Wow look at beautiful Tasmania. This view is from the street we once lived before moving to the US. The magnificent Derwent River, looking down river over Bellerive Bluff to the Tasman Sea.

What a view! Add to that the gentle lapping of waves in the small cove just below, ah such a lovely area.

We had a wonderful Christmas with our boys and their families. So wonderful to spend time together, laughing, joking and just enjoying each other. It was a little chilly, as was all the eastern seaboard of Aust this Christmas, but it didn't dampen our sightseeing. Caught up with some dear friends, time as usual was short and precious, our plan for 2011 is to make many more trips down to make amends. Not least of all the anticipated arrival of our 1st grand daughter. Kara and Rob are due Jan 20th, so excited for them.
