On Thursday I leave for Hong Kong to stay with my nephew Rich and his lovely wife Donna and 2 boys, Jack and Charlie. After 9 days there, spending time also sightseeing with my friend Cherril who will be there at the same time, I will fly on to Beijing to visit another friend, Alison.
How cheeky I am going away again so soon, however, while Bek and Mick are here to look after Byron, I decided to take the opportunity while I can. Bek and Mick are looking forward to moving into a home of their own at the end of the month, giving them time to settle in before their baby arrives at the end of November.
...and so the adventures continue. Hooray!

Dogs have adventures too
I took Byron with me to stay at Merricks with Michele and
Andy and I introduced him to water at the beach. For a pooch
that is otherwise terrified of water, he had a great time, chasing
the ball along the hard sand and into the water, led most of the
time by little Luna - the much older Jack Russell / dachsund. Byron played with the small waves just like a child and on one occasion raced full tilt into the water thinking that would be the direction of the ball. Wrong! He was immediately out of his depth, but that did not worry him, although he did make a very quick escape. What fun he had. At least now I should be able to coax him into the little shell paddle pool that I bought for his summer baths. Up to now, he wouldn't even step into 5 cm water to retrieve his much loved ball!
