There and back

We left London a week ago. We're over jetlag now and sort of settled in to our new "home" and loving the company of the young ones. I was back at work second day back - not making much sense but physically present...it takes time.

Our last day (almost) in London was pretty special. We got to walk with Eddie to his local neighbourhood school and then while Rob helped Davey with some garden work I got to watch the divine Miss I sleeping.....(super long eyelashes resting on those plump cheeks!)





As Ivy slept I had time to admire the beautiful detailing in the front rooms of this 130 year old Victorian era house.

Then we did lunch - London style at the local pub - the lovely old Red Lion at Leytonstone. There was a huge group of Mums and bubs enjoying lunch together as we entered. they looked disappointed when we didn't join them.  We love London pubs!
It was very hard saying goodbye to London Davey, Cath and Mr E and Miss I - until next time!

Today, back to normality and back in Canberra, the pic below is the start of a series documenting our "piece of air" at C5 in Campbell as it gradually takes shape over the next 17 months or so (yes it has started!).
The large park surrounding our (non-existent) apartment is just about finished now and should be open to the public soon. It is looking beautiful.
