The Arrival of Joshua & Jonty Kirsten - My Nephews
Saturday 1st December was an exciting day as my two nephews arrived safely at 1.45pm in Adelaide. They were very early, but are healthy and strong, and they're mother is doing well. The boys have to stay in hospital for the next 3-4 weeks, but I'm very much looking forward to meeting them at Christmas.

Birthday Surprise - A Weekend in Paris
Well, after thinking our last weekend European trip was to Rome, Ben surprised me with a trip to Paris for my birthday. We got up early on the Saturday morning to head to St Pancras to catch the EuroStar to Paris. I would recommend this to everyone as it was so much easier and much more pleasant than having to go to the airport! We arrived in Paris mid-morning and after checking into the hotel we went for a long walk down the Champs-Elysees and along the Seine to Ile de Cite for a long, relaxing and delicious lunch at a brasserie we found. We were glad we'd walked so far, as after lunch, we certainly needed the walk!
Saturday evening Ben had organised tickets to the Ballet, but unfortunately, the workers of the Opera House were on strike, so the ballet was cancelled. This was a bit of a disappointment, and although we went out for a lovely meal, it just wasn't quite the same. The best part of that night was that our taxi driver had heard about the Australian election results and was as happy as we were that Howard was finally out of government!!
Sunday we had another lovely day and went out to Montmartre and the Sacre Coeur and enjoyed the sunshine and watching the artists paint in the square before re-visiting the Eiffel Tower and heading back home. It was a lovely weekend and wonderful to get out of London for the day and spend the weekend just with each other.
Now the countdown till our trip home begins!
