so we needed a few batteries for the cameras, etc., and figured it would be better to buy now while we can. We also learned that Yellow Tail can’t be purchased here...it is strictly an import wine. Who knew? So, we’ll try something else. That’s always fun.

Uh oh, the zipper on Dick’s duffle bag just broke...traveling is an adventure for sure. He got it fixed, but for how long? It’s not the end of the world if it breaks again. Oh the tales we’ll have to tell!

BTW, we are extremely please that Haley is going on our church vestry! This is a critical year for our parish, with calling a new priest, so extra prayers are needed. We know you'll do a fine job, my dear!

Janelee, so sorry to learn of your friend's death. My prayers will now change for help with the grieving family, rather than healing. Earnestine is now totally healed!

I miss reading all my blogging friends, but love receiving all the comments, which arrive in my inbox. Keep'em coming!

Chunkygal, glad you will be along for the ride. Let me know how your ankle progresses in your comments.

We’ll be heading to the ship shortly...enjoy your day, y’all, or what is left of it! We sure will enjoy this new adventure!

At least it was his duffle bag zipper... hahahaha! Just Saying! I love exploring new wines. Why drink the same old, same old when a new adventure awaits! I wish I were about to board a cruise ship! But I am excited about the pajama party with my 3 SisterDears this weekend! I'm still completely jealous of you though!

Just have fun on your adventure. Tell Dick you can always buy a new duffel bag if need be. Enjoy the wine. Big hug. :)

Did you get some safety pins in case that zipper breaks again? Oh, and Pappy wants to know if the toilets really do flush the other way down there...I mean the water swirls backwards...you know what I mean! Bon voyage!

Ditto on the safety pins- and glad it was only the duffel bag too!

Maryan P. told me to be sure to tell you that she will be faithfully reading your blog even though she doesn't know how to comment yet!
