Fond Memories! Looking at your photos brings back such happy thoughts of our trip to Australia and New Zealand several years ago - the good news is we can still remember it, although sometimes I couldn't say what I did a day ago!! It was so nice to see pictures of both of you and also your family, and I am sure they enjoyed every minute of time spent with you. Ian, your Mom looks great, hasn't changed a bit - please say hi to her for me! I think you made a wise decision on not eating some of the food choices - not sure what part of the elephant was on that plate ........
If you go on a China trip, check and see what is offered by Chinapac, based in Vancouver - we went on one of their tours in 2004 and I know things can change over the years but it was a great tour, 13 of us and then we added Hong Kong on to do on our own at the end - worth checking to get some ideas - it was good back then, hopefully still good now!
Happy travels. You are living the dream, for sure!

Happy travels! Hi Ian and Marlene -
Just checked to see if you were still blogging and happy to see your most recent post - always thought we might like to venture to Dubai at some point ....Dietrich would love to go for the car race! We have friends who were in Dubai a few years ago and really enjoyed it. Our recent travels have kept us much closer to home but maybe we will decide to venture further from North America again one day. Both of us are still enjoying good health and love to see new places.
Heard on the radio this morning that tomorrow is Australia Day and that made me think of you and those wonderful buns ....the cinnamon ones, that is! Those were fun days for sure. I spoke to Nancy Westwood last week and she is still teaching - yikes! - she will be 68 in March and still has no plans to retire - she is number 2 on the Peel seniority list.
Hope you are both well - happy travels!
Love,
Nancy G.
